Welcome back to Katching Up With Katie 💛🐴

Somehow this episode starts with haircuts and hats and ends with us planning a full black tie gala. We accidentally create a new life goal today and it is a big one. A future BOTH (Because Of The Horses) fundraiser event complete with gowns, cowboy hats, a red carpet moment and maybe even a trumpet announcement at the top of the stairs. It gets dramatic fast in the best way.

We also catch up on real ranch life. Taz the goat daddy is back to visit Blossom, Honey and Bee. We talk through foaling season plans and how we want to level up the content this year. And then there is the wildest update from Blue Bell. She gave us 79 oocytes in one aspiration which is almost unheard of. We break down what that means and what comes next.

There is cozy barn energy, winter vibes, plenty of laughing and of course some courtroom teasing because that saga is still coming. Wigs may already be ordered. Maybe.

Welcome back to Katching Up With Katie. Today we are in full cozy chaos mode with a soft Q and A. Abigail finally moved into her new house, we talk tiny kitchens and big knickknack energy, barn remodel updates, and what it is really like juggling construction with a busy farm.

Lindsay shares her honest fears and excitement about her first foaling season, we spiral into animal facts about elephants, giraffes, sharks and pandas, and then get serious for a minute about EHV1, biosecurity, and why some of the new mares are delayed coming to Running Springs. You will also hear about goat plans, the “weather tower,” and the now infamous coffee and donut debacle that is turning into a full courtroom episode.

Welcome back to Katching Up With Katie 🧶✨ I am officially knitting on camera now, which feels like the most on-brand cozy chaos. Lindsay is here for a big Q and A and we chat about everything happening at Running Springs. Denver’s World Show ride, what 2026 looks like for him, mini horse training plans, baby cows coming in the spring, and yes… Kennedy still wants her pond.

It is warm, silly, a little unhinged, and full of horse girl energy.

They Did… Better Than I Thought! | KUWK Nov 18, 2025

It’s officially freezing in Tennessee, and since I didn’t have enough “life updates” for a normal episode… we turned this into a full barn game night instead. ❄️ In today’s Katching Up With Katie, we’re bundled up, laughing way too hard, and putting Nate and Matt through some very serious (not really) farm trivia.

We go through everything from favorite horses and last summer’s baby goats to how many foals we actually have coming in 2026 — minis included! Then we switch to the chaotic word-matching game that always exposes who shares a brain cell…and who definitely does not. We also chat about Mo’s “middle name,” the upcoming World Show, and the VS Code Red coffee cart I get to help run this year. 🐴

These cozy, unfiltered episodes are some of my favorites because it really does feel like we’re all just hanging out in the barn together. 💕

Play along in the comments!

Did you get any of the trivia right? And what games should we try next time on Katching Up With Katie?

I Lost My Christmas Baby...What Hobby Should I do? Nov 11, 2025

The Farmer’s Almanac said we were in for a rough winter, and somehow that turned into weaning babies, sending Noelle off to her new home, and starting a full-blown grandma hobby night. Oh, and Kennedy decided to show off with nine embryos this week, so it’s safe to say things are a little chaotic around here. 😅

Between breeding updates, emotional goodbyes, and my questionable blue-light glasses choices, this week’s episode has a bit of everything. We’re talking Erlene, Sophie, Kennedy, Noelle, cozy barn life, and some late-night crafting chaos while planning for the World Show.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like trying to balance horse breeding, farm life, and everyday mayhem, welcome back to Katching Up With Katie.

It’s officially cozy-season chaos! Between planning the Christmas special, fall farm projects, and a little holiday whimsy talk, this episode of Katching Up With Katie might be one of my favorites yet. 💕

We’re catching up on everything from missed fall plans and Christmas ideas to Bo’s injury, Halloween costumes (including a turkey chase that almost happened 🤣), and what life on the farm looks like as winter rolls in. There’s plenty of laughter, storytelling, and a little bit of heart — because that’s just how life goes around here.

This one reminded me how important it is to slow down, find the magic in the small things, and appreciate every moment... even the messy, funny ones. 🐴

I'm BROKE Now... | Embarrassing Stories and Emergency Vet Trip Sep 30, 2025

So much has happened since the last episode 😅 From one of the scariest nights of my life when Winnie was hit by a car (and the wild vet bills that followed) to welcoming even more calves during calving season 🐮, this week has been a whirlwind on the farm.

We’re also getting ready for our big cattle sale this weekend, and of course the team and I couldn’t resist sharing some of our most embarrassing stories along the way 🙈 (you’ll never look at a gas station or Chick-fil-A biscuit the same again).

Life here is full of ups, downs, and plenty of laughs — thanks for catching up with us ❤️

Unsolved Mysteries - KVS Edition Sep 23, 2025

This week on Katching Up With Katie we had one of the wildest mornings yet 🐮 A newborn calf somehow ended up on the wrong side of the fence, and the whole team had to figure out how to reunite it with Lulu. Picture this: a puppy AND a calf riding together on the golf cart 🚜🐶🐮

We also talk about the possibility of twins, upcoming calves (it’s an N year for names, so drop your suggestions 👇), and Katie shares some hilarious herd-mom stories. Plus, Lindsay joins us for her 3-month “quarterly review,” complete with funny nicknames, learning curves, and another round of Who’s That Horse? 🐴

💬 Comment your favorite “N” name for the new calves and what questions you want us to ask Lindsay in her next check-in.

I Want A New Dog...What Should I Get? Sep 09, 2025

AD Download and play June’s Journey for free today: https://cherrypick.gg/KatieVanSlykeSept 🕵️‍♀️✨

This week on Katching Up With Katie, we’re recapping our big Labor Day weekend — and it was a wild one! From hosting our annual dove hunt (my favorite day of the year 🕊️), to leftover BBQ that lasted way too long, to late-night jam sessions and cornhole battles that went until the early morning hours… it was a marathon but so much fun.

We also talk about barn life updates, Abigail’s riding lesson, our newest mare Lexy, dog drama (and maybe the possibility of adding another pup 👀), and even the saga of me finally getting my Real ID. Lots of laughs, a little chaos, and plenty of catching up!

💬 Let us know in the comments: what’s your favorite part of a long holiday weekend — food, games, or just hanging out?

This week on Katching Up With Katie, we’ve got a packed episode full of big farm updates, new plans, and plenty of laughs. Ruby (a.k.a.

We talk about the bittersweet process of weaning foals, the funny chaos of foaling season (yes, Dairy Queen night gets brought up again 🍦), and the chiropractor visit for our broodmares.

On top of that, Matt finally gets called out about his supposed horse experience (time to put him to the test 🐴), we brainstorm ideas for a Halloween Special 🎃, and wrap things up with a hilarious word-association game that had us all in tears.

Abigail has been replaced... This is Lindsey Aug 09, 2025

Meet Lindsey — the newest member of the farm team! 🐴✨ In this episode of Katching Up With Katie, we’re sitting down to get to know her better, from her background in graphic design to her very first impressions of farm life. We talk about her favorite animals so far, some of the wild and surprising moments she’s already experienced (including Janis’s unexpected foaling!), and how she’s fitting into our busy foaling season and daily chaos.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to join the team here on the farm, this is a fun behind-the-scenes look — complete with a little animal quiz, plenty of laughs, and a peek at how much there is to learn when you’re surrounded by horses, minis, goats, and more. 🐐🐴

Say hello to Rikki! In today’s episode, I’m introducing you to the newest member of the farm—our absolutely stunning new mare with a stacked pedigree and some serious show-ring sparkle. I’ll walk you through her background, what makes her so special, and why I’m so excited about what she brings to our little herd.

We also cover a lot of ground in this catch-up—from new farm additions and breeding updates to what we’re planning for this upcoming season. It’s a full farm girl catch-up kind of day.

📦 The Reality of Growing the Farm – We’re still figuring out how to balance space, stallions, and timing. It's a lot—but we’re making it work, one horse at a time.

🐴 Katching Up with Katie | Baby Donkey Surprise, St. Lucia Trip Recap, & Sandals Resort Review

I'm back!! After a much-needed break for our 5-year anniversary, I'm finally home and so excited to share all the updates with you. In this episode, we're catching up on everything from our amazing trip to St. Lucia (with a full review of the Sandals resort), to what went down on the farm while I was away—including a surprise baby donkey we didn’t expect to meet so soon!

💍 We had such a fun time celebrating our anniversary in the Caribbean. I’m giving you the full scoop: how the resort compared to others, what I thought of the food, the actual best part of the trip, and whether I’d recommend Sandals St. Lucia to anyone thinking of booking a vacation there.

🐐 Meanwhile, back on the farm, things didn’t exactly go to plan! You’ll meet our brand new baby donkey and get the inside story on how he arrived way earlier than expected. I also chat about how hard it is to leave the animals—even for a beautiful tropical escape—and what it’s really like running a farm when you have to rely on someone else to hold down the fort.

We’re back with another round of chaos — and this time we’re covering everything from future foals to fried hair.

Katie shares why she’s officially done going blonde (spoiler: bleach and breakage), we attempt a “Try Not to Laugh” challenge and fail instantly, and we recap one of the most productive breeding days of the season — with news on who’s confirmed pregnant and what babies we might see next year.

Also:

🐐 Matt might be getting goats

🎁 There might be a housewarming party

🐓 We might be planning a chicken-themed kitchen (?!)

It’s a little unhinged, a little horsey, and a lot of fun — just another episode of Katching Up With Katie.

Who do you think will foal first?

What’s your worst haircut story?

Can you AI a mini horse or donkey? What happens if someone finds your dog years later? Let’s talk. 🐶🧬

In this episode of Katching Up With Katie, the full crew is finally back at the table — and we’re diving into everything from breeding updates to big ethical questions.

We’re breaking down how artificial insemination (AI) works in miniature horses and mini donkeys, and why it’s not always as straightforward as it is with full-size horses. Katie shares what it’s like working with Tennessee Equine and Dr. Emily to AI horses like Karen and Regina — and what makes it so tricky (hint: it’s not just the size).

We also get into a heated debate: if your dog goes missing and someone else finds them… years later… do you take the dog back? Or leave them with the new family? 👀

Plus: geocaching, couch giveaways, and what’s next for Penelope and Denver in the summer horse show circuit.
