[@lisamclain2549]

Hey, I can’t imagine anyone on this channel is mad at you for following your heart! We appreciate you sharing the adventure. Regarding Nattie, the fact that she went for so much almost certainly means someone will take good care of her. It is such a pleasure to “be” with such kind and caring people like your family. Thanks so very much!

[@jg4171]

@lisamclain2549 on the results of the auction it states Nattie was not sold neither was Jasmine.

[@cathyann1601]

I agree. If it doesn't happen, it's not to be, that the sweet girl meant for you and Oliver isn't there. You will meet her, and you will take her home, a great addition to your horse family. That girl will be a very fortunate horse.👍

[@michaelstickland5854]

I am sure pleased for you sharing the video. I certainly would enjoy seeing more of the auction. You folks will find the right horse at the right time I am certain. Like you said it just wasn't meant to be on this day. Wishing you folks all the very best now and in the future.

[@laurekoval8082]

Hopefully they will check natty had my heart just like oliver 1st time seeing him

[@beverlywhitehurst3364]

Absolutely.

[@carriedoxon2888]

I love horse auctions! I’d rather you leave with no horse instead of the wrong horse. I’m invested in Oliver’s happiness! 😂 She’s got to be the right girl!

[@darilynadams7281]

But what happens to the poor horses who are not sold?

[@juliecrawford7602]

Why would we be mad? The perfect Clydesdale will come along at the right time for you!

[@joannahatton99]

Disappointed, yes. Mad at you, no! Amazing how I can watch a video and have the same excitement and anticipation then the let down and disappointment right along with you! I know how it makes me feel so it must be unbelievably emotionally draining for your family! I also know it will happen, so will be with you on your journey until it does. So love Oliver - can't wait to see him when he meets his new lady! Onward and upward!

[@marygeorge5567]

Totally agree!! God's got JUST the One filly/mare (or both!) waiting for you!! Can't wait until then!! In the meantime, I'm watching as many of your WONDERFUL videos as I can...& learning LOTS!! We LOVE YOU, Rosas!!

[@sallyedmondson9275]

Nobody here is mad ! This is real life and real finances which aren’t easily replaced if we spend more than we can afford at that time. It will happen when the time, the mare and the money is right 👍❤️

[@bethmahoney2233]

I was so hopeful for you. I know you all are disappointed, but it just wasn’t meant to be, this time. I still believe the right one will come along for you. Keep the faith.

[@kken7764]

The perfect mate for Oliver will come along. You never go wrong listening to God.

[@EaglesandHorses71]

The right horse wasn’t at this auction. Your horse is out there and you will find her, just like you found Oliver. Keep your chin up.

[@Grace2Hope]

You’re not purchasing a horse to please the channel! You have a plan for the new horse! This channel is for showing us the process of finding Oliver’s mate! I love everything you do and this video was certainly not a disappointment. It was instructional! Bless you all!

[@carlaatkins2619]

I agree 💯

[@glendacisneros982]

You said that 💯 correct!!❤

[@frankg8946]

No one is mad. You had a budget and should be applauded for sticking to that budget. Also, you taught your children a valuable lesson that we don’t always get what we want.

[@rosemarygraham2815]

So true. An important lesson that not a lot of parents teach their children these days. And then those children have big problems when they grow up with their finances and sticking to a budget and paying their bills. Then they turn to their parents for loans and even move back home to live!! This seems to be becoming the norm now rather than the exception. So you are teaching your children valuable life lessons. ❤❤❤

[@heatherklick3667]

Don’t you even think we would be mad! We love you and your whole family ❤❤. Please stop worrying and just take a deep breath. Please give Oliver a hug for me. 😊

[@SugarDog2006]

So true 💯

[@stardust949]

Why should any of us be mad??! lol! Thank you for including us in your exciting journey----I just feel a little let down on YOUR behalf, especially with Becka and that sweet Natti----but WOW. I loved your little talk in the car with us driving away----you folks just got rained with SIGNS from God and the Universe. I Totally live my life by prayer, listening, paying attention---and Acceptance. I think your journey as a family and with your horses is your business, but you're also clever enough to know how to share it on social media. You're all AWESOME. Thank You.

[@SPSmith-qx4rp]

Love seeing the auctions!

[@mleimogollon265]

I second your reply , the same here for me ♡ Rosa family are so wholesome with integrity and kindness ! GBY

[@jeaninejones4382]

Just remember how you got Oliver. His mate will come however she comes.

[@nadinewalton3660]

Not mad at all - Letting the Holy Spirit lead is the right way to live!!! Praying for an open door soon! Hugs to everyone & may God continue to bless you all!

[@dorcasmoulton5028]

So what is the next sail of coming

[@Yearofthetiger24026]

Absolutely not leaving, your channel. I love channels with authenticity, not perfect endings for each exciting anticipation. Delayed gratification and all that. it certainly felt like the Universe was saying, 'No' to you buying one that day.. It must have been difficullt on the drive home and an anticlimax. Natty with Bekah, was adorable to watch and hearing Emery's adoration of the 2 week filly and her mama. The story continues and we still have Sioux to follow, carrying Oliver's offspring. And all of your other beautiful animals on the farm. Soon be swimming in the river time! ❤

[@stardust949]

Good Point!!!! Oliver's first time as a Daddy horse is coming up!!! I can't wait to see Sioux's foal, find out is it's a filly or a colt-----little half-Clydesdale. wow.

[@Yearofthetiger24026]

@@stardust949 I can't wait either,, Sioux is such a beautiful mare. I hope she has an easier time having this foal, than she did last year.

[@padfoot3]

Keep the faith, we aren’t going anywhere 💗

[@karenturner-wensel9536]

Right, On !!!!+ Here, Here!!! Well said!!!

[@karbon7784]

The right one will find her way to your homestead, just like Oliver. Love you're channel. ❤

[@danmartin8565]

No reason to be mad, not at all. This is the way it goes sometimes. The journey continues, so enjoy the process.

[@hildacasey7083]

Don’t worry! We’ll keep watching . I get excited ride along with you and disappointed right along with you, but we all know how that goes.

[@devikamenon2675]

This channel isn’t a TV fantasy for the entertainment of an audience. This is your *livelyhood*! You run a working farm, so do what’s best for your family, and your animals! Never mind the neigh-sayers!

[@janetwinslow5208]

Noticed when JR petted her, she responded muscling. She would be able to bond easily. That little baby looks like a little toy! I love peaches.

[@sandykay1951]

Not mad. That’s the way auctions go. Everything has to fall in place and it will

[@TheGypsyVanners]

Mad! Its just life! Stuff happens! And your life isnt a scripted video - the "surprises" sometimes of what doesnt happen - is part of it.

[@Sharon-Carrell]

I agree with y’all’s decision…100% we don’t see the bigger picture!

[@cindyllax]

Showing us your top 3 really helps us understand why you selete those and not others. Please don't let this stop you from posting in the future. Don't worry God has the right horse for you. When you least expect it will be in the barn being loved by you all...

[@aquamarine5180]

Brought tears to my eyes that Nattie could not be yours. I fell in love with her too! But much respect that you honored God by seeking his counsel and staying in your budget. Sometimes we don't understand but like you said, He sees the bigger picture. You show that you still trust Him even when He says no or not yet!

[@wolfwise1135]

I’m not angry, I love these horse shopping videos. I’ll never own a horse but I like dreaming of owning one and living vicariously through those who can live that dream.

[@Jan-qy5rk]

Great community here guys I can't see why anyone would be upset with you guys, life just doesn't go how we would like it to sometimes. I was routing for Nattie for Becca she is such a lovely young lady who really has the horses best interest at heart ❤️

[@dianapippin6658]

I'm disappointed and bummed that you weren't able to get Nattie, but I guess it wasn't meant to be. I pray the Lord will lead you to the right one. And no I am not mad. You did your best I think the Lord will provide the right horse to you. I will say Nattie had the most beautiful, big gentle eyes, she's precious. 🙏🙌🐎

[@barbthompson4256]

Things happen for a reason the right horse was not there for you. God will deliver in his time. Could never be angry about you not getting a horse I will follow you guys no matter what! Such wonderful people who care about all of their animals,

[@CeruleanTalon1]

You did the right thing. Follow your heart. Look what happened with sweet Oliver.

[@monicaswavel6074]

I'm so sorry about Nattie... love you guys! Praying for you to find the right one at the right time in the mighty name of Jesus 💖🙏 And thanks for taking us with you on this adventure of looking for the next one!

[@EagleSoul]

If we are here is because we support you so please don't think we're going to be mad. Why? It's your money, your project and your decision. I really get excited when I see all those potential partners to Oliver. Just like you guys I pray and leave it to the Lord. You'll get the perfect fit at the right time. I want the best for you guys. You're a hardworking family. Cheers from Silvana from South America Uruguay 🇺🇾

[@laurasnyder5926]

So sorry your dream didn't work. You followed the Lord's leading, that's number one! Hats off to your family. You put the Lord first. The Lord will supply the right horse for your vision of where He's leading the branding so to speak, of your business/farm/ranch. The horse He provides will solidify that branding. That's what I believe God will do to honor your family. Now the fun will be in seeing how God does it. It will be your own miracle how God works this out!!! I'm a new watcher from this year. . .

[@pierrewagenaar3162]

No we are not angry. Dont worry. Better luck next time

[@1965KareBear]

God will Bless you with the right Mare when it's the right time.. Keep the faith and trust in His path for your life.

[@joannahatton99]

Even after seeing the avalanche of "not mads" on here I couldn't help myself and had to add my own! Besides learning so much from you you really reach our hearts.❤ Suggestion: would love to see more of Becca's interaction with the horses. Her obvious love, gentleness, and firmness are such a draw. She is atleast as watchable as you. And Emri - please have her sing more! What a voice! Your son appears to be either shy or naturally reserved. He will come into his own and we will get to see more of him when he is ready. You, your family, and your horses (especially Oliver) have a gift for drawing us into to your world. Joanna

[@christinaveeckman111]

Don't worry this is a journey❤

[@bethb8276]

I fall in love with them all anyway 😂. Every horse is unique. The right one will come along when it's meant to be.

[@debehaidt3570]

Not mad. This was exciting! You brought the REAL story of emotions, anticipation and fluidity that is present at auctions. Felt like I was sitting on the bleachers too! Don't dumb a video down for us, please. We know God has your horse picked out and we are thrilled with the hunt! ❤

[@lisagilbert8472]

I know you all were bummed but I truly believe there was a reason why you did not get any of the horses, or foals. I would say keep the faith but I know you all already do that. I am so excited to keep watching and searching for Oliver’s soulmate! ❤❤

[@law7897]

Such a shame. I really thought Nattie would be coming home with you. But it wasn’t meant to be. I’m sure you’ll find the right horse at the right time for you xx

[@susanking9033]

One day off

[@sharoncameron7740]

The Right one is out there, trust God

[@patriciaarbuthnot9618]

Oh Nattie! She was such a nice mover!

[@CarnivoreStork]

Emery, wanted to let you know how much we always appreciate your kind voice overs to let us know what’s going on. Especially during the auctions 🖤

[@Auburnneil]

Proud of you guys. You were listening and watching for God’s leading. You’re right - it’s not “if”, it’s “when”. Thanks for sharing the event.

[@lyngruen8607]

Have a blessed day... the RIGHT ONE 🐎🐎🐎 will RISE ABOVE ALL 🐎❤️

[@deborahandrianos463]

There all just Stunning ❤what Beautiful Horses🙏😇🥰

[@lilliancastillo8089]

I am not a particularly religious person but I do believe in waiting for a feeling and I do believe that what is meant for you will not pass you by. So I commend you on waiting for that sign, that feeling, and for responsibly sticking to a budget you set for yourself. Not everyone has the strength to do that when faced with something they really want but is monetarily more than they planned for.

[@debrazorn8168]

Things will happen as they are meant to. When it falls into place you’ll say ah that’s why it happened that way! Try not to be discouraged and ignore any negativity you may receive. You have to do what’s right for you! Hang in there! As you know prayer is the way!!

[@elizetvillarejo8600]

The lord has the right horse for you. Let him take the lead! Stay safe.❤

[@barb7128]

This was a wonderful experience that you shared. Love your channel and how well you care for your horses. I always look forward to your new videos. The Lord and Holy Spirit will guide you and bring the right horse for Oliver and you. It would be fun if Oliver could be able to pick out his lady friend and I know this is not possible. I was fortunate in that my Great Pyrenees could pick out her puppy from a litter. It was so sweet to see her and the puppy she chose to have that initial contact touching noses. These two are so connected. You trust in the Lord and His leading in your heart and you’ll find Oliver’s “Bestie”. Bless you all. Thank your for Sharing

[@bsum1too]

God's got the right one for you picked out. Worring is not of the Lord!

[@budbundy364]

I am so glad that you DO listen to that inner voice. It will always be the right advice ❤ God bless your family ❤

[@robindelude3787]

Certainly NOT mad! Disappointed, yes, but not mad. You know your limits better than any of us. As many here have said, “If it is meant to be, it will be.” So, we are all just going to have to be content to watch Oliver and all of the other beautiful horses on the homestead. 🥰 There are more foals to come, so you guys will be too busy to be disappointed for very long. Take care, everyone!

[@catherinee.millard1831]

We all still love you guys! Maybe Oliver will always be just the ONE for your family. God has a purpose in all of this. You did the right thing, JR. You cannot go wrong listening to and following the Lord's leading. So go home knowing you are in just the right place horse-wise, and hug Oliver big time! ❤️ 😁

[@mtnpeace2]

Don’t worry about someone being mad. They can get glad in the same pants they got mad in. It’s your money, your farm and your lives. You take care of you and your family. All in good time you will have your second Clydesdale. Look how wonderfully Oliver turned out. You give the horses so much love and care. Any horse that comes to you is fortunate indeed. I love this channel and those who belong with it! ❤️🦋🙏

[@amel2784]

I actually cried when you let Mattie get away. The instant my eyes lighted on her when you first filmed her, I said, Thats the one!

[@OneBrightLightTN]

Not mad at y’all at all. God will bless you with the right horse when you least expect it.❤

[@pathinman2180]

Not to be worried. We are thankful that you showed us so much of Clydesdale make up! The differences between horses was great to see. Good video. I know you will find the right balance with Oliver

[@lisal4824]

I hope your viewers understand that there’s no guarantees about the outcome at a horse auction. You are showing us the process. I thought both of these Clydesdale auction videos were really interesting and I wish I could’ve been there to see the beautiful horses. You’ve got the right attitude. If it’s meant to be it’ll happen. You’re networking and doing all the right things. Patience and prays. Aloha and mahalo.

[@kittyandthekatz8046]

Love tagging along with you! Best wishes from Nova Scotia 🇨🇦

[@susanscully9523]

Heck no, not mad at yall. I am just sad the way it all worked out. God's timing is not our timing. Yall did a good job today. The right horse will come along.

[@mariagonzalez5119]

Totally agree it was not meant to be! All in divine timing! ❤

[@JCsJennifer726]

God is in control and the horse he wants you to have will come to you easily.🙏🏻🥰

[@janetwinslow5208]

Ready to see the Clydesdales! Love ya’ll. Fingers crossed!!

[@Dreamworld986]

No one should be mad at you. It's your money , not anyone else's, that will by the right horse when it comes along. I just feel sad that you didn't get Natty and also Jasmine. But as you said, when one door closes another opens.

[@Hollybank5]

Oh, don’t feel that way …. The perfect mare is out there , you just gotta keep looking …. Oliver deserves the BEAT possible mate ❤

[@Sympatico4u]

If I have learned anything in life, it is that God's timing and plan is always better than my plans and that everything happens for a reason. And Emeri, your camera work is absolutely wonderful. You should see what I do with a camera - heads are usually partially missing, either that or feet. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.😉

[@AmandaDoll-hi4dr]

Hi Jr have fun at the horses actions

[@collielove]

I’m so sorry the auction was disappointing for you. I’m glad you still showed the videos. It’s real life, and I’m glad to be able to offer you some condolence. Keep praying for the mare that’s right for your farm. God is still good. ❤😊✝️

[@timilisafogal6990]

Oh my goodness. Mad?? No way!! I was rooting for your family to bring Nattie home too. I'm certain that you will find the perfect Clyde mare. Not just for the fam, but for Oliver too.

[@SeniorBliss]

Aww I'm sorry it wasn't the day. Olivers queen will present herself. She will be stunning and lovely. After all, she's got to be the perfect one for our boy. Show Oliver some girls and let him pick lol

[@Cheedynamic]

Aw man, I was really hoping you'd get Natty. But it's as you say, it wasn't meant to be and it looked like you guys really tried! I hope no-one sends you any mean comments, and if you do my comment hides it ehehe.

[@snowplays3161]

There’s no reason for anyone to be mad. God has a plan. He just said to wait. He has something better for you all and Oliver. He’s such an amazing horse that he needs a lady to match him in every way. And she’s out there. You just haven’t met her yet. ❤️

[@marycoker99]

Hi 🙋‍♀️ 🐕 from Texas! It wasn't meant to be. You all have the best attitude. Fingers 🤞 crossed that next time everything works out. ❤

[@susanbelida6981]

I'm not mad at all. I was hoping for Nattie. The right Clydie will come along. Through your networking the right lady horse will come. I know Becca bonded with Nattie. I'm sure she is a bit sad. Thank you for taking all of us along on this journey. Lord bless you and your animals and farm.

[@vickilynn1204]

We will keep watching. Do not worry 😊

[@K9COP282]

There’s no way someone could be “ mad “ that you guys weren’t able to go home with a mare! You have to stay within your budget and be smart about it! You’ll find that mare for Oliver in due time! She’s out there!! ❤

[@forsythia33]

I watch horse auctions for fun, even though I can't buy a horse now. I miss my horses, and it's fun to 'shop' and guess the prices.

[@gingerk3077]

I'm so disappointed for all of you and for Oliver but not mad! I enjoyed the 2 videos of this auction - so many beautiful horses. I was so hoping that Nattie would be coming home with you but I'm sure she is going to a good home. The right horse will be along soon and I'll be looking forward to meeting her. Keep the videos coming - I enjoy them all.

[@pick10tennisjacquelinebogg23]

Personally I don't think you need to worry about your followers on this channel being upset. You were taking us on the adventure where the outcome was unknown. You said that up front. Also you tried -- RESPONSIBLY, I might add -- to buy a horse. It was an authentic experience. Period. I really enjoyed the adventure! 😊

[@Kat-gj9pq]

Move with the spirit. The right horse will show up at the right time.

[@paulasmith3590]

We are not mad. Go with your gut always. The one you should have will come up.

[@kaustavadhikary8940]

Sometimes it's not meant to be. Please don't blow your bank balance for a bunch of strangers on the internet. You will get another horse another day. But I really loved the video. Loved watching all those horses. Please do more such videos. ( Don't have to buy them) But it's still fun.

[@annaburns5382]

When it comes to horses, ya'll know what you are doing and you are trusting GOD in all this, so you can't go wrong. I don't feel let down or mad that you didn't buy a horse, and for those who did, they need to get over themselves! I really enjoy the shows. Clydesdales are so beautiful.

[@kngoff11]

I sure hate that you didn't get Nattie or Princess Peach. God will place the right one in your path when it's time. Good luck and God bless!

[@RoseTaliwe]

Please dont worry about disappointing us. Your videos are informative and honest thats all we need.

[@jeaninejones4382]

The right mare will arrive at the right time. And as auctions go this one was normal. You don’t always get what you want. The hunt goes on.

[@emmala3313]

That´s life. The right one will come and we will be watching :-) Love from Germany

[@susanbabineau7090]

The right time will happen.

[@beckysmith7778]

If people are mad at you for not getting a horse that would be so wrong!! They have to understand stand just because you go to a horse sale doesn't mean things will work out. It's a bummer you couldn't get one but no need to be mad at you guys.better luck next time. Thankyou for sharing your adventure.❤❤❤❤❤

[@cjdiffin7237]

Hey, I was praying and hoping with you. That little filly was adorable. Her Mama was very patient with her. There will be a next time. Can hardly wait. Love your channel! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Yorkiemom82]

You have to follow your heart. She will come when the time is right.

[@barbbenning9008]

Jr, the Holy Spirit leads, you followed. And he gave you wisdom. Think of this testimony of Whom you have chosen to be in control...sharing your life decisions w/ 100K. Wow! And He will continue to bless, ir's so hard for us to be patient. We are glad to be sharing in your adventures!! ❤

[@juliahelland6488]

Definitely not mad, I'm just sorry you didn't get Naddie! Everything will come together in do time. Please share the rest of the auction video. I really live watching!💯❣️ Thanks again for sharing!

[@peskycitizen7582]

If anyone on the channel is upset, that’s not your problem. You know your finances better than anyone as to what you can afford. You’ll find the perfect one sooner or later. ❤

[@nelldejong3459]

So enjoyed this video. Can imagine you guys were bummed out, but it just wasn't meant to be. It happend for a reason, I think. I pray the right girl for Oliver will come along soon 🙏 God bless you all from the Netherlands ❤

[@hollybryant4939]

If anyone gets upset with you, they have a serious problem! God's timing. Nattie reminded me so much of Oliver when you first found him. Why do I think you may end up with her down the road? I really liked Jasmine as well. Oh heck, I liked 'em all!!! Certain ones just pull at your heart. The right one is out there somewhere. No need to buy just to buy. Taking the horse, the temperament, Em, you even said all the points to consider. None of us are living with, working with that horse daily. We're all routing for you, praying the right horse at the right time. So many unique color patterns on these mares. Would really love to see the full video. Hang in there!!! You have one fan who won't ditch you!!! :D

[@micah06v8]

There's no reason for anyone to be mad. You were hopeful, we were hopeful, but it just wasn't meant to be right now. God will bring you the right horse when it's time and I doubt anybody will be upset with you guys about that.

[@rstom1199]

I think you are correct. Hold tight to your beliefs and faith. The right horse for you and Oliver are on the way.❤

[@ginak1598]

I'm glad to see restraint, it insure the future of your herd and farm that depend on you. 👍 But O MY CUTNESS babies ❤ and just beautiful horses, I would have lost the farm. GOD got this and coming your way.
