Steve and I got married in Aug 2003 and had Cody in 2005.
I (Michelle) am basically the horse and animal lover (freak as some would say) and Steve is more on the "normal" side... he loves them, but patiently puts up with the two dogs and cat sleeping in our bed and my wanting to take in every lost puppy or kitten.
One of the strong beliefs we both share is that each one of us has been put on this planet to live out and share our God-given gifts and passions with the world around us... starting with our own home and reaching out to those who cross our paths each day... after taking in Zoe, our first rescue horse in Sept 2007 and seeing the vacancy in her eyes slowly, day by day, fill up with life we became even more impassioned and determined to do more.
We know it is impossible to save every horse in need, but we can make our best effort in making the world a better place for these abused and sometimes forgotten horses by reaching out to you... and inspiring and educating those in our backyard (and maybe a little beyond) about compassion, integrity, leadership, and the beauty, strength, and vulnerability found only in a horse.
