This Barn is dedicated to all the horses past, present, and future that have passed or 

or will pass through our lives.  The horses of our past are the foundation upon which we 

proudly stand.  Our present horses are helping to build the future's champions and for that 

we are grateful.  We thank you all for allowing us to share your Grace, Wisdom, and Peace.

For those that are gone, we truly hope that the pastures are greener, the water is sweeter,

and the skies are bluer.  The ones that are here we hope they are happy and healthy and 

that they will stay a while.  The ones yet to come we'll welcome with open arms and a 

hopeful and humble heart.  Let us remember that your presence is a privilege and not a 

right.  We hope that every person entering this barn will share our passion, joy,

and trust in one of God's greatest Creations.

S. L. Hilderbrand

  • Hi! I got your website on Horsetopia (you responded to my question about freewebs & websites) Your horses are gorgeous - I have a soft spot for the paints I'm glad you stopped by our website. We've got a small soft spot for paints as well.

  • Hi! I saw your website on horsetopia- nice to meet you! Your website is great! I truly can't believe someone actually mean things about your mares!!! Must be jealous I used to breed and raise paints and I think all your horses are beautiful. Your stud, Regal, is stunning! I saw his pic on horsetopia with your name and wow! Good luck with all your babies! --Heather

    Thanks for the compliments on Regal! We think he's pretty cool too.
