“Horses are so expensive.”

I agree, they cost me a lot everyday.

Horses cost you your selfishness.
Having horses means everyday you are alive you must consider someone’s needs before your own, multiple times a day. Even when you’re away from them arrangements must be made, this builds character and gives us self worth.

Horses cost you your ego.
Right when you think you have it figured out, you will undoubtedly be presented with a humbling experience either in the arena or out. They will force you to reach out for help when your expertise is maxed out. If you are wise, you will realize life is like this too. Maybe we should reach out for help more frequently and we would get further.

Horses cost you your laziness.
You will never progress with an equine partner by leaving it turned out, just as you will never progress by staying checked out. Do the work and you will get somewhere.

Horses cost you your heart.
They never fail to find a way to touch us deep within even (and especially) when we are feeling cold to the ways of the world. There’s something special about getting to interact with a being that becomes softer when we soften. We should learn to respond to one another similarly.

Yes, horses are so expensive. But everything they’ve ever cost me has also made me.👏🏻

Great weather to get the wheel lines running. Lots of help from the boys and a few trips for parts later, success 🤞. We also had two days working on clearing a beaver 🦫 dam that had our drain valve completely submerged so we couldn’t get it closed.

Nothing sounds quite as good as the ch ch ch of a sprinkler…

Well last officer day of breeding season. We pulled Quigley from his last little herd of mares, the late foaling mamas who weren’t far enough along in the initial round of ultrasounds. That was quite uneventful until we took him past the pen of the confirmed in foal mares that have been down on the river and were waiting to be turned back out with the bunch. He wanted to assure them not to forget him while he was gone 🤣. Quigley is headed back into roping and planning to hit up some local jackpots now his main job is finished. We also brought three young fillies, one two year old and two yearlings to summer with the broodmares and learn all kinds of manners and about herd life.

The majority of our broodmares have graduated from riding horses into motherhood. Here is a short video from 2021 when Drift of Blue Shadow, barn name Shadow, was the main mount for our 10 year old son. She was 6 at the time and this pair competed in the Montana State Finals for youth Versatility Ranch Horse and won the Junior Division. This spring Shadow gave us a stud c**t by Blue Peptolena that will be looking for a family of his own come weaning

Dam is our own daughter of Paddy’s Irish Whiskey. She was a riding horse and barrel racer until an accident cut her career short and propelled her into the broodmare band. Her foals are known for their great bone and thickness, personalities, looks, and versatility.

Second to last foal was born this morning. Out of Highbrow Willow 406 and by Masked Gun LTE $90,000 this little filly is exactly what we were hoping for!

Can’t say enough good things about the cows we got from Bar JR Gelbvieh by Belt, MT. In the last day and a half 3 of the 4 first calve heifers we purchased have calved unassisted and are great moms. They stash their babies out of the wind and keep an eye on them. We really had to search for the one and he ended up going on a little adventure. We got him slowed down and safely back to mom. Boys are loving our little herd!
