Sometimes it takes a life changing event to change the way you look at things…
Somethings I have learned over this journey I didn’t ask to be on..
Grief and Gratitude can go hand in hand….
Pain and Strength are intricately intertwined…
You can feel sadness and happiness sometimes in the same moment …
You can find the strength to move through situations life throws at you that you never thought you could…
Sometimes when you feel you can’t go on… you need to hold your head high and walk in like you own the place …..❤️
Be Brave ….
Stay Strong….
You got this my friend ❤️


Absolutely love this picture I found of My beautiful daughter is Spooks Gotta Gun out of my daughter of Mister Dual Pep that I raised ….
Ms Ava and her baby “Soul Swagger”
She is now 4 and doing so amazing!!❤️❤️

So very proud of this cross❤️

“When weariness and sadness creep in…..go catch your horse.

When grief and anger stream down your cheeks….saddle up.

When you're exhausted, and burned out from life….mount up and let your horse lead the way.

It might not change anything, but it might change everything. There is something about leather and horse sweat that heals the wounds of the brokenhearted.

I pray that if you have a horse in your life, that you let them carry some of your load. They truly are angels on earth.”

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend 🍁❤️

My handsome gelding Skye…. What a beautiful day it was for a ride… a colour explosion for the eyes🍁❤️
So grateful for this c**t with the heart on his forehead ❤️

Horses are truly Angels here on earth and lend us their wings when we forget how to fly❤️

“Don’t let the tamed ones tell you how to live”

Sometimes you have to live your life the way you want to... live outside the box... be a free spirit...most of all take chances!
Don’t let the ones that are scared to live their lives tell you how you should live yours...you only have one life to live... don’t let the Debbie Downers.... the Frady Chickens and the ones who are secretly jealous of you dictate yours ❤️❤️
Be unique
Embrace your weirdness 😜
Most of all remember to have fun along this journey we call life ❤️❤️

Life has been crazy busy lately and just got a minute to say a huge thank you and congratulations to Nicole Burkmar!!!!!!
She came to look at 1 and fell in love with 3❤️❤️❤️
Soooooo EXCITED to see how these three young ones raised here at Believe Performance Horses do for her!!
Can’t wait to see them in the breakaway roping pen!!

“Sometimes the best thing you can do is not think, not wonder, not imagine, not obsess. Just Breathe... and have Faith that everything will work out for the Best."

It is so easy to get wrapped up in all that is going wrong in this crazy world right now that we forget to see all that is right❤️ there is so much beautiful moments that we can focus on and just breath... have faith and know you are on the right path ❤️

Absolutely got the BEST message today!!
A wonderful lady reached out and told me she has my beautiful mare “Sunshine “ now named Ariat!!
Dayna Poirer-Staton and her daughter own her and absolutely love her!!
So grateful she has found her forever home ❤️🙏❤️
And soooooooooo grateful for these amazing pictures she shared!
I believe every horse deserves the love of a young girl and Ariat hit the jackpot with this family!!
So so GRATEFUL you guys found me and these pictures give me happy tears!❤️
Ariat is sired by Shiners Got Swagger and out of my daughter of Nitro Dual Doc ❤️❤️

Sometimes we are quick to judge someone who has scars...whether they are physical or emotional ones..
Scars tell stories...
Scars mean survival...
Scars means you showed up for the fight instead of running from it!
Life requires guts
It requires bravery
It requires vulnerability
Wear your scars proudly and carry on ❤

My handsome guy
“Shiners Got Swagger "
So grateful for him and all his amazing offspring ❤️

This day hits me in the feelers…

My son…Kyler

the one who made me a Mom..
The little boy who loved to snuggle and read bed time story’s…
The one who always wanted to hold my hand while he was sitting in the back seat when we drove..
The one who when little always wanted to give water bottles to the homeless when we drove by…
The softie…
The one who talked to Luna( the moon) as we drove home at night ❤️
The bug , rock and animal collector… always wanting to bring home every stray and nurse it back to health…
Always had a mischievous grin and never out grew that….
The best hugger… would hug you straight to your soul and knew even before you did when you needed one❤️
The cheerer of the underdog…. Always willing to sit and make a new friend… listened to their story over a coffee…he had a kind soul… even when his life was sometimes sideways ❤️
Terrorized his sister but loved her more than anything in this world…
Always up for a crazy adventure… even driving all over the USA…
And soooo grateful we went in so many❤️

I miss every stage of him…. From little to big…Even his rotten teenage years

And also sad of the future stages I will miss out on…. He wanted 10 kids and lots of dogs 🥲
Most days is hard to believe he is really gone…🥲

Hug your sons a little closer today
Tell them you love them…you never know when your last time is…

You need to trust the process..
Sometimes you just need to believe...

Believe that what is meant to be... will be❤️
Believe everything will work out…
Believe that you are exactly where you are supposed to be …❤️
Not everyone is going to be in your corner or understand your journey.... not everyone is going to like you... and everyone doesn’t think like you..... and you don’t need them to 😊
you don’t have anything to prove to anyone... but yourself ❤️

Stay on your path and stay strong ❤️ you got this my friend!
Just Believe ❤️

Love this mare , Ms Ava
Daughter of Spooks Gotta Gun and out of a money earner and producing daughter of Mister Dual Pep…
Can’t wait to meet her 2027 foal sired by Shiners Got Swagger ❤️
