Lil Boots Camp 2026 — that’s a wrap! 🐴🤠✝️
This week ended up teaching us some pretty BIG lessons — and the first one came before we even got started.
With the wildfire smoke rolling in, our plans had to change. Instead of riding hard and doing the drills that were planned, we talked about what it means to put our horses first. We learned that being a good horseman isn’t just about how well you ride — it’s paying attention, changing the plan, and taking care of the horse that takes care of you 🤎
The kids asked questions, got dirty, laughed and spent plenty of time loving on the horses.
They learned how to groom, tack up, sit center, slide their hands, feed, bathe horses, cleaned stalls and understand a little more about how these incredible animals work.
However, the lessons weren’t only just about horses. We opened our Bibles! We talked about Noah’s Ark, the Good Samaritan and Adam & Eve. We talked about God, kindness, obedience, taking care of others, making good choices and what those stories can teach us in our own lives.
My main goal was for these kids was to learn more than how to ride a horse. I wanted them to learn WHY we care for them. It turns out lil boots can learn some pretty big lessons.
Thank you to every family who trusted me with their kiddos this week and to our amazing horses who continue to be some of the very best teachers we could ever ask for.
