They Did… Better Than I Thought! | KUWK

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?

I Lost My Christmas Baby...What Hobby Should I do?

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.🛍️ http://katievanslyke.netChapters00:00 Intro 00:18 Why I Almost Had a Heart Attack 06:22 ICSI 10:00 The Horse Whisperer 14:00 Should We Write a Song? 19:25 Knitting Hobby with Dani 27:00 World Show is Coming Up! #KatchingUpWithKatie #FarmLife #CountryVlog #KatieVanSlyke #HorseVlog #RanchLife▶Check out my new merch: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/new▶▶DIGITAL DOWNLOADS: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/digital-downloads===================================================================▶▶▶Connect With Me!Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/katievanslyke/Tik Tok - https://www.tiktok.com/@katievanslykeFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/katievanslyke96Snapchat - https://snapchat.com/t/ARF7dCaESubmit your videos - submissions.kvsreacts@gmail.comAffiliate links:Horse Feed: https://tributeequinenutrition.comAmazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/influencer-55302a79Hey y'all, I'm Katie!

Abigail has been replaced... This is Lindsey

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. 🐐🐴Chapters00:00 - Let’s Get Started 02:20 - Worst Best Birthday 04:15 - Favorite Horse? 10:10 - Crazy Story! 26:00 - Did Lindsey Know Abigail Before? 28:50 - Testing Lindsey 30:53 - Which Horse Is This? 34:00 - Wrapping Up#farmanimals #horse #babyanimals #equestrian #minihorse #pony ▶Check out my new merch: https://katievanslyke.net/collections...▶▶DIGITAL DOWNLOADS: https://katievanslyke.net/collections...===================================================================▶▶▶Connect With Me!Instagram - a...
