Mr Almighty Scribbles

This was awesome! I just had to post that i saddled my yearling gelding by my stallion for the first time ever and he never bucked or tried to run off! Here are some pictures and a short video.

RS Together Forever

So my boss has given me a two year old filly by a mare named Tie It Together by his stallion Missin Lena. I've been working with this filly since only the middle of October and can't believe how amazing she is! I've never broke a horse on my own and have been very scared of getting bucked off since a bad accident with a three year old i had bought a couple years ago. Anyway this filly hadn't been handled since she was a weanling except for a couple weeks last year. The first couple days we just lunged her with the saddle on and then i got on her. She was loping around the round corral on only the fifth ride, and now we are loping around the covered arena and working circles and sliding stops! Our goal for her is to run the poles, barrels, and keyhole next year at Pinto World in June. Will keep updating on this amazing filly!

Buffalo Roundup

This is a great annual event that we now go on! On Tuesday, October 21st we left and went up to Antelope Island to do the Buffalo Roundup. It was great fun, we had everyone there this year. My mom & Dad, me & trevor, and my aunt teri. Trevor's mom's horse tried to throw him every morning when we started out but he held on tight. Reggie decided that he wanted to be up with the buffalo the whole time so it was like riding a racehorse, him trying to run and me not letting him. We all had a blast! Pictures can be seen here

Mapleton Trail Ride

We finally got to go on the Mapleton trail ride! It was a georgous ride! Great for training young horses and horses that are shy about water. We had to go over bridges and walk on rocks through the water. It was a blast. I rode our new bay mare and trevor rode his mom's mare. Both were great! My mom's horse dunny decided that he didn't like water at first, but after two crossings he decided it wasn't too bad! Here are some pictures from the ride. We will hopefully be going up next spring and will be taking our young horses up with us! Pictures can be seen here!

New Horses & cold wet weather

Well, we were going to go up to Mapleton for a trail ride, but it got canceled due to the bad weather, so we spent the day hanging out and cleaning house. It's crazy to keep a house clean with three dogs and four cats!

Trevor's mom decided she wanted a new horse so we got her a beautiful buckskin mare that is sweet as a button!

We also ended up putting my mom's old cutting mare and my big racehorse down on friday night due to health problems and old age. It's been rough times as we had to put my mom's three dogs down a week ago.

Good news is we decided to find a mare for my mom or me to ride of buffalo roundup. We ended up getting a beautiful bay mare that has done cutting and reining! She is going to be a great horse for riding club! After 6 years of not being rode i was able to jump on her and go for it! I absolutely love her! Pictures to come soon!

We'll be going back to mapleton on saturday to try our trail ride again so look for pics of that coming soon!

Doctor Update!


Yesterday we took trevor to the doctor and he got a clear report that he is doing good! We also went and signed on our house. Lower interest rate so it's all good! Soon i'll get pictures of our house, it's still in the works as to getting finished!


I was also finally able to pull some pictures off my camera from when we took bruce's son to Elko, NV. Here is a picture of him. He is doing so good! He will be started under saddle this winter so hopefully we can show him at the Pinto World Championships in Tulsa, OK June of 2009. He is so much like his dad, it makes me sad but happy at the same time. He took third!
