Vivi (9) did an outstanding job riding our trotting horse, Duke today! She is learning all about posting!! She was even to take the reins and ride him all by herself at a trot! I can’t wait to see these two continue to thrive and I know this young lady has no fear and will be cantering him on the trails soon!!

And Dora wants to say thank you to Vivi for pampering her, fly spraying and giving her a nice cold bubble bath in this hot weather! I just love her passion for horses!!! Way to go sweet Vivian!! ☀️💜🐎

Bucket list adventure for this awesome family…

Mrs. Wanda and her Grandson, Derek and Great Granddaughter, Heidi (15) came out to interact with horses and ride with us today! This lady has a heart of gold as she has helped a lot of children and families in need at Heth-Washington Elementary School so it was a pleasure to return the favor and teach her Grandson and Great Granddaughter how to ride a horse! I think they were on cloud 9 with Mario! Heidi was a complete natural in the saddle. We even got her Dad on a horse for the first time! Now, if only we can convince Miss. Wanda that she can do it too!! Our Mario loves his purpose, and takes care of his riders!! ❤️

An entire Texas town lined the streets wearing green today for one heartbreaking reason.

These young ladies are 4h students that came to our farm for lessons and worked to work them off! These are my kind of girls!! They have so much tenacity to learn, passion, and an outstanding work-ethic. I love what horses can teach us! These young ladies are preparing for horse show this weekend, and their hard work is paying off! They definitely deserve blue ribbons in my book as they are staying persistent and willing to make changes to improve!! Proud of these amazing horse girls!

Our old man Mario living his best life! He’s in his ac (all fans on him) no flies, and no hot sun beating down on him.

We are ready for cooler temperatures. 🥵🐴

Our sweet Caroline (5) and her Duke! She had to ride when it was soooo hot, so they just walked and relaxed. We gave him a nice cool bath afterwards. These two have such a special bond.

And they are off! 🐎🐎🐎

These two young kiddos, Addie and Kaysen have been taking lessons and learning important fundamentals and now they are riding for the 1st time by themselves!! They did such an outstanding job in the saddle today with our infamous Mario and Dora the Explorer. Can’t wait to hit the trails together soon!
