If someone were to describe me, I think they would say that I am, and always have been, HORSE CRAZY!!! I absolutely love horses (Arabians number one, of course). I feel incredibly blessed to share my life with these magnificent creatures.
I love everything about them! Horses have given me so much joy, and they have provided the best memories, along with many incredible lifelong friendships (with equally horse crazy people). I couldn’t imagine my life without these wonderful horses.
One of my show ring quirks has to do with when the announcer calls for the line up–I love to make a last pass before going into the line-up.
