Our Journey Stables

To say we had a crazy Saturday is an understatement!

We started with a flat trailer tire at 7:30am. Then a fixed tire. Then another trailer tire trying to fall off at 8:15am! So we ended up at the Sheetz with 4 horses and only 1 working trailer 😬 thanks to some amazing student parents, Ava Botterio and Anna Beatty, barn super mom Emelie P. Myers and my mom, we managed to get Marlee back to our barn safely and Lenny, Adeen and Sky to Lake Waccamaw for our show!

Big thank you to Southeastern NC Game Show Circuit for giving us the extra 15 minutes to get our crew ready to ride!

Then we had a medical emergency at the show for one of our barn families but everyone is ok now!

Big thanks to every single person who helped make yesterday happen and for our barn families all hanging in and supporting each other.

To say we were exhausted is an understatement. But all the girls held strong and did their best at the show despite the crazy day!

Multiple PR's yesterday and multiple Champion Ribbons!

A very special recognition for all of the riders that have chosen to work with Lenny the Fish Slayer rather than be concerned about being the fastest. It takes special horse people to put aside the competition and focus on the training. I am extra proud of all of those young riders who see the potential and fun in training little Lenny the Fish Slayer. They had a very successful day yesterday and they all worked as a team to help him be his best self! Bailey, Cora, Haley, Lockleigh, Elizabeth and Amelia, you guys rock!

*not all riders are pictured! Our older kiddos were totally worn out by the end of day and forgot pics 😂*

Introducing our new Public Relations Team! Lenny and Eclipse make the perfect pair for public events. Eclipse is calm and accepting while Lenny is goofy and loving. They did amazing with their jobs this week.

Eclipse went to support Evelyne at her softball game. Then Lenny and Eclipse went to a local assisted living facility for Kentucky Derby Day!

Big congratulations to all of our riders this weekend! They had a fantastic show!

Everyone learned and grew as horse people! And we brought home some ribbons!

A special congratulations to Emerson, Ally and Peyton for winning the high point (champion) of their division!

Missing some riders in these photos but everyone who attended did a fantastic job!

Big thank you to all the parents who help keep the shows running smoothly! Especially Emelie P. Myers who always goes above and beyond!
