August. The month of horse shows and weddings. And ice bucket challenges, lol! I didn\’t even have time to blink in the last 31 days. Our weekends ran nine-O. The first weekend was a horse show, followed by a wedding. Then a horse show, a wedding and finally, another horse show. However, it was a …
If you caught My Stable Life\’s post last week – Schleich Giveaway – you\’ll know I have been remiss in announcing the winner of a Schleich Quarter Horse and western tack accessory outfit. I\’m also a few days late posting my last month in photos – so I thought I\’d do both with today\’s post! …
There is a place in Okotoks, Alberta, that we absolutely cannot drive by without visiting. If I do, my kids will surely voice their disapproval. However, truth be known, I\’m just as big a fan of Monkey Mountain Toys & Games as my kids are. I wish the store had been around when I was …

June went by in a blur. Maybe it has something to do with the beautiful weather we\’re (finally) starting to experience, or the numerous appointments on our June calendar but whatever it was, I can\’t believe we were celebrating Canada Day yesterday! At the very beginning of June, we found ourselves leaving on a jet …
Whether you\’re celebrating a long weekend or just a summer weekend, I hope it was a great one! The last couple of days seemed to bustle with activity. From all the graduations, to the road trips embarked upon, to new babies being born… y\’all have a lot going on! Our barn hit up a horse …
As a mother and a trainer\’s wife with limited \”me\” time, products in my makeup kit need to be long-lasting and color true to hold up against the hours of errands, meetings, horse shows and travel my life course often sees.
