It’s a wrap! We had a blast taking the minis to a magazine photo shoot! No one bit the model (or snotted on her many white outfits...) so gold stars all around! 🐴🐴🐴
It’s fall issue but we will keep you posted once it hits the press!

The weather finally cooperated and we got some sun for our outing to a local schooling show! Greta continues to prove she is a unicorn. Capi was a very brave boy for his first show outing and did his first ever dressage test!
Thanks to the folks at Red Gate Farm, LLC for providing such a wonderful show! We had a blast!
Also provided for you enjoyment is Greta once we got home...we call this her “off duty” unicorn look🙈

We got lucky and had some beautiful sunny weather for our first off property jump school of the season! 🌸☀️🐴🌺
Greta showed the geldings how it’s done and was her usual magical unicorn self. 🦄💜
Baby horse Sunny managed to hold it all together and did not spook at the start box (he realllllly thought about it). 🐴😱
Jimmy jumped around like he champ that he is and gave his little bros a bold lead over some scary intro logs. 🏆
Capi - our newest addition - proved to be a solid citizen and took it all in stride we can’t wait to watch him grow! 🐴💙
Gold stars for all the ponies and riders! Thankfully we are better at wrangling ponies then we are at taking group selfies....
