All horses deserve, at least once in their lives, to be loved by a little girl.

Me! my heart melted when I saw these pictures. I have been horse lover since I was born, my mom told me that even when I was toddler, I was pointing horses all the time that I wanted to go touch them, not other animals. I rode 15 years, until I had my accident with one of my leasing horse. I broke my neck, and still 5 years after, I have problems with my back. I still want someday to have my own horse, to have the same feeling. I love horses too much 🙂

Awwww, I LOVE horses! My Dad bought me a beautiful dapple grey Arabian/Quarter horse gelding when I turned 13! He was amazing, three years old and green broke so it took a lot of work to calm him down a bit, then it turned out he was a one person horse and wouldn't let anyone else ride him without dumping them off…lol, crazy horse! Needless to say my Dad ended up buying a older horse for my siblings:) My baby passed away while I was away at college, miss my baby every day…

sounds just like me!
I used to have a racehorse as well. It used to follow me around like a dog without cord. My friends and I spent our whole life in the barn. Sometimes I wonder what if my kids are going to love horses the way I did.

Boy do I ever miss my horses!! I raised and trained them when I was younger. Then I worked on a race track when I got older. I was always too tall and too heavy to be a jockey. I think a 110 lb 5'8 person is just WAY too skinny!! LOL I did exercise a few race horses tho. My fave horse of all time was Copper. He was the love-o-my-life. Big brassy chestnut QH/Appy. If it wasn't for his stripped hooves and molted nose, nobody would have ever known he wasn't a pure QH! *sigh*

You have one here! I got my first horse at 11 and second (her baby) at 12 and had them until I was 28 and the mare was well over 30. After they werent with us anymore we got 2 more AND a mini donkey….my husband put in an 80×100 outdoor arena for me to use….after I have this baby I am back in the saddle! We also have a mini donkey for my 2 year old daughter. That is also one of my favorite quotes!

Oh me, me! I never had a horse, we could never afford one, but mom made sure I got my horseness. She had a childhood friend who has horses, and she purposefully would make friends with horse people. I love horses, unfortunately (you know what I mean (;) it seems so do all three of my children. I would love to get a horse for them (ok, ok for me!)
Love your blog. You are beautiful, and you work hard!
Blessings! -Natalie

I'm a horse lover!!!!
I've only been riding a hand full of times… but it just felt meant to be. I've never felt as great as when I was riding horses.
I really hope to have one… or at least access to one someday.

I got my first horse for my 12th birthday. His registered name was Andrew's Golden Spirit, but we called him Andy too. I now raise kids in the city and only regret for them never having that experience. I love the quote…every horse should be loved by a little girl. How I loved my Andy! Wow, thanks for bringing back great memories today.

Wonderful post! I loved seeing the pics… I am a horse lover too 🙂 My first love was an Appaloosa Thoroghbred mix named Colida High Star. Oh, the adventures we had together. Sadly, my girls only love horses, they are not horse crazy — yet!

oh my goodness-what gorgeous photos of the horses & dresses! Another horse lover & owner here. We have 5 horses & a shetland pony. My 15 yr old daughter shows & barrel races with the quarterhorses. My 6 yr old barrel races with the pony (she started last year when she was 5). We have 3 old horses that needed homes-2 of them are retired harness racing horses-they are amazing trail horses & have even participated in 4H events. We LOVE our horses. Holly

I still have wild fantasies about being independently wealthy so that I can have a whole herd. I rode for a long time and then life got in the way. I'm hoping to pas son my love to my 3 kids. I love your horse dress!

How cool! I've been horseback riding only once in my life. I'd love to again sometime, and I know my girls would too!
