Heart of a Cowgirl


Since my post yesterday of Susan Boyle's haunting rendition of The Rolling Stones "Wild Horses", (which by the way I can not stop listening too), I am continuing with this horse theme.


I want to share with you this wonderful blog called "Heart of a Cowgirl". Every time I read Bridget's blog it brings a smile to my face...she has the best pictures and cute stories. She is a jewelry designer and a supporter of Equine Voices Rescue and Sanctuary as well as Heartland Rabitt rescue. Besides having horses she has lots of bunnies...just wait until you see those pictures! She lives a true cowgirl life. What is a cowgirl?...well I think Dale Evans put it best-

"Cowgirl is an attitude, really. A pioneer spirit, a special American brand of courage. The cowgirl faces life head on, lives by her own lights, and makes no excuses. Cowgirls take stands. They speak up. They defend the things they hold dear. A cowgirl might be a rancher, or a barrel racer, or a bull rider, or an actress. But she's just as likely to be a checker at the local Winn Dixie, a full-time mother, a banker, an attorney, or an astronaut." - Dale Evans Rogers, Los Angeles, 1992


Also in Bridget's spare time she helps her good friend Marjorie embellish cowgirl aprons and purses, they are just awesome and you can check them out on Etsy at Cowgirl Goods.... So hop on over (no pun intended) to check out "The Heart of a Cowgirl", you will be so glad you did.

  3. Although I have a couple of saddles with horns, I'm no cowgirl! Except when I read Dale Evans description. I am a cowgirl! I will check out the blog.

  4. I love her blog too!
    I didn't hear Susan Boyle's version of one of my fave songs. Guess I should go try to find it.

  5. Ok, I'm now a follower of her blog. The bunnies won me over. And her jewelry rocks! Those amazing cuff bracelets are only like $30 and they are so stylish. Love it!
