Horses have taught me so much—patience, how to stay calm during the unpredictable, responsibility, love, self-reflection, and even how to control my heart rate when the world starts spinning.
Today at the Bluebonnet Horse Expo & Rescue Horse Training Challenge Bluebonnet Expo, they taught me something else: it doesn’t matter what your background is. Consistency, hard work, and a little bit of hope can make up for 90% of what life throws at you.
But I think we already knew that. ❤️
Today, I watched rescue horses of all shapes, breeds, sizes, and backgrounds walk into the ring and act like seasoned show horses.
Bandera- Bluebonnet Equine Humane Society Bandera showed us what time, patience, and consistency can really achieve. Although he didn’t find his person today, he’ll move on to another foster home, where we hope they’ll continue all the great work Margo has done with him. He’s come such a long way, and I know his person is out there.
Trenadie- Bluebonnet Equine Humane Society Trenadie found herself a new kiddo! ❤️ Her new rider hopes to jump her and maybe even do some eventing with the help of their trainer. Brenna and Laeken worked so well as a team with her over the summer and got to dip their toes into the world of training horses. Seeing all of that work lead to her finding her next person was pretty special.
And you'll all be proud of me...
I came home with an EMPTY trailer. 😂
Although, I’ll admit, it was close a few times. 👀🐴
Ask me tomorrow—or, technically, later today—if we’re doing it again next year. 😂❤️
