November has passed rather quickly. We made it through my birthday, through Thanksgiving, through black Friday, through small business Saturday, through Cyber Monday, and of course, 'No Stirrup' November.
It's been a fantastic month with mostly warm weather too. And, we finally got a little rain. Life is good!

Hello! We've been busy this fall so I guess I have forgotten to do a recent update.
Since I last updated, we had a cook-out at our house, we competed at a horse show, we went to the state park for a trail ride, we went on vacation, and we went to another horse show.
Kemmerson made her leadline debut on Gizmo at the first show and won 2 blue ribbons! Winnie showed Gizmo in the w/t and won 3rd & 4th. Rachael brought Spencer along for just some schooling and he was perfect.
For the trail ride we hauled over to the state park and Maddie rode Ben & Tara rode Spencer. They were both fantastic and really enjoyed getting out of the arena and doing something different.
At the second horse show, Kemmerson competed on Gizmo in leadline again and was again rewarded with 2 blue ribbons! Winnie again competed on Gizmo in the w/t and won 2nd & 3rd. Laura & Sandman joined us for the show and they won 3rd & 4th in their jumping rounds. And Amber & Scooter made their hunter debut and won 3rd & 3rd in jumping.
We are very proud of our competitive team as well as our lesson program team. Plus a big Welcome to our newest team members: Haley, Rachel, Emma & Amber.

I'm back with a more detailed update from earlier plus I added the pictures.
The first row of photos shows Gizmo competing with Laura to win 2nd place. The 3rd photo is Winnie taking Gizmo for a bareback ride at the show.
The second row is Sandman competing with Laura and winning reserve champion with a 1st, 2nd, 2nd. He also took 2nd place in his open warm-up class.
The rest of the photos are from the show and rides at home. Tara and Ben are in a few of the pictures too.
Remember that Sandman is for sale!
I'll get pictures of Zeus on here this month. Stay tuned. September is going to be phenomenal.

We were blessed with a super month of August. It was really nice having our team members return from their summer adventures and the barn was buzzing with riders again. We added the 2 new horses mentioned below plus another one, named Zeus. September has started out excellently as well. We horse showed yesterday and won top ribbons in every class, plus we picked up a new team member too.
I am off to church now or I would post details and photos. But I needed to at least get something posted since we are starting a new month. I will return soon with better details.

It has been a fantastic week! As I said below, Molly came all the way from England to visit and picked up 2 rides on Spencer. Laura returned from teaching riding at the summer camp and brought a horse back with her. Welcome Sandman! He is going to be on the market soon so keep your eyes open if you are shopping. Spencer is beside himself to have a friend again. He is sooooo happy. Makes me smile. Since Sandman was coming from camp, I also had her bring me a pony from camp. Welcome Gizmo! Gizmo will be used in the lesson program. Rachael returned from her summer riding internship in Virginia and has been anxious to use her new skills at the farm. She rode Ben bridle-less this week and he was awesome! His very first time trying the bridle-less route. And Tara returned from her teaching in Texas. It is really wonderful to have all of our smiling faces back.

Happy August!!
I hate that this means that school is starting back up, because I love summer vacation. But good luck to all of you as you return to school. Go make those good grades and learn as much as you can.
Last update I mentioned that some students might be stopping in for lessons. And YES! Molly took a vacation from Europe and came to visit and ride Spencer!

Hi! I tried to update a few days ago but my computer wasn't cooperating.
How has your summer been? Ours has been great. HOT, but great. Summer in Georgia is always HOT, so it is to be expected.
Since I last updated, we have been mainly riding and keeping the horses as cooled as can be. Maddie went to Germany to teach for 1/2 the summer and is now back and ready to ride! Alex started lessons over the summer and Whit & Martha picked up a couple of summer lessons. Shalena picked up some feeding shifts plus a jumping lesson, and Elizabeth stepped in and helped with feeding too. We do miss Rachael & Laura & Tara though, because they are still away on their summer adventures. Rumor has it that some others might be stopping in for a ride or two this summer, so hopefully by next update they will have joined us.
Stay cool everyone!

Above is a photo of Winnie competing at the Spring Break Farm AAHJA show. Winnie is riding a pony from High Point farm under instruction from Alex. This is Winnie & Mr. Incredible (Cody) winning their beginner w/t u/s class and they also won a 4th in their equitation class. This was Winnie's first time showing Cody and her first show since March.
