Wow, I can't believe how long it has been since I have updated Jax's blog! But, Here goes!! Jax ended 2009 as the Reserve High Point 2 Year Old Stallion for the Utah Paint Horse Club. But, for the most important thing..Jax is now a proud papa! His first baby was born on January 28th, 2009. He sired a big Sorrel Stud Colt! He has a big blaze face and three white socks. Owner is unsure if there is a belly spot at this point in time. Here are some pictures at a few hours old: 


And here are some at Three Days Old:

Pinto World!!
Every year since 2007 we have made the 1400 mile drive to Tulsa, Ok to compete at Pinto World Championships. In 2007 we took Mister Bruce Almighty, he was 9th in Amateur & 6th in Open. It was a great experience for me since it was my first time ever showing! In 2008 I took Mr Almighty Scribbles, a son of bruce's. He placed 10th under one judge in amateur but did nothing in the open. This year, we hauled a 3 year old filly, RS Together Forever aka Katie, that I was given to train and my new stallion Cool Skipin Awesome aka Jax! I was so nervous about both these horses because I knew they could be great! On Sunday we showed barrels & poles in the open breeding stock classes.
Here is a video of Katie's Barrel Run! This was her second time ever running and the first time I've ever really pushed her to go. She has a heart of gold. Unfortunately there was a guy sitting about eight feet off the third barrel in a bright green shirt. We're not sure if she thought he was the barrel or if she got scared when she seen him. Either way we got a no time for breaking the pattern but I could not have asked more from her. And on the way home, I am riding with no stirrups! She's the best filly I have had the pleasure to ride.
Here is a video of her Pole Run!This was also her second time ever running poles and we changed the way she runs since the first time she ran. She made me so proud! She ran a 26.277 and we ended up Reserve World Champions!! I absolutely love this filly!!
On Tuesday I got to show Jax. I have never been more nervous in my life! Before we ever got into the class I almost had a mental breakdown. I had a flashback of when I showed Bruce and started crying. My hands and legs shook so bad while I was showing him! I am so proud of him! We received a 2nd, 3rd, & 6th and ended up 3rd overall! Can't wait for next year! He is definitely a dream come true! Here's his video:
This is Jax being shown by Hal Schiffner! He showed so well! I can't explain how proud I am of him! Big Thanks to Hal for Showing him & helping me get him!! Here is the video:
I am so excited for next year with these two horses!! Keep watching for updates on these great young horses!!!

Early Thaw Horse Show
We took Jax to The Early Thaw Horse Show in Hurricane on April 11th, 2007. He was the only stallion at the whole show but it was a great experience for both of us. We showed him in the Amateur and the Open. He was showed without a lip chain and did great! So, this weekend, April 26th we will be taking him to Spanish fork, UT and competing in the Utah Paint Horse Club first show. Stay updated as to how he does!
