I gave Paisley a buckle I won on “the horse” that I loved with my whole heart and still miss to this day. He changed my life and I’ll never have another like Pete. We were born 10 days apart and I lost him when I was 16. If anyone is into horse genealogy/pedigrees, he […]

First Belts + Passing Down Heirlooms

Probably one of the easiest meals I make for the guys that always turns out great, is quick, and I am not spending a ton on ingredients. My meat and cheese sliders are scrumptious and what I love most is you can choose whatever meat and cheese you prefer! I usually make them different each […]

Meat + Cheese Sliders

Summer is for hay. When Dad is out in the field, we try to have some fun when we visit and take a meal. I love that the girls get to experience this life and see that every part of farming and ranching is important. On this particular day, he just finished up with a […]

Haykid Summer

I’ve loved listening to her show for years and it was an honor to share my […]

Rural Revival

This has been one of my most requested recipes from Instagram. I’ve shared myself making these several times and have perfected this recipe, using and tweaking it for the last two years. Silly as it sounds, one of my bucket list life goals has been to master the chocolate chip cookie the way I prefer […]

Lou’s Chocolate Chip Cookies

Mulberry……as you know, I love my Longhorns. It’s not my family’s first choice of cattle or what the Rafter PS Ranch has the majority of. My herd is small, but growing. I hope one day to have several and need another piece of land to raise them all. I love what they embody, their hardiness, and let’s […]

Texas Longhorn Education | Part 1

Today was a hard one mentally. Pushing through things I don’t want to. Fighting through things that hurt. I struggle sometimes and this mental toughness project I’m doing makes you face things you push down. I have a highlight saved on my instagram with a little more in depth of what I’m talking about. But […]
