Formerly Deep Creek Warmbloods We are breeders of quality Warmbloods and strive to breed top quality show horses. Our horses are very successful in the show ring and yet are good minded and trustworthy enough to take out for a quiet ride in the fields if we chose. They are raised in large grassy fields with creeks and rolling hills while sharing the beautiful country side with the friendly moose, deer and elk who frequenty pass through.

Lately, we have been stripping down the tack and riding in just a ba****ck pad and a halter.

Finding the holes in my training has been eye-opening, frustrating, and a total rollercoaster. I know so many equestrians understand this emotional journey—the constant highs and lows. Right now, we are working toward a smoother path by learning to recognize both my emotions and Sly’s, figuring out how to move forward, and learning how to reorganize when things feel messy.

Honestly, this work is harder than anything I’ve done before. There is a voice in your mind that constantly whispers, “It’s not working, just go back to your old patterns.” It tries to pull you back, even when you know those old patterns aren’t sustainable long-term for a truly balanced partnership.

But I can feel something ahead. It’s that exact feeling of having a word on the tip of your tongue—we are sitting right on the cusp of another breakthrough ✨

A few weeks ago, I had Jen Snow | Blended Connections out to do a reading on both of my boys. ✨

I’ve never done anything like this before with any of my animals, and honestly, I was truly blown away. She was able to channel things directly from both of them—deeply personal things that absolutely no one knows outside of my immediate family, and things I have never once shared online.

The clarity I got from our sessions was incredible. I laughed, I cried, and I’ve spent so much time since then just reflecting on it all. I feel closer to both of them now than I ever have before.

Weeks later, I’m still sitting with everything that was shared. Both of these boys are just incredibly sweet, and they truly are my greatest teachers. 🤍

Yesterday we had an online lesson, as an addition to my program, and it completely expanded my perspective all over again.

Getting to truly understand Sly is a massive privilege, but it definitely comes with its struggles. We are completely opposing energy types, which means every single day is a huge learning opportunity.

The biggest takeaway for me right now is learning to see him for the horse he actually is—not the horse I am trying to make him become. It’s hard, raw work to strip away your own expectations and just listen to the animal in front of you, but it’s so worth it.

A huge thank you to Michelle Knapp for the guidance and help yesterday ✨

Two great products, two completely different metabolisms ✨

So thankful for MadBarn’s new Omega Prime+, Sly is doing incredible on it, and his waistline is loving it too!

Slowing down. Doing what my younger self always wanted: ba****ck 🤍

The life lesson I struggle with the most, and the one Sly is constantly here to teach me:

Slow down.

Can I actually tolerate not having the correct answer immediately, without feeling this overwhelming compulsion to rush in and fix it?

It’s a funny thing—I have so much patience for all the other horses in my life. But Sly? He is easily one of the most challenging horses I’ve ever worked with, just in ways I never could have anticipated. He forces me to look at myself.

To help navigate this, I’ve joined a 3-month program that is dissecting a lot of my own thought processes. It is hard work. Really hard. Honestly, it feels like couples therapy, where we’re digging into the big questions that ultimately stem all the way back to childhood interactions and experiences.

Unpacking all of this is uncomfortable, but practicing that patience—both on the ground and in my own head—is exactly where the growth happens 🤍

Grooming and dusting…

This rainy day called for a relaxed session of grooming and groundwork 🤍

This is the second day of rain this fall and I’m already over it…I think I prefer snow ❄️

Just a little one-month update on Sly’s switch to Madbarn Omega Prime+!

We were previously using their W-3 Oil, but because Sly doesn’t need any help gaining weight, we switched to Omega Prime+ for the low-calorie, concentrated omega-3 support. The results speak for themselves—zero weight gain, and his coat is looking healthier than ever ✨

Going into the colder months, I’m also really glad he’s getting the benefits of the natural vitamin E in this formula for that extra immune and antioxidant support ❄️

Definitely a staple in our feed room going into this next season! 🍂✨

I can feel a shift.

Over the last three days, my thought patterns, training practices, and expectations have all been completely challenged.

It’s not easy. Digging up deep-rooted answers usually means sitting with things that are uncomfortable. But I’m incredibly grateful to be starting this new journey with Sly. Being immersed in a 3-month training program is pushing me deeply, but I’m incredibly thankful for it ✨

Also, a huge shoutout to my Pivo Equestrian! A big part of this course is recording our sessions, and I’ve learned so much about myself and Sly over the last three days just by watching my videos back. Love this piece of technology! ✨

Feeling very grateful for the wonderful community of women I have in my life ✨

The barn and our horses are the soil where we build roots and learn life lessons. Often, they are the ones who help us weather the hardest seasons 🤍

In this community, we support each other at every stage: as we grow, blossom, and especially when we need to shed the past to make room for new growth.

Thank you to Morgan of Ascend Horsemanship for another fun day of learning ✨

🤍 Blessed beyond words to have each of you in my life 🤍 (and many others not in this photo)
