So many wonderful things have
happened, Let's try to get current.......
Jessica is
now married, yes, that's right, she found a
wonderful man and was somehow able to rope him into making an honest
woman out of her!! On December 9th, 2009,
Adam Weger made Jessica the happiest woman in the world when they
were wed in Clayton, MO. They now reside in Woodson Terrace
with their three children and dog Miles, everyone has settled
in nicely.
Many
congratulations are in order to Miss Claudia Rutherford on her
purchase of CR Impressive Lites, known to many as Sparkle!
Sparkle is a very special mare with endless possibilities and a
passion for Reining. The two have already made an impressive
start to their show career having already earned numerous
ribbons(including the 1st blue), weekend high-point awards, and even
placed in their first NRHA show! CRR could not be more proud
of these two and are appreciative to be able to be part of Claudia
living out her childhood dream. Dreams really do come true!
Keep watching for these two at upcoming ARHA, NRHA, ApHC, and MRSC
shows. You aren't very likely to see anyone having more fun.
Hailey
has again lucked out thanks to Paul and Jane Mareschal of P&J
Performance Horses. Freckles Mini Jag is a 5 yr old AQHA mare
out of Paul's mare Freckles that they were so kind as to sell to CRR
for Hailey. The pair are bonding quickly, most likely
because Hailey never leaves poor Mini alone, and have already
participated in many local shows. Mini handles it like she is
a well oiled machine whether Hailey rides her forward, backward,
standing, sitting, etc., and receives much praise from
Hailey's Mother for putting up with such antics.
Alex has expressed interest in moving up to the mare as soon as he
outgrows Bob Marley, so yes, within the next year or so we
will be searching for Bob's new child.
CR Scenic Angel Stood 3rd at the ARHA World Show while Mary and
Chris Stassi's yearling gelding showed us all up and stood World
Champion Yearling In-Hand Trail. Way to go Mary and we
are proud of you for being spontaneous, I know it wasn't easy!
Mary also participated in her first NRHA show and placed with her
gelding "This One For Trade". Trader is a multi-talented guy
that has exceeded everyone's expectations earning much respect in
many circles. He is offered for sale, more info can be found
on the 12 Oaks Farm website. Stassi's welcomed a baby boy into
their barn this year as well, he is adorable, stop by the farm
website and see the pictures! Keep an eye out for Chris
and Ricco at local shows. Mary is threatening to bring Phantom
to some shows this year, meaning that all of us others with pleasure
horses are going to have to really step up our game, that
horse is incredible. They do have him offered for sale
but I do not believe have advertised him heavily. They have a
yearling longe-line gelding for sale as well, very reasonably
priced if you ask me.
Many exciting things are going on for our friends Paul and Jane
Mareschal, Paul is getting stronger by the day, we
should see him back to showing and training in no time! Jane
has had some successful shows already this year with her gelding
"TEE". It's going to be like the good ole days again!!
They are also now the sole owners of Supreme Heir, and have
many of his babies at the barn in Foristell, you should stop by and
see them, it's hard not to go home with one. We are expecting
a foal by Supreme Heir out of a Noahs Arch Angel/Huslers Ole Man
mare here at the barn for next year and are very excited!
Jessica would like to
extend a very special thank you to Mary and Gary Haas, of Haas
Horse Farm in Dixon MO for the use of their mare Shiney San Freckles
earlier this year. Shiney is by their stallion Dry and Shiney
and out of one of their carefully selected mares. They have
really nice stock at all times and we encourage anyone to call when
in search of a well-bred horse.
CRR just
finished up our Summer Horse Camp Session and would like to say
"well done" to all that participated. Many activities were
covered and fun was had by all but most importantly, everyone
stayed safe!!!
This
upcoming week is St. Charles County Fair week, hope to see you
there.
This is just a start to bringing everyone current,
please check back often for updates, we will attempt to be
more diligent about updating this portion of the website now that
Jessica's wonderful husband Adam has put an easy button on her
computer!
Happy horsing around,
good luck to you all, and be safe!
