Often times the phrase “Born in a Barn” is seen negatively, but not at our house. Luckily, we were not legitimately born in a barn, although some days it seems like we live there.
The barn is where you go to work, to escape the rest of the world, and to prepare for an upcoming event. It is where arguments take place, as well as many laughs. Tears are sometimes shed as plans don’t happened as planned. It’s where you learn how to work hard, accomplish the impossible, never give up, and always look towards the future. Most importantly, it’s where a family bonds.
The barn is where the work is put into before traveling to a show. Nothing means family bonding like six people packed into a six passenger truck traveling to a destination hours away. The goal remains the same, winning. The animals change with each show, and not matter what, new memories are always made.
My favorite days are when my family meets in the barn. The animals are taken care of everyday, but the animals are the reasons my family comes together and works to accomplish the same goal. Dirty clothes, shower caps protecting our hair, radio blasting, the people I love surrounding me; that’s what my barn means to me.
