Coulee Bend Reverence
(UVM Thomise X Mirabellas Mesmerized)
2012 Bay filly
(Picture/Pedigree)
Reverence: a feeling of deep respect, tinged with awe.
With that definition in mind, it was easy to name this beautiful filly.
She is the last foal sired by our late foundation stallion, UVM Thomise, and we have always been in awe of the amazing foals he sired.
Vera is such a beautiful, sweet, outgoing filly and has the amazing athleticism and grace that we have come to expect from her sire.
Vera is well started under saddle, but she has really blossomed as a driving horse, and 2017 was her debut in Combined Driving Competitions.
We are having so much fun with this amazing young mare and look forward to many years of driving and riding togetherness with her :)
Coulee Bend True Bliss
(JKM Platinum Blue X Coulee Bend Contessa)
2014 Palomino Mare

We are so excited about this young mare - she is a daughter of our one and only Coulee Bend Contessa who as most everyone knows, has been a cornerstone of our farm.
Bliss is a true blessing and we couldn't be happier. As a yearling and weanling Bliss won many Halter classes, and championships, she has done some bombproofing clinics and In hand trail classes - she is definately following in her mothers hoofsteps !!
Fast forward a year or two and Bliss has become a beautiful riding horse and now a first time mother to a gorgeous filly :

Contessa has been our local, provincial, and National Champion and our World Show Top 10 contender.
Contessa just never ceases to amaze us, and has taken to motherhood and a partial show career like a real trooper.
She is the most dependable horse for riding/ driving and having fun with here on the farm, we don't know what we would do without her !
Tess continues to be our personal mount at shows, and on the trails - she truly is the 'Morgan Horse' personified !
Her latest job her on the farm has been teaching our grandkids about horses, what better horse could we ask for.
AND then, at the age of 19, she blessed us with a beautiful palomino filly who we will be retaining as her replacement in our breeding program - what a beautiful legacy.
But wait, that doesn't mean she takes the year off, she is still doing leadline classes this summer as well, what a great mare !!
June 11th. 2018 was a terribly sad day when Contessa crossed the Rainbow Bridge, Rest In Peace Tess, till we meet again.....

This mare was nothing short of incredible. She was the matriach of our herd, our Foundation mare, and one of our best and most consistent producers. All her foals have size, type and good old morgan smarts ! She has produced foals that have gone on to be amazing performers in just about all divisions and won championships at just about all levels including the World Championship Show in Oklahoma City. Others have gone on to be life long family members and most of her fillies have become amazing additions to quality broodmare bands.
Rest well Miss T - we miss you !!
