The hairdos our horses end up with...🤣. One of the all time favorite activities is grooming and doing hair. We have definitely had some creativity over the years in this area!

The horses feel pampered. Bonds are created. Imagination/creativity is explored. Smiles are inevitable!

These two have been doing some great work together in the arena! Chi is responding soooo well to the cues and isn't making us wear ourselves out to get him to comply with requests, even when they're new to him! I'm VERY proud of L's confidence with Chi and the bond that they've formed which makes Chi so willing to follow his lead with whatever he's asking Chi to do. It is beautiful to watch. ❤️

Happy Mother's Day to each and every mom who has had the privilege of fulfilling one of life's hardest and most rewarding roles. Motherhood comes in many forms and takes on many directions but each one has a purpose that is greater than us and each one plays a special part in the lives of someone else. We hope you all had a wonderful day!

We had a great group of kids from River Oaks come yesterday for a field trip to celebrate them getting 100 or more AR points this year! They had a great time rotating through the stations filled with horse encounters, learning activities and fun games.

Then we quickly cleaned up and rounded out the week by attending the awards banquet for the Louisiana Baptist Children's Home to support a few of our participants. It was a wonderful evening catching up with people we haven't seen in a while and meeting some new faces too!

We're leaping into this week full force with regular lessons, some make-up lessons and a field trip sprinkled in at the end. If you don't hear from us this weekend it's because were passed out somewhere. 🤣🤣

Teamwork during "off" days at the ranch. Today that looks like repairing pasture gates and Josh working on the last of the ice storm cleanup while I "supervise" from the wash bay doing activity logs. (I had to relocate since sprinkles and electronics don't mix. 🫤)

On a day that was rainy 🌧️ (and HUMID 🥵), our motto sure did show out today!

Ms. Susan has let us push her a little the last few weeks and man has she found her groove. She started out by stepping over a bar that was over a foot off the ground (practicing for independent mounting), then she walked up the ramp for the first time and independently reined Freedom throughout the lesson. (I was on lead as "just in case.")

THEN...Chi decided he was going to show out with his buddy this afternoon and learn a new skill too! They have such a special bond and L.'s patience with Chi has paid off. I'm not sure who was more proud, Chi, L., or all of us witnessing their new achievements. 🥰

Bright Star Ranch, where potential and progress outshine the obstacles! (And today, they did just that!!)

We had a great turnout at today's Books in the Barn event! The barn was full of people, books, and fun. The Sterlington Mayor's Youth Council came and volunteered. They were a wonderful group of young people and great helpers throughout the entire event! Thank you to all of the parents who brought their kids out to read (several first timers), the MYC volunteers, and to Leslie Cailouet and Mayor Matt Talbert for organizing such a great group of young people and spending your afternoon with us as well!

We had a wonderful group of people reach out to us and ask about hosting a Horse Derby Bingo Night as a fundraiser for Bright Star Ranch. Not only was this a surprise (because no one ever does things like that) but this group of people are not even right here in our community. They live almost 2 hours away but had heard about us and what we do and wanted to be a part of that. ❤️ The Krewe La Vie De Belle hosted this event last night and they were some of the sweetest people! We had a great time playing bingo and getting to know them. Thank you all for your kindness, generosity, and for caring about people!
