TWO SPECIAL BLESSINGS

We have two very special young women in our lives and I thank my stars for them every day.  They have always been good children, good adolescents and now they  have graduated
high school with honors, AND starting
at University this fall. 
Ignore me I am a doting auntie!

Karly, Robin, Taylr
 
I am so proud of the way they turned out, and their mother did a great job raising them and giving them a great sense of who they are.

It just seems impossible that they are not the babies, who are twins, we loved so much.

Karly spent this month of June showing her
paint gelding "Spot" at the Pinto World Show in Tulsa, OK and then on to the Paint World Show in Ft. Worth, Tx.  
Taylr came along this time and has decided she is going to follow suite and start showing again also. Her activity has been cheer leading but now she has decided to give it a go again since she had so much fun at the shows this month.

 Karly started riding Spot as a 2 year old, trained him herself and she has competed for the past 3 years on him at the World level.
Spot is a 5 year old now, so his winnings are very impressive for such a young horse, but he is such a sweet gentleman!

Karly was 7th in Western Plesure  at the APHA World show

add to that this year's Pinto World finishes; 3rd in Trail, 

Reserve World Champion Ideal Pinto Western Horse (which they won the last two years),

Reserve World Champion Pinto World Western Pleasure (which they won last year), 

and 

Pinto World Champion Disciplined Rail. 

All the hard work has paid off and it couldn't have happened to a NICER young woman!

Next year we will be looking forward to cheering Taylr on also!

Chance a horse with a lot of Love

This is my cousin Robin showing Chance at the World Show this past summer in yearling Stallion.

This is OBVIOUSLY COOL CLU, his barn name is Chance and I just found out the little sweetie is going to a new home in Indiana tomorrow. I called him mine, and when one of his owners e-mailed me and said she was delivering a horse to Indiana.........

I got a lump in my throat!

I e-mailed her back and said "you aren't selling one of (my) horses are you"......... well, she was.

He is the most adorable, sweet, young man you would ever want to meet. I fell in love with him this past summer and my cousin Robin told me I would. I doubted it, because I am a Appaloosa or a Quarter Horse person, but she was right, I did. So I learned to never say never............. The temperament on this yearling stallion (gelding now, oops) is so amazing. The word is just plain sweet. I wish his new owners lots of luck with the sweet boy and I hope they have great success showing him. I know he will give them a lot of love, because that is what he does, he gets that from his daddy, Cool Heir.

Spot is helping Karly read Cosmo! =) They are bored...

Family is a true blessing! We love you girls

T...we miss you like crazy!

My mom and I visited several days during the Pinto World Show in Tulsa to watch Karly and Robin show. Karly was showing Cool N Candid "aka" Spot. Robin showed the yearling stallion Chance. After the show they went on to Ft. Worth, Texas to show at the Paint World Show. It was such fun to see them both. We missed seeing Taylr but hopefully we will see her soon. She was going to cheerleader camp & dosen't do the horse thing anymore. I miss them since they moved to Kentucky. Cool N Candid and Chance are sired by Cool Heir, APHA
