Back to school… back to routines. 🍎🐴

There’s something about this time of year that makes life feel ready for a reset.

The kids are heading back to school, summer schedules are winding down, and we start settling back into more normal routines.

And I’ll admit—I have a routine of my own I need to find again.

Since my retinal detachment last year, my regular exercise routine pretty much disappeared, and I’ve never quite managed to get back on track.

So maybe September is my reminder that we don’t have to wait for January to start again.

Riding. Exercise. Meal prep. Going to bed on time.

Whatever has gotten away from you…

What routine are you trying to get back to this fall?

It’s back-to-school week for a lot of local families! 🚌📚

Just a little reminder to give yourself some extra time, slow down in school zones, and keep an eye out for kids, buses, and new traffic patterns as everyone gets back into the routine.

Wishing all the students, parents, teachers, and school staff a safe and happy start to the new school year! 💛

Well, this was an unexpected way to end the day. 😂❤️

Meet Rosie. 🦘

Yes, I met a baby kangaroo at Tractor Supply of all places — and yes, she absolutely made my day.

Dressage friends — did you know the U.S. Dressage Festival of Champions is happening this weekend? 🐴

I used to go every year when it was held at Gladstone, NJ, and I absolutely loved it. There’s nothing quite like getting to watch that much really good dressage in one place.

This year’s Festival is a little different than the version I remember from Gladstone. It features national championships for some of the country’s top developing horses, young riders, U25 combinations, para dressage riders, and other up-and-coming talent.

In other words, you may be watching some of the horses and riders we’ll be hearing a lot more about in the years ahead.

USEF is livestreaming the competition on the USEF Network, so if you love dressage — or just want to spend some time watching beautiful horses and talented riders — it’s definitely worth checking out.

You don’t have to compete to be a real rider. 🐴💚

I used to love showing, but these days most of the riders at our barn have no interest in competing — and I actually love the atmosphere that creates.

They ride because they love horses. They want to learn, become better riders, spend time with their barn friends, and have a place where the rest of the world disappears for a little while.

There’s no pressure here to chase ribbons or maintain a show schedule.

If showing is something you want to do, wonderful. But it isn’t the price of admission to being part of the horse world.

Sometimes the goal is simply a better ride than last week, a little more confidence, a new skill, or a couple of hours spent doing something you love.

Your riding doesn’t need a ribbon to matter.

You know that moment when you realize fall is getting close… 🍂

Shorter days?
Cooler nights?
The first leaves changing? Horses starting to fuzz up? Pumpkin spice appearing on absolutely everything? 😂

👇 What’s the first thing that makes YOU think, “Yep… fall is coming”?

08/25/2026

After a long day of turnout, I think they’re trying to tell me something. 😂

Can you take the hint?

They’re ready to come in. 🐴

Quiet Sunday on the farm. 🐴🌼

Nothing exciting.
Nothing planned.
Just horses grazing, flowers blooming, and a few peaceful minutes before the week begins.
