October through January is my favorite time of the year. And the main reason for that is the holidays! And the colder weather. But with the holidays comes stress. Stress about family, stress about food, stress about leaving. And so my last day in Colorado before flying home, I spent […]
This month has been a month of appreciation for this horse. School has been stressful, life has been busy and I have been struggling. But just going out to the barn to see him brightens my day. He makes everything disappear for a while. The ability to go see him […]
If you’ve been to AAE, it’s possible you’ve run into Cupcake, the little gal who pretty much walks around like she owns the place. This petite, pure white, darling could have taught the inmates at Alcatraz what a successful escape looks like. Cupcake has been a long time resident of […]
Well it has been a hot minute since I have been able to write, because of that thing called school that gets in the way, but here we go! Dayton and I have had some fun times these last two-ish weeks! This has been the beginning of fall, aka my […]

Exactly one week from today, Dayton will be in Colorado! It still doesn’t feel real. I don’t think it will until he is here with me, safe and sound after the long journey. Words cannot begin to describe what I am feeling. Nervous, anxious and so very excited come close. […]
We’re back… and we thought we’d kick things off with a little Rascal update. Day 1 – Rascal is Born As many of you may recall, Rascal came to us April 5th after being rejected by her mother. Mom was a mustang living at a sanctuary in Northern California who […]
