We had such an amazing Easter Egg-Stravaganza (Egg Hunt + Lunch)!

Volunteers brought in over 8,000 eggs and served a delicious lunch. We shuttled guests from the parking area to the egg hunt (thanks to all of our van drivers). Our bunny was the most adorable bunny, too, if you ask us. ๐Ÿ˜‰

If you're looking for a church, we'd love to have you at House of Grace on Greenup Avenue in Ashland. โœ๏ธ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿฐ

When I was ginormous and pregnant with my second child, I watched as a beautiful girl rode a beautiful horse down the streets of Ashland during the Christmas parade. As frumpy as I sat there, I made it my hefty goal to ride a horse the next year in the parade. My search for the perfect horse began and I found him.

Enter: Captain ๐Ÿด

If you have followed our farm, had us bring animals to your event or if you have visited us; you have met our beloved Captain. I always thought Captain looked like the coolest surfer dude and acted like a rockstar. ๐ŸคŸ๐Ÿผ
Since opening up our farm in 2015, I have figured up that he has been a first time horse ride for MORE THAN 3,200 people (mostly children) in our community. He has cared for and safely packed hundreds of children for lessons and has served as the face of our farm during countless events that we do to bring farm life to city life people who are interested and curious.

Captain has been in most of y'alls wedding photos if you've been married here at my place. He's the only "big horse" that my kids would ride or really fool with. He could do tricks too. He was the smartest horse and had a heart to please his riders. Ask him if he wants a treat and he will shake his head YAAAAAS! Ask him to do his "Captain Morgan pose" and he will lift his leg up like the pirate on the rum bottle (I didn't teach him any of that; all credit goes to Ms. Tammy Gill). Anytime we needed a star, we brought Cap.

This morning was a terrible day for us and a big dose of heavy farm life facts where animals become family and eventually have to go on. The quiet comfort of knowing ol' Captain isn't here is absolutely numbing for all of us, but as Pooh Bear says:

๐™ƒ๐’๐™ฌ ๐™ก๐’–๐™˜๐’Œ๐™ฎ (๐’ƒ๐™ก๐’†๐™จ๐’”๐™š๐’…) ๐™–๐’“๐™š ๐™ฌ๐’† ๐’•๐™ค ๐™๐’‚๐™ซ๐’† ๐’”๐™ค๐’Ž๐™š๐’•๐™๐’Š๐™ฃ๐’ˆ ๐’•๐™๐’‚๐™ฉ ๐™ข๐’‚๐™ ๐’†๐™จ ๐™จ๐’‚๐™ฎ๐’Š๐™ฃ๐’ˆ ๐’ˆ๐™ค๐’๐™™๐’ƒ๐™ฎ๐’† ๐’”๐™ค ๐™๐’‚๐™ง๐’….

Aye, aye Captain. ๐Ÿซก We loved you.

Our Farm and Our Family

We purchased our 40 acres of land in September 2013 and moved in during the middle of May 2015. The farm layout and buildings were designed and constructed by my most talented husband, contractor, master electrician (and smartest guy I know), Chris, with help from his work crew.

I thought about what to name the property. I wanted something meaningful. We owned Tennessee Walking horses (mostly black in color), so I thought about The Black Horse Farm, then, to make it a bit more unique, The BlackHorse Farm. #soextrahaha

While researching the ancestry and records for our property, we found a very interesting court case that shows a lengthy and public dispute between the landowner of our farm and other Rush residents dating back to the Civil War era. The published legal quarrel over a black mare that grazed the fields of our property long ago inspired us to move forward with the name, โ€œThe BlackHorse Farm.โ€ How ironic (divine, we think) that the land has โ€œblack horseโ€ history and we didnโ€™t even know it.

If you look closely at our custom logo, we created a silhouette of a Tennessee Walking horse with a shield background, a Christian cross on the horse's hind leg area and a dachshund silhouette in the outline of the horse's neck (I've had a miniature dachshund for over 16 years now).
