About Me

Hi everyone!! I guess that I should introduce myself, right?

Well, I’m a Christ-loving teenager who also loves dirt, cows and strawberry roan horses. I live on a small hobby farm run by my Grandpa and have a huge dream of one day working full-time on a big cattle ranch out in Montana, Kansas, or frankly, anywhere!

My favorite chapter is Isaiah 43 in which God is telling Israel how much he loves them and what he will do to save them. I would highly suggest reading it! (For a sneak peak, here’s Isaiah 43:4, “Because you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you. I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life.”)

I live in a family with three other sisters (who I love like crazy) and my parents who have been married for 16 years. I can always remember that because they were married one year before I was born!

Right now, I don’t have any strawberry roan horses. *sigh* I will someday though. Maybe God has strawberry roans in Heaven… =)

Right now, however, I do ride a black Quarter Horse/Haflinger cross named Smoky Joe. (Everyone just calls him Smoky though) I’ve taken him to three brandings, and about ten roundups. Unless you count when we work our family’s cows. Then the number skyrockets. I have ridden in a show and Smoky loved the contesting, (we did Pole Bending) but he wasn’t so thrilled with the Pleasure and Horsemanship classes.

My favorite quote, ok, one of my favorite quotes is:

Aren’t they cute?

I am homeschooled, and I love being homeschooled!! I get some looks sometimes (‘your kids need to learn to get along with society!’ people tell my mom), but it’s great to have school done by lunch time and chores done by one o’clock and be outside riding/writing/reading/whatever when all the public schooled kids get home and have to do homework!

I’m learning the guitar (my fingers are starting to get proof!) from my grandpa who is an awesome guitar player. I’m almost to chords and I know a lot of the notes. Right now, I’m just working on getting my fingers where they’re suppose to go!

Hang around and have fun!!

  1. Wow! I am so impressed by your blog! In fact, I had no idea you were a teen by your excellent writing.

    I homeschool my children too … four teens (ages 16, 14, 13 and 13 … and no they are not twins as we are a blended family), and one tween (age 11). We also have two foster babies (ages 2 and 1). Those two prefer to do anything they can to prevent us from accomplishing much school, but we love ’em anyway! LOL And I’d be willing to bet that you are far more socialized than most teens your age. 😉

    Blessings for 2015!

      Full house there!! I guess you have excitement 24-7, huh?? Gotta love big families…and yes, my five year old sister loves to ask an enormous amount of questions as soon as we start school. Always fun. 🙂

      Have a very blessed 2015. (Almost wrote 2014 for a moment!!) 😉
