I need an interview with your parents lol. I rode for about 12 years until I was 17. Although I had a single Mom I was fortunate enough to eventually buy a $2500 pony and showed locally. I had great trainers who helped and I worked at the barn 5 days a week to help pay for everything. Best years of my life! Needless to say my 12 year old daughter rides now. Its been about 2 years and I know we are approaching the time where she wants to start riding more then once a week, showing, making more of a commitment etc. Her barn unfortunately is much bigger then mine was so her working cost off probably isn't much of an option. I just want to know what your parents do so I can make a career change to afford it all! Lol. My kids dad makes decent money but he isnt much of a horse person. He always jokes that he will buy the horse if I feed it. Obviously we all know buying the horse is the LEAST expensive part. I think I might need two more jobs to make that happen. In all seriousness I enjoy your vlogs. We actually live in Southern Maryland and I grew up showing my pony at PGEC. Its fun to watch you riding in those same rings. Of course the facility is decked out a bit nicer then it was for our local and C shows. Still a nice stroll down memory lane. My daughter will be going to watch WIHS this week (still cant believe its not in DC anymore). Love your horse and congrats on getting to keep him in your family! Know you are blessed but also be blessed and keep making these vlogs to inspire others!
Amazing news although I remember one you first started leasing him you saying that you can’t buy every horse you lease!! Apple or is amazing experienced equitation horse that clearly enjoys his job! Can’t wait to see you do the adult equitation although he has the talent to be successful in whatever you desire! With retiring pickle, this is a great fit he will know he is a willing and talented. I think Apple could be anything you ask him to be. He’s always seem so willing and just wanted to please you and definitely connected to you. I could tell he was always excited to see you when you arrived at the farm. You winning the regional last year in FLORIDA was one of the best equitation rounds I’ve seen in many years. Congratulations again and cheers to the future. This is just the start.
so happy for you!! you and apple are amazing together and i can’t wait to see more of your guys journey!! i look up to you sm and rlly hope to be like you one day 🫶🏻
Congratulations on your new ride added to the family. I’ve watched countless vlogs now with you riding Apple, he is the best boy. Love from California⛰️🌲☀️💙

i’m tryin to figure out what type of helly hanson jacket that is!! i narrowed down results and it’s between a mid layer and a shell in the sailors department. what do you have?
Haha I am so early😂 you posted the vid like 50 sec ago😅 Love you and your channel smm!! I don’t even think you understand how much I look up to you as a rider!! (Sorry not in a creepy way)
