One of my really good friends, Tyler Wetuski, needs to sell one of his horses.  It is a registered paint gelding, who is also halter-bred.  He is seven years old.  He is a great riding horse.  Tyler has been working with him for an entire year and the horse has many miles under his feet.  [...]

My mom has been teaching me about poetry.  We have learned about onomatopoeia, rhyme pattern, and personification so far.   I decided to write a poem about my favorite subject: horses.  I hope that you enjoy the poem.  It was fun to write.
The Drumming of Hooves
The horse is running in the wind.
It sounded like drums
Singing throughout [...]

Our tickets from Ryan Gray and Jason Havens were awesome!  We sat behind the chutes.  We could see them warm-up and stretch.  And, we watched Ryan advance to the finals.
Jason was knocked down to sixth place with one of the last rides of the night.  We were sad for him, but he was such a [...]

Valentine’s Day is this Sunday.  We are making special heart-shaped cookies at home.  We are thinking of ways to show people that we love them.
I like Valentine’s Day.  I like getting sweet little notes.  I love eating chocolates and candy.  I like surprising my mom and dad with a homemade card, but I also like [...]

Oh, how I wish I had a few thousand dollars!! I know exactly what I would buy.  Can you guess what it is?  That’s right, a horse.
His name is Bojangles.  He is a bay gelding.  Bojangles will do anything that ask him to do.
Last Saturday, I rode him all over the ranch.  We traveled with [...]

The first three Saturdays of December is parade season around here.  On the first Saturday, Navasota hosted its annual Christmas Parade.  It is different than the other parades because it occurs at night.  A parade in the dark is pretty with Christmas lights on floats, but on horseback it is not the most fun.  Horses [...]

My mom just published her first book, Texas Homesteader Wheat-Free Cookbook.  I am so proud of her.  I want to be published one day too.  She has inspired me!  I can write a book about the things that I love: horses.
My mom is always telling me to write about things that I know.  I have [...]

I enjoy riding my horse on the trail.  Ladd and I love to get out of the round pen and/or arena and get out in the pasture and woods.  I like to have my own private trail rodeo.
You have probably never ever heard of a trail rodeo, but I love them.  It is when the [...]
