Where to start?

I started with horses because of my Dad a huge horse lover as well. I grew up on a standard-bred farm. I now own two wonderful horses one is a 6 year old gelding in pic and a three year old mare. Both are warmbloods, the gelding is a dressage horse by profession and resident goof ball the rest of the time. My Mare 3 sadly no longer a filly;( is jumper all the way she jumps all on her own. If there is anything remotely jumpable *word*? she will take great measure to go over it. I have had some other wonderful experiences on my THB who has sadly passed on and the young age of 11. Tigger a nice 16hh sorel THB never raced but was trained on the track was a jem. I learned how to fall off first, then he was kind enough to teach me how to stick a buck ;)
Then we had many adventures together. After I lost him I was pretty sad and thinking of selling my saddles. A friend called me about a month or so later and said she just bought as big warmblood 18.1 I thought she was crazy! So she came over and and was telling me all about him.Then she said he had a younger brother. Well I am not sure what it was but I called the breeder right away and asked if I could come and meet this horse.I already had him bought in my head:) My husband seemed to realize this before I left and said don't break the bank. When I got there I just went weak in the knees. This big snorting mane flying,four white sock, blaze, in a 5 year old green broke body....WOW RUN, RUN away. Well like any self respecting horsewoman would do I made an offer. So He was going to be delivered the following week. I was shaking the whole way home. When he came to the barn I had a heart attack almost. He came flying out of the trailer all those pretty white socks flying in different directions.. Snorting and blowing like crazy.. Did I mention he had only been in a trailer twice and off the pasture he was born on once....
A lot of people would call that nuts but horse people understand when you get that feeling it is like you can barely stand and you just know that this is going to be your horse. I am so very glad that I got him. He is now a big dog and makes me laugh every time I go out to the barn.
My Mare /filly I have owned since the day she was born. I was in the stall minutes after she hit the ground. I loved the mare and was the only one she would let in the stall. I went in there everyday and the filly would just lay her head in my lap and snuggle. She is a jumping horse to the extreme. Since she was old enough to run around she would hop over the feed tubs and any little branches on the ground as she got older it became barrels, tree stumps fallen tress, gates etc.. She now finally stays in the pasture she has bonded with an old 1/4 mare who does not move to quick. She is going to go on to the jumper arena.
