Real Life Versions of Animated Disney Horses -Part 2

They may entertain us, touch our hearts or inspire us, but deep down, we are judging them. That's right, I'm back again with more Disney horses to analyze!  Part 1 included Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, and Frozen. But there's just so many horses to analyze, I couldn't put them all in one pos[...]

Real Life Versions of Animated Disney Horses – Part 1

If you have children, or were possibly once a child yourself, you've seen a Disney movie. They are next to impossible to avoid, unless you live on a remote rock in the middle of the ocean. But if you're also an equestrian, chances are that you watched these movies while also critiquing the horses,[...]

The Origins of the Horseshoe in Asia – History of the Horseshoe

Everyone knows what a horse shoe is. They have been decorations, good luck charms, the subject of legends and stories, and of course, protection for horse hooves. For the most part, we've just kind of taken for granted that horse shoes exist. But for such a basic looking piece of metal, it actually[...]

King Henry VIII and His Horses

We're doing something a little bit different here today. I bet no one was expecting this topic to come up. I wouldn't have expected it either until I happened upon a video that peaked my interest. On the Weird History YouTube channel, there's a video "Things You Didn't Know about King Henry VII."[...]

Stu is at his new barn. This was his first ride with the new trainer. I think he's a bit confused about what's going on, it's a big change for him. He's not used to being stalled and he lost all his old herdmates 😭 poor guy! But his ride went well, so well that she took him on a trail ride after to cool him off, something I've never done. She's a braver woman than I, but really that's a good thing 😂

Great day at @middleburgspringraces ! 

@thetravelingrider were trying to coordinate our outfits, we were going for: "Modern Ascot Scene in My Fair Lady." How do you think we did?

I was trying to completely make my daughter and I's outfits, but I ran out of time and couldn't finish my own dress. I made Bridgette's dress and both of our hats. As a beginner, I'm pretty happy with how they came out! Just look how elegant my daughter is as she rummages through the cheese. 

The kids liked watching the horses in the paddock, which are apparently more impressive than the horses we already own 😂 Maybe they will be thoroughbred lovers. They also ran in the stick horse race, but two horses baulked so only Bridgette actually completed the race. That didn't stop the boys from weaseling their way into the winners circle photos though! 

We also had an unexpected bonus to this trip. We visited @rescuepetconnect and there was a beautiful little dog that could have been my beloved Paxton's double. I literally cried when I saw her There was no way we could walk away, we adopted her immediately. She's been absolutely wonderful and we are so happy to have her join the family! @rescuepetconnect is a great adoption service and was wonderful to work with. I highly recommend anyone looking for a furry family member to check them out. 

This was long, but I'm just so full of emotions! 🥹🥹
