Our Sunshine in Life at the Big Day

This horse is magic! I am so proud over him that it is sometimes unbelievable!

He is smart, polite, educated and so nice to my daughter when they are together. Never anything bad, quiet the opposite. He teaches my daughter about riding and life.
Last Sunday was a competition at Nordstetten and Olivia signed up. It was her first big event but Sunny had done them before.

Some pep talk before.
Olivia entered the dressage Reiter WB and won in her group. We were so happy, not mainly for first place, but for getting back up in the saddle again.  After her horrible riding accident back in december 2014 when she broke her femur, it also broke her confidence. Actually, our lives changed a lot that time.
Lena Kiefer is helping Olivia before entering.
And some cute girls were admiring Olivia and Sunny.

And me, drank prosecco with the lovely ladies.
Olivia warming up Sunny.

There are also so many new people that we are thankful for, having in our lives. Her riding teachers in dressage and jumping and new friends.

Olivia did good in jumping, I think she scored 6,5p. Olivia was a little surprised and shocked after the jumping, since Sunny really got his speed up. But, I am proud over how far she has come in this short period of time. And we are forever thankful for Sunny Boy, what a fantastic horse!

That's Amore!

My Brave Girl

A little more than a year ago she fell off a big horse and broke her femur. Hospital and wheelchair and loosing a lot in school made her very sad.

She didn't want to start going back to the Ridingschool again because of memories 

We found together a new rising school and we couldn't be more happier than to find the best perfect horse for Olivia to win back her confidence 

Also big credit to her riding teacher Frau Hitsch.

Olivia is Back on Horse Back

This weekend we went to the riding school were Olivia is taking lessons. This time Olivia watched  the jumping competition. She was amazed and thrilled! Now she wants to start jumping again.

Olivia started a couple of weeks ago at Nordstetten taking lesson from Frau Hirsch

Olivias first riding out in the woods. Twice a week is she taking care of a handsome horse named Sunshine. In the picture is Maria who also takes care of Sunshine. She is very kind to Olivia helping her when feeling insecure.

Here they ride out and Olivia was HAPPY!

Olivia and the horse she takes care of "Sunshine" Olivia wants of course her own horse, but I think she is to young, we don't live on a farm however, this is a great way of getting experience.

Thats Amore!

Working Weekend up in Luhmuhlen


Me and my children went with me on a working trip up to the wonderful horse place in Salzhausen. There are thousands of horses and the nature is so beautiful. We had the weather on our side, sunny and warm. I could even sit in a pasture working with horses.


We stayed at good friends and their horses were so curios on my children, and they on them. Max and Olivia were sitting in the window several times a day. The sun was gazing warm and relaxing.
This is how it can look like when I work. It is such a wonderful job and I feel so blessed to meet so many horses with wonderful charisma's and knowledge.
Max visited his favorit horse at the riding arena. we don't know his name but Max and him got a very strong connection.
Working with clever minds. We first met when he was 9 years old, now he is over twenty years old!
Kids were grateful for Rolf that brought them with him to the riding arena when he was going to ride. They love him so much!
When Max came back home his friends asked him where he had been? 'With my mom at her work. She is reading animals minds!'

He is so handsome my son!
Animals and children read each other in a couple of seconds. No hidden agendas there!

I am grateful to met so many fabulous animals and their owners. Thank you all for an amazing time.

See you again!
