I would like to give a special thanks to all the people who provided the hard work, dedication and support that has made Equestrian Enterprize transform from dream to reality for me ! Without your help I never would have grown as steadily and quickly as I have in the last 2 years. Its' been and long, bumpy road and we've met some restistance and characters along the way .... LOL ... Who would have thought the horses would have been the easiest part of this? <wink>
After my auto accident I saw life thru different eyes. Many of us wander thru life thinking we are immortal, and have a tendency to put our dreams on hold and wait for tomorrow. Things can change in the blink of an eye. This realization was my inspiration to follow my passion and start Equestrian Enterprize. "Live your dream" is now a reality in my life and motto of my barn. I thank all of you for allowing me to experince something that very few do, you will always be held in a special place in my heart for what you have enabled me to do and become ..... again, FOR THIS I THANK YOU !
