Hey everyone. Sorry so long since the last post. We have had trouble with our wireless internet and we've been very busy getting ready for the Midwest Horse Fair and the Hollywood Charity Horse Show. We head to Madison, WI at the Alliant Energy Center on Thursday for a 3 day show and then head off to the LA Equestrian Center for a one day extravaganza and perform for a lot of celebs and folks to raise money for a great charity. William Shatner spends the entire weekend riding and raising money. He is quite the inspiration. Tommie and I will be performing in the show. In Madison, Tommie and I will be doing demos during the day and then performing at night. If you are in the area come on out and see us. Stop by our booth and say hi. We'll be happy to talk with you. We've had quite a few shows here at the Wahl Equestrian Center. We've had the Illinois Cutting Horse Assoc, the Illinois Quarter Horse Assoc, Barrel racing, and Rockin' H Team Roping. It has been non-stop. Tommie and I did a public rehearsal to get ready for the shows and then had an Easter Egg hunt for the kids. We were blown away with the amount of people who came out. Thanks for the support. We're already planning a BIG Easter weekend next year with lots of eggs and prizes. PLUS, we'll put on a show instead of a rehearsal. My husbands mom and dad came in for two weeks to help get things together. They were a lot of help. Thanks Rol-Ann! They helped watch the zebra and kangaroo too. Our facility manager took two weeks off to go to Australia for a much needed vacation. She's back now and our intern program is back in full swing. We are truly international! We have an intern from Montreal (Jen), one from Europe (Ludivine), one from the US, and 2 more coming soon. It will be a fun summer with lots of fun. We'll trail ride, trick ride, drive, roman ride, and even do vaulting. Sugar is ready! I just need to build a ring curb and she'll be ready to run. Sugar is our American Cream Draft Horse. She is quite the sight.
Lots to do. I'll try to add some photos tomorrow. See you soon!
Ride Fast... Take Chances! karen

We love Tommie, he is awesome! We seen him last year at the Midwest Horse Fair and I think possibly the year before too, and also this year. The comedy act with Poker Joe is awesome as always, we could watch it a gazillion times, but the demonstration with Ace in the Nutrena Arena was inspiring as well. We have foundation quarter horses and I have a new yearling, so I'm hoping being how young she is we can build that awesome trust relationship.
So lastly... all of us ladies want to know, is Tommie single?? Had to ask! ;)

Thank you for the comments regarding Tommie and his horses. We are happy you enjoy what Tommie does and hope he inspires people to do more and enjoy their horses more. We hope to be back at Midwest next year, so please let them know you want to see Tommie again. As for your question, Tommie is married to his horses and his dogs, and is single. Ride Fast... Take Chances! karen
No dogs here with me... but you could say I'm married to my horses and my cats! We will be sure to take a look at midwesthorsefair.com and see if there's a place for recommending which clinicians attend.
Thanks for the reply!
