Since Jessi and I do not have family of our own to share our life with, we have decided to share some of our special moments with the people that enjoy our website. Kid - over a 6 foot panel.... goof ball! Jessi and Kid, right after Kid's first ride! 11-19-09
My horse is a squirrel. Jasper @ 17 months old.
Jasper is adorable... he's just adorable! November 09
Jessi is getting DiNozzo flag broke. He has a big'ol butt!
My goal
in life is to be as good of a person my dog already thinks I am. Jasper and his proud mom. (Glenda) LOVE LOVE LOVE my fat, dirty baby boy! "Look at Jessi Jasper so she can take our picture!" Can you see Jasper is looking at my finger? September 09 Tulsa and Jessi
Do Not Go Where The Path May Lead ~ Go Instead Where There Is No Path And Leave A Trail. Emerson
Jessi and Kid, he is really going to make a big horse, remember, Kid is just a 2 year old!
Glenda and Tulsa - okay, Tulsa looks GREAT... I, on the other hand left my fashion sense in the drawer this morning!
Ever have one of those days when it feels like everyone is after you?
Jasper in the pen @ 13 1/2 months, first saddling. Tulsa in the pen with Glenda (Jessi sure got some good photos!)
Anyone that says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain...
Kid's first saddling. Jessi and Kid, Kid's third saddling and the first time that Jessi got on him. Kid is totally at ease..... what a good boy! Jessi on her way down, Kid was calm and relaxed the whole time... we are very proud of him.
Here are some wild photos... This is a mare that we bought to ride... she was sold to us as old lady broke! So who's mom or grandma do YOU want to put on Dona? The scary thing is that someone could have bought this mare for their child to ride, she was advertised and sold as dead broke. 7-10-09 It has been brought to our attention that in the photos this mare's head is tied down. We understand that many people that get on our website are not experienced horsemen (or women). A horse with it's head tied down can't catch the air this mare is catching (catching air is referring to how high she is rearing in the air, rearing is a horse "standing" on it's back legs... very bad behavior), see photos directly below for an example of a horse with its head tied down. These photos of this mare were taken right AFTER the first time that we tried to get on our new mare that we bought as "granny broke". The only reason we had the camera outside was to take photos of our neat new mare being rode. Imagine our shock as these were the only photos that we had the opportunity to take.
These photos are examples of our stallion Kid with his head tied down. Notice in most of the photos the lead ropes are loose. He is considered "soft or yielding" to the ropes which is very good. These photos were taken during his very first saddling, he was not a "broke" horse or "trained" horse in these photos. A "broke or trained" horse will not fight pressure on it's head nor will it intentionally exhibit behavior that is dangerous to its handler or rider. If it does, it can not be considered a "broke" horse. Compare these photos to the ones of the mare directly above that was purchased as "old lady broke".
DeNozzo Jasper (Buckleys White Gold) Along the same lines for the people that enjoy our website but aren't really horse people... here is a little trivia for you: what you see in the 2 photos above are examples of bites of 2 different colts at about the same age. The first photo is of a dun colt we had named DeNozzo the second is a colt we had that we called Jasper (Buckleys White Gold). As you can see DeNozzo's top and bottom teeth match perfectly; he has an even bite. Jasper's top teeth are not even with his bottom teeth, he is "parrot mouthed" which is very undesirable and is genetic. Jasper was a brother to the little filly that we lost at the bottom of our "Horses" page. Don't you know, pillows are for puppies! Morning chores, I'm still clean.....forgot to brush my hair.... typical!
Thank you Jesus, I needed a hug today....
Hey, where's the phone? .......true story Ever have one of those days? "Where's the whiskey?" 7-22-09 We sold Donna right after this to be used as a broodmare ONLY... YIKES!! We felt like this was possibly the most evil, dangerous horse we have ever bought. There really was a purpose for the slaughter horse market. This is a prime example of walking ALPO. Once again (see example of this mare above), this horse does not have it's head tied down... scroll back up the page to the white colt that is being "ground driven" by the woman wearing the red boots, orange shorts and blue tank top... (one of my VERY favorite outfits) ... in those photos the colt is being ground driven for the first time, notice how sweet and calm he is behaving compare to the crazy fit this "broke" mare is throwing.
Clay Walker... what a GREAT concert!! We had TOO much fun!
"Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt and dance like you do when nobody's watching"
We have never measured Kid but Jessi is 5'6" tall. Amber wasn't real sure that she wanted to be my riding horse! Jessi and Pete Jessi took this while she was driving through North Dakota to pick up my new mare Amber, notice the snow is almost over the fence posts... Burr...
Titan's first saddling... yee haw!! (15 year old stallion)
Jessi and Titan, within 30 minutes of his first saddling. So you mean your REALLY not supposed to use laundry soap in the dishwasher? What's up with that? Duckie is peaking under Goldie... TOO CUTE!
Jessi, Shorty, Chris and Kayla (Easter 2010)
Miss Kiddy during one of her first rides (with Glenda).
Dear Santa, this is all I want for Christmas..... Thanks Bunches! Glenda
oh yeah..... baby!
Jessi and Miss Appy
"Some people are like a slinky
Here we are at the David Alan Coe concert in Tulsa OK.
Sadie, my designated driver.... The Royal Lipazaner Show was very cool! Cherry Pie looking over the back of the couch... how cute is that?
Zip and Jessi, just off of the trailer. Me (Glenda) and Dandy One Life One Chance
The Doobie Brothers!!!! Jessi took the pictures... I was having way Too Much FUN!
Jessi halter breaking Spotty Butt. Jessi and Baby Spotty We went to the Willie Nelson concert... that was him way down there... Me and Dandy... I loved this horse! Jessi and Scout ... she can ride anything with hair!
These three went through the wreck with me in March 2006. The photos of the fillies were taken right after the wreck. God simply reached his hand down from heaven and held onto us through this wreck. There is no other explanation. Even though the truck rolled twice ... my hat stayed on . All joking aside, both horses, myself and Rowdy walked away from the wreck a little rattled and with a couple of small scratches (broken windows in the truck) but not a one of the four of us lost a drop of blood due to the wreck! When the truck started rolling, the bumper pull trailer separated from the truck and slid to a stop on its side. The worse tornado in the history of Lawrence, KS went through that very spot right after we were there. The man following right behind us told the highway patrol that it looked like a giant hand picked the trailer up and threw it around the truck. It sure felt like it too from inside the truck! The only thing I know is that I am so thankful that Jessi did not make the trip with me as one of us would have been sitting in the passenger seat and the story would have been much different. We eventually donated the dun filly to a petting zoo after she set back several months later, broke her lead rope and her tail bone when she landed on her butt! She looked like a pleasure horse that had it's tail nerved after that. The palomino filly was not the quality that we were looking for to build our breeding program, so she was traded for a Mexican saddle that anyone could buy for $75 at their local sale barn on horse sale night. But, it looks cute sitting in Jessi's room to this day and it doesn't eat! Jessi and Prince "Courage Is Being Scared To Death-But Saddling Up Anyway" John Wayne
Baby Poncho
This one sucked! Did you know that a ride in an ambulance is VERY expensive... even if you can't remember that it happened! The estimated speed of the truck that hit us broad side was in excess of 80 MPH, the driver told the law that he did not see us... yeah... those snow white trucks are hard to see.... Neal McCoy concert... TOO COOL!.. Yes! I was dancing! And, he is gorgeous!!
More of me and Dandy... kiss kiss
OK... OK... I promise.. I will not wreck these trucks!
Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive
quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret
anything that made you smile.. Jessi shoeing in Arizona... I'm holding the horse.... hard work! REO Speedwagon! I looked REALLY stupid but they put on such a GREAT concert!
Poncho LOVES his new toy!
"Real Integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that no body's going to know whether you did it or not."
Gus (Smoke Bar Tease) learning that he really can hold his foot up... first time to have his hooves trimmed ..... at 3 years old... All done and not a scratch on him... pretty boy! He'll be beautiful if we can ever get enough weight on him!
About another 2 steps after this photo was taken he drug me through the pasture... Gus (Smoke Bar Tease) finally learned to lead behind our truck. Although he tried and tried, he never managed to drag the truck away... On a lighter note, the truck did a real good job of dragging him!
Jessi and her boyfriend Shorty were in a wreck! Hey... I wasn't anywhere around this one... The fog was so thick you couldn't have cut it with a chainsaw! I'm a mom so my second question was why the crap where you guys out in the FOG? They were pretty scrambled but although the truck did NOT survive they were a little sore but fine. Shorty's new truck is nice! Woody in Arizona
Me and Cassie... we will miss her forever...... cancer took our baby
Indy and Jessi Indy and Glenda If God lets us have our animals in heaven that we lost here on earth, we will have our best friends with us. Indy laid down to roll for the fun of it and displaced her colon. She was in foal to Dandy and her baby filly died with her.
