Off To Scottsdale!

Preston and Nathan just left for Scottsdale! They are hauling two rigs full of horses. We are very excited for Scottsdale this year. Hopefully everything runs smoothly. Preston will be showing for the first time on Friday this week. He will show Karlotta on Friday and Sunday. Next week he will be showing Breezy, Iceman, and CD. I'll try to let you know about what time he will be showing so you can watch the live stream online.

These are the hats we made for Iceman.

We also embroidered a blanket for one of our client's horse

And Preston and I got our jackets embroidered with his logo on the back, they turned out really great! We also printed our logo onto 4 banners that we will put on our stalls.

This is Karlotta, she is going to Scottsdale. She is also for sale so we took this picture of her the other day.

This is Norm, he's not going to Scottsdale but he is for sale too.

You're all looking very sharp! Go Preston! Lisa, you've got to get someone to take a picture of your jacket--you looked so cute in it when we went out to lunch! Also, how did your hair turn out?

Quotes that Inspire

“If you work hard you will be happy, if you don’t, you’ll go to hell.” -- Brigham Young.

"The greatest joy we can have in this life is bringing the best out of others." --Anonymous

“Freedom is not defined by safety. Freedom is defined by the ability of citizens to live without government interference. Government cannot create a world without risks, nor would we really wish to live in such a fictional place. Only a totalitarian society would even claim absolute safety as a worthy ideal, because it would require total state control over its citizens’ lives...” -- Ron Paul

"Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people." --Admiral Hyman G. Rickover

"I wish people who have trouble communicating would just shut up." --Tom Lehrer

"A resistance to anything that limits one’s conduct has almost taken over society. Our whole social order could self-destruct over the obsession with freedom disconnected from responsibility, where choice is imagined to be somehow independent of consequences." -- Boyd K Packer

"There will be occasions in each of our lives when we will be called upon to explain or to defend our beliefs. When the time for performance arrives, the time for preparation is past." --Thomas S. Monson

"Why do we assume that simple is good? Because with physical products, we have to feel we can dominate them. As you bring order to complexity, you find a way to make the product defer to you. Simplicity isn't just a visual style. It's not just minimalism or the absence of clutter. It involves digging through the depth of the complexity. To be truly simple, you have to go really deep. For example, to have no screws on something, you can end up having a product that is so convoluted and so complex. The better way is to go deeper with the simplicity, to understand everything about it and how it's manufactured. You have to deeply understand the essence of a product in order to be able to get rid of the parts that are not essential." -- Jonathan Ive, from the book, Steve Jobs, by Walter Isaacson

"I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult." --E. B. White

"Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves." --Albert Einstein

“The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.” --Vince Lombardi

"Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured." --Gordon B. Hinckley

"Attitudes are contagious. Is yours worth catching?"
--Anonymous

"The nearer man approaches perfection, the clearer are his views, and the greater his enjoyments, till he has overcome the evils of his life and lost every desire for sin; and like the ancients, arrives at that point of faith where he is wrapped in the power and glory of his Maker and is caught up to dwell with Him. But we consider that this is a station to which no man ever arrived in a moment.” --Joseph Smith

"Broaden your vision; Lengthen your stride." --Spencer W. Kimball

"It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself." --Ralph Waldo Emerson

"If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven played music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well." --Martin Luther King Jr.

“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” --Confucious

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." --Mark Twain

"There's a simple rule for becoming a writer, or an artist, or a photographer: do it. If you want to become a photographer, take pictures. If you want to become a writer, write. If you want to become and artist, draw. There is no substitute. There is no royal road offered by taking courses or reading how-to books. Unless you sit down and do it, such things are utterly useless.

Now, becoming a better writer, artist, dancer or what-not will perhaps benefit from instruction, but instruction is not a substitute for action. Taking a course in writing is a bit like buying a diet book and not doing anything else. The diet book will not magically make you slender and desirable. You've got to eat less and exercise more, and the book is not going to do it for you.

I think of such things as the "illusion of action." You think you're doing something when you're watching the TV news. You think something has happened because you bought a diet book. You think you've done something because you took a course in writing, but unless you have brought something to it, nothing at all has happened." --David Lance Goines

"I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him." --Booker T Washington

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.” --Les Brown

"...So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought." --Gandalf from“Lord of the Rings”
