Desensitize your babies. Show them EVERYTHING! Let them explore the world when they are young, you will thank yourself later.

Lucy has had quite a few experiences already, she is so desensitized she can balance things on her t**h! LOL 😂

Maybe the secret to adulthood is to not loose the part of you that braids wildflowers into your horses tail 🌼

“Consider the wildflowers, how they grow. They neither labor nor spin… yet not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these.”
— Luke 12:27

Joy was never supposed to be outgrown ❤️

Hello Team,

Please be advised that the Honest Equine HR Department is currently investigating several ongoing workplace matters including unauthorized snack theft, emotional support incidents, repeated personal space violations, and yearlings creating unsafe working conditions.

Additionally, cookie inventory remains critically low.

Tootsie from HR asks that all employees respect nap time policies, stop filing non-emergency complaints during feeding hours and remember that standing directly in the gate is not an approved workplace activity.

Thank you,
Tootsie
Head of HR

On Today’s Adventures with Hailey 🤠😂😂

Took a kiddo on a trail ride today when a GIANT nope noodle crossed right in front of us. Most horses would loose their mind… but Dealer?

Stepped on it.
Looked at the snake.
Looked at me.
Remembered the child on his back.
Looked at the snake.
Squished the snake.
Then calmly continued his job like the employee of the month he is 🤠

Meanwhile I was internally preparing my funeral and trying not to shriek. And the kiddo? Had absolutely zero idea this whole nope rope encounter even happened!

Good Boy Dealer!

The next generation of horsemen helping me teach the future generation. ❤️

One of my favorite things about this program is watching kids grow up into leaders — learning not only how to ride horses, but how to guide, encourage and care for the younger kids coming behind them. Allison, Lily and Peyton use to be the littles, and now they are helping the littles 🥹.

This is what Honest Equine is about:
patience, kindness, responsibility and passing knowledge down with grace.

Watching these kids step up and help teach the little ones fills my heart every single time. 🐴

Too young? Nope!

These two kids are just 3 and 5 years old, learning that horses aren’t just something you ride — they’re something you care for, respect and grow with.

This lesson was big smiles, proud moments and two very good horses taking care of their littles. 🐴

Dealer and Reese truly are the best teachers.
Patient, kind, forgiving and steady — exactly the kind of horses little kids need!

Never too early for horses.
Never too early for confidence.
Never too early for life lessons in the barn. ✨

R&R — Rest & Revival

This weekend was created with intention.
Not just as a riding clinic.
Not just as a girls weekend.
But as a space for women to slow down, breathe, reconnect and refill the cup they are constantly pouring out of. ❤️

R&R stands for:
✨ Rest
✨ Refuel
✨ Revive
✨ Repair
✨ Reset

This retreat is centered around horses, faith, fellowship and stepping away from the chaos of everyday life for a little while. Through riding, devotionals, campfires, meaningful conversations, worship, laughter and quiet moments with horses - my hope is that women leave feeling lighter, encouraged, and spiritually refreshed.

And the best part? You do not have to be an experienced rider to come. If you’re nervous to ride, haven’t ridden in years, or simply want the fellowship and peaceful atmosphere without pressure, there will absolutely be space for that too. This weekend is about meeting people where they are.

Sometimes the most healing thing we can do is slow down long enough to hear God again.

Horses. Faith. Fellowship. Rest.

I truly believe this weekend is going to be something special. A lot of prayers are flowing into weekend.

If you are interested in learning more message me to secure your spot! ❤️

We have a HUGE hayfield for parking which means we’ll be able to host bigger events and bring more people together. I’m dreaming of late-night races, packed trailers, arena lights glowing, and creating a place where people feel welcomed, encouraged and excited to come ride.

It’s wild to look at an empty field and already see the dream so clearly. But that’s what Honest Equine has always been to me — building something bigger than ourselves, one step at a time.

When we bought this place we said ‘It’s you and me babe - let’s swing for the fences’. And we’re doing just that!

So much work ahead. So many plans. So many dreams coming to life!!!

We had such a good day with a really good group of horses and kids. ⭐️

Alex made his first run back in over a year after having to step away for surgery. Seeing him back in the saddle on Dealer, makes me so happy! 😁

Ashland and Abby stepped it up to a whole new speed today and handled it so well. Watching confidence click into place is one of my favorite things!

Lily and Piper made their very first trip to town and did awesome. New places, new sights, new experiences — and they handled it all like pros.

Virginia and I also brought Athena and Phoenix along just for exposure and they did great. Sometimes the little wins matter most — learning to haul, backing out of the trailer, stand tied, settle their minds and just be good citizens.

Days like this remind me that horsemanship is built in the small moments. Quiet progress. Good horses. Good people. Lots of learning. I couldn’t love my job more ❤️🐴
