Could not be more proud of these two!

Thank you, Laura Stutesman and Sarah Kress, for supporting Natalie and Inigo as they grow up together!

For the second consecutive year, our lovely CDC Memoria earned top honors for U.S. based Andalusians registered with the IALHA competing in Working Equitation. She’s such a special mare!

Let’s celebrate another great partnership! Congratulations Julie Alonzo and CDC Memoria in their High Point Breed award!!

Congratulations, Mark Klingler, on welcoming CDC Vaquero to your herd! Vaquero will be joining his Uncle Amante at Raven Grove when he gets a little older. Lucky horse!

CDC Lexi, three-year-old Iberican (Andalusian x Canadian) mare.

I love watching these two! Lara Carreira and Endiabrado. (In the warmup, getting ready to compete in the 2024 Portuguese Cup.)

Two young Ibericans (Lusitano or Andalusian crossed with Reindance's Cheval Canadien Stallion: Metístar Taj-Mahal AMARO), enjoying a lazy summer afternoon. Thank you, Tenara MoreHorses, for the photos!

CDC Vindicación (CDC Memoria x Reindance's Cheval Canadien Stallion: Metístar Taj-Mahal AMARO), Introductory level. I think this is Vinnie's fourth show. She was really fussy with her head today, but stayed with me throughout her test. I'm pleased.

Many thanks to Elizabeth Poore-Jennings and Kristina Eckert for the photos!

The best gifts in life are the memories of laughter shared, the beauty all around us, and the bonds of love and friendship.

I have been so very blessed with amazing friends, opportunities to explore far horizons, and an amazing family.

Although I miss deeply those who have gone before, I feel their presence still and know the connection is still there.

Memoria was in a great mood for today’s trail ride with Bridgett Klingler and Amante. Ears forward and delighted to step out all 9.4 miles of steep hills.

She’s tired now, but I think Amante might be feeling it a little more, poor tyke!
