What a big dog you are.....Jack meets his first horse.


Jenn's Boston Terrier, Jack...(aka Little Man) is introduced to his first horse ever, Buckwheat with the help of Diane and Janet. Somethings are just too cute for words..........

We are so proud of you Jenn!!


Congratulations Jenn on being brought into the Catholic Church! With focus and determination...and a little bit of help from the Lord above, you can reach your goals. We are so very honored to have you in our lives.

GREAT FIRST SHOW!!!

Time to relax and goof around......Badger's first show brought home 8 ribbons. Great job Ladies and Gelding!!! Sara jumped Badger clean over fences. (see more pictures below). Brining in 6th, 5th, 6th and 4th against some competition. Denise brought home 3 blues in the walk/trott classes too. It was a fun show. Badger was much more relaxed.
Thanks to Jenn and Janet who are always there to help and guide us. We expect some great things to happen this year. Without a doubt......there will be a story or two to tell.

Tuesday Lesson

....It doesn't get much better than this....................


Denise warmed up Badger around the ring at a trott with some spurs. So helpful!!! He was a perfect gentleman. Under the steady guidance of our MOST AWESOME trainer Jenn she was jumping cross rails and cantering out! SWEET!! Little did Denise know Jenn rose the jumps. Good Job Jenn! Now time for the pros.....Sara jumped on Badger and cantered him around the ring. In no time she was hopping over fences............two hands, one hand, no hands......THAT'S right NO HANDS!!!! You are the Bomb Sara!!!

Till next time.......here is a horsey quote..."What you allow, you teach."

Quit Pigging Around......I mean horsing around.










Here are Badger and Bodie giving the 6 month old Nemo a run for his money out of the pasture. I wouldn't try to steal any of their food if I were you...............................

Welcome Home!!!

Welcome to our new home at J&B Stables!

We are starting 2008 off with many hopes and happiness. While we miss riding with our old friends, we are enjoying the hospitality of our new hosts. Thanks to Jenny and Whit who keep a watchful eye over our most prized possession, Badger. It is truly amazing what people and dreams this horse has brought together in such a little time.

Eyes forward!! It is going to be one great year!
