Bandit at the Devon Horse Show

I’ve been a regular at the Devon Horse Show, one of the oldest and largest outdoor multi-breed competitions in the United States, since I was just a wee thing. This year was no exception as I couldn’t pass up attending the most exciting night at Devon – the Grand Prix, where horses jump fences over 5 ...

Popovich Comedy Pet Theater

Over the weekend my mom and dad went to a very special event (which I was not invited to – the nerve) called the Popovich Comedy Pet Theater. It sounded like so much fun that I thought I would share their adventure with everyone, even if I didn’t get to see it with my own ...

Mounted Games and Versatility with the Ponies

On Sunday we held another competition at the farm. When we hold competitions, they typically aren’t what you think of when you hear “horse show”.

Quiet Days on the Farm

Life on my family horse farm can be quite peaceful. I enjoy spending a lot of my time around the ponies – just quietly soaking in all the sounds and smells of the farm. Yes – it CAN BE quite peaceful. But other days, there are groundhogs to hunt! On these days, peaceful and quiet ...

The Inspector

My pony friends recently got in a shipment of new equipment to use during their mounted games competitions on the farm! These brand-new items for the Windsor Castle Race looked pretty spiffy to me, but there is really no way to tell until Inspector Ammo makes his rounds. The traffic cones looked alright I guess, ...

Hurricane Irene

On Saturday evening Hurricane Irene made it’s way towards my home in Pennsylvania. I’ve never been in a hurricane before (after all I’m only 2!), so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I knew enough to be a little scared, especially since mom and dad brought in all of our outdoor patio stuff, and ...

Napping at Work

Luckily for me my boss allows me to take naps while on the job. One of the many perks. (I also get belly rubs and snacks for free- it’s in my contract). However, napping on the job can sometimes be an art. Sometimes getting comfy requires a little creativity. So today I’m going to share ...

Cider Doughnuts & Bubble Baths

I live in farm country. Right out my back door is rolling farmland, cows, horses, and the sweet smell of manure. It’s a dog’s dream really. Chester County, PA is a hot spot for farmers – and the neighboring Amish in Lancaster County too. Taking a drive in farm country is one of my favorite ...
