Summer is Over

Well summer is pretty much finished again! The time flies by so quickly it seems. I closed the season with a superb 4 day clinic with Josh Nichol at his facility in Meanook, AB. As usual, learned a lot and now it is to practice it all! We really ended the summer with a two day Trick Horse Training clinic with Jackie Johnson, also a super experience. Horses had a great time learning how to perform some fun tricks. Looking forward to clinics with both of these excellent instructors in 2013.



Stars Dreamwalker and Stars Tiger Lily playing in the daisies! They have grown so much with the nice green grass and mom's with lots of milk. We are very pleased with these two foals, great quality all round.

Just a few fun summer photos of some of our young stock. Most were taken by my daughter, she is doing some very good work! It is so nice to have summer again although it is a super busy time for us. Everyone looks so plump and shiny. We are working on these young ones training, some are being started under saddle and some are being prepared for the saddle and riding in another year or so. All have great minds and are so trainable....feels pretty good. They also have pretty good conformation too so we can expect longevity as the grandparents have displayed (Babe retired from riding at 27 and Scoot still main riding/lesson horse and going strong at 18). It will be nice though when the horsefly season comes to an end!

Foal #2

Foal #2 has arrived! A stunning black fewspot filly on May 23, 2012. WAR Skylark X Magic Snow Flake. We are very pleased with this five generation girl. More pictures once she unfolds and gets her legs figured out.

All the Little Children

Not bad for a three day old foal! He was fascinated by all the Playschool kids and walked right up to the fence for pats. What a guy.....the kids sure loved him. Momma didn't mind all the attention either!

First foal of 2012

Our first foal of 2012, gorgeous black leopard colt born May 5 at approximately 1:30 AM. He is very special to me - Starwalker X DREA Kemosfancyeagle so is grandson to Scoot and Babe.

Mane Event 2012

The Mane Event was a super great time as always! Got to see so many people that I haven't seen for a year and got caught up on news! The clinics I attended were very well done and learned lots again. Didn't shop a lot but did find a few things. Krissie bought Totie a beautiful hair piece for the WPY ride - he will look so handsome this year. Certainly came back home all pumped and ready to get into working the horses again. Now if only the weather would co-operate just a little bit........
