All tucked in for the winter storm that’s coming.

The herd is settling in beautifully and we’ve been invited to do some really cool stuff.

Big things are in store and I’m beyond excited🥰

Such a beautiful snowy day for riding. Thankful for Broken Bit Arena & Event Center for such a lovely covered facility to work the horses in. Huge thank you to Excel Supplements for keeping my herd looking and feeling great. 🥰

Hello friends and family. I wanted to thank you all for your constant patience, understanding, and honoring our need for space to handle personal affairs.

Im sure most of you could say this past year was a whirlwind of emotions, experiences, lessons, learning how to navigate this new world we live in. Most of us dealt with hard losses. Others are crushing goals. Some of us are just trying to make it to tomorrow. Whichever category you happen to fall in, I see you. I’m cheering for you. You got this. Keep going.

The herd is finally settled in after having a couple serious scares that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. I’m glad now that things are settling down, I’m able to announce I’m opening the doors again. Here’s to 2022 and all the chapters that closed in 2021. This one is going to be pretty awesome.

From Numbers to Names is making a come back. Ready or not here we come!

Dill Pickle is happy to have his new blanket and is feeling so much better now that he’s gaining his weight back. Can you tell? 🥰

I can’t thank y’all enough for your the support and assistance in rehabilitating him. He’s still got a ways to go but the future is bright for this long earred boy.

Dear Cowgirl,

I hope you heal from the things you don’t speak about.

I hope the wild dreams you indulge in before falling asleep actually happen.

I hope you tell that guy or gal you love them, like them, or just want to be around them without the fear of rejection.

I hope you look in the mirror and adore what you see.

I hope you let animals, wide open spaces, and conversations with your grandparents slow you down and remind you of what is important in life.

I hope you remember we are not here for long. I miss many souls whom I knew for three, thirteen, and twenty-three years...only to have them taken away in the blink of an eye.

Please don’t live halfway.

Tell people you love them, jump in the truck, and take the trip you’ve always wanted or embark on a new career.

Stop self sabotaging and start believing in the power you already have.

Nurture it.
Grow it.
Feed it.
Own it.

Stop living halfway.
I promise it’s worth it. 💕 ©Adrian Brannan

Such a beautiful weekend to scout for elk. You can hear them through the Greater Yellowstone forest 4 weeks out of the year.

It’s moments like this that make me pause, take in that deep breath of clean crisp air close my eyes then breathe out.

We’ve finally found a place to call home. One that I’ve dreamed about. I am so thankful.

7 Horse Ranch - thank you so much for having us tag along! This was an experience I’ll never forget.

Sometimes the horse world can be so cruel and I’ll never truly understand why…

Why people turn against one another…
Why are some so quick to judge and point fingers without getting (or reading) the full story…
Why do some help others out then hold it over another’s head…
Why are some so hostile for ambiguous reasons…

It happens with any sport and I get that, however, I have not seen so much hatred spewing out of mouths & keyboard warriors lately.

I feel like we need to be supportive of each other.
I feel like we can be honest without being cruel.
I feel like even the most seasoned should be teachable.
I feel like instead of lashing out, we should maybe take a step back, reevaluate the situation, talk like mature adults and go from there to figure out a solution.
I feel like everyone has something to learn from one another.
We shouldn’t be calling each other names, bashing one another, calling new owners dumb or making statements that they can’t do it.

That’s not right and that is not the example we should be setting.

We were all new at horses at one point.
We were all taught hard lessons and are still learning.
We all have made mistakes.
We’ve all cried ourselves to sleep from having a hard day with our horses.
We’ve all experienced traumatic losses when our fur babies cross over.
We do our best with what we are taught either by examples from another trainer, videos or books.

Where is the love? This world is hard enough already…maybe if we practiced some grace with one another we can make a difference together.

This isn’t a war…I want you to win too. We should all want that for one another. At least that’s my perspective.

We did our first western dressage clinic today! Harley Quinn was the only Mustang there and to everyone’s surprise, the Mustang did fantastic and was the star student! I was even offered a job working the facilities horses and start to help in clinics! Harley also taught a beginner rider the fundamentals of riding. The rider was so grateful! So thankful and in love with my girl. Harley hadn’t been ridden in a clinic or a show for close to 2 years now…to say I’m proud of her is an understatement 🥰 Excel Supplements Farnam Horse Circle Y Saddles Mustang Heritage Foundation East Idaho News Statelinetack.com NRS C-A-L Ranch Stores WonPad Professional's Choice Weaver Leather

So the secrets out…

Meet the newest member of the herd!!

Nikko aka Dill Pickle. 🥰 DP is a mule that was abandoned at a boarding facility in Oregon. He is in great hands now and will need to gain back the weight back that he had lost, along with complete veterinary care, before making the trip to Idaho.

He is so happy to be getting the love he deserves now. ❤️

Huge thank you to those who are helping look after him. It means more than you know 🥺❤️

Happy Labor Day! Hope y’all had a great 3 day weekend. 😊

Dear Cowgirl,

Let’s chase dreams, Jesus and always the thrill of “more.”

Let’s not buy the newest “it” thing, let’s buy more cows.

Let’s forget the meaning of time and enjoy the sunshine, newborn calves, and baking something warm for the neighbors or a loved one.

Let’s read better books, listen to better music and support small businesses.

Let’s take the long way home, leave our phones behind and have more picnics just because.

Let’s take the time to slow down and be thankful for our blessings, work at healing old hurts and recognize that there was a point in time where we wished for the gifts we have now.

Let’s not take one single moment of this precious gift called life for granted. 💕©Adrianbbrannan

Most of you know my Mom had metastatic breast cancer. Here she is visiting with some of her grand babies! Cancer treatments have been working great so far but the stroke took a bit out of her. She’s rebuilding the strength to get on and ride but I did tell her I’d get her on a horse 🥰 I can’t wait to update y’all more with her progress! I love you Mom ❤️

It’s incredible how much a change in environment does to your horses! Don’t get me wrong, we’ve been working and finessing our ground work but if you would have told me my wild boy would end up being this calm, I don’t think I would have believed you 😅. Here’s to many adventures with my wild son! 🏔

I never liked the rain until I walked through it with you
Every thunder cloud that came was one more I might not get through
On the darkest day there's always light and now I see it too
But I never liked the rain until I walked through it with you ❤️
