Happy Halloween from Leonardo ❤️

10/31/2026

A Halloween party was had with the folks at coastal manor today and there were hens, a bunny, and two kids and some of them sang into the microphone for karaoke and two of the singers were chickens 🤣

“Ostrich Junior and Limu” the Brahma hens wore chicken diapers for the first time! They strutted through the hallways to visit their friends, get snuggles, and eat treats! Pom Pom the Teddywidder bunny brought smiles as well. 🩷🩷🩷🐰🐓🐓

Lately there have been lots of beautiful moments at the farm and breakthroughs in both groundwork and riding. Hard work and consistency are paying off for all of these kiddos. Too numerous to list them all but here are some that stand out:

Misha is trotting on her own on Teddy on the correct diagonal, while steering and looking where she’s going with her heels (mostly) down. Amazing. Especially on Teddy. This is a huge accomplishment and I am so proud of her!

Eriulynn jumped for the first time! She was full of giggles and her first little jumps and huge smile is stuck on replay in my head!

Quinn’s confidence has shot through the roof and she is learning her diagonals and her position has improved so much!

Sylvia is putting the bridle on all by herself, talking herself through the steps and problem solving when things go awry, hooray! She too is learning her diagonals and her position has improved a bunch too!

Edie has been practicing a lot of groundwork and is getting better at listening to her pony, adjusting, and her timing is pretty on point! She is also practicing braiding and even helped braid for a horse show!

Flora is cantering on the lunge line! She is loving it and getting better at it every time! She asks if she can canter the second she sees me!

I am so lucky to teach all of these kiddos good horsemanship and they are always taking good care of their ponies and making sure they are happy and rewarded for taking care of them in the saddle. 🩷🩷🩷🦄🦄🦄

The before and after of MeHJA fall finals. Jewely was feeling a bit sassy when the wind picked up and the temp dropped so it didn’t go as we’d hoped but there were some good moments.

Edie did her first ever Showmanship class and got 2nd!
Walk/trot final Equitation 3rd
Walk/trot final pleasure 4th

Lots of work to get ready for a show and when it’s yucky weather or things don’t go your way it’s tough especially for a child. But honestly we should be grateful and honored these ponies let us sit on them at all and take them places just so we can have fun with them. So we still spoiled her when she got home even if she was yeeehawing it cantering and jumping her trot poles course! 😜

Thanks to the lovely people at LAR who make these shows work smoothly and to Erica for trailering bright and early for us again!

We were feeling the love at Falmouth house at Ocean View today where we chatted about how wonderful Willow was and how soft and playful Pom Pom was acting today! And we love the little sign out in front of the living room! ❤️🩷❤️🩷
