Most of you already know what’s been happening, but for those who don’t, I just wanted to take a moment to share that after 6 years, TorBella’s barn doors have officially closed today, and the boys have moved to their new home. They have officially arrived and are doing great. It was an emotional day, but I’m so thankful they are safe, settled, and well cared for.
This barn and family has been such a huge part of my life and has held years of lessons, laughter, challenges, and growth. I’m so grateful for the riders, families, friends and horses who were part of it.
Life doesn’t always unfold the way we plan, and sometimes the chapters we thought were permanent end much sooner than expected. While this transition hasn’t been easy and life has thrown quite a few curveballs my way recently, I truly believe growth often comes from the most unexpected and difficult endings. Even though the future isn’t entirely clear right now, I’m choosing to stay positive and move forward with the same resilience that has carried me through every challenge so far in life.
I want to take a moment to sincerely thank everyone who has a part of and who has supported me and this business from the very beginning 6 years ago. From the first riders and families who trusted me, to those who joined along the way, your support, loyalty, and encouragement have meant more to me than I can put into words. Owning and running this program over the past six years has not been without its struggles, but I have always persevered and made it my mission to keep it going no matter what—and that is something I am incredibly proud of.
While this chapter is closing, I will be keeping this page active and sharing updates here and there as Bob and Atlas settle into their new home. They will be leased by a wonderful rider named Faith, who will be riding them and showing them over the summer and for the foreseeable future, and I’m excited to watch them continue their journey and see all that they accomplish together!
My goal is to reopen this program again one day in the future—hopefully one day at a farm of my own. This isn’t the end of the dream, just a pause while I work toward the next step.
For now, my focus is on the horses and making sure they are comfortable and cared for during this transition. Thank you again to everyone who has supported me and the program over the years. I’m looking forward to seeing what the next chapter brings.
