Yvonne's Story
Donnie Jones and I have been married for 32 years and we have two girls that are just marvelous but 12 years apart. Lea, 30 & 5'2", is a hairdresser like my mother and has a two week wait to get an appointment with her. She has been married 4 years and is due in March, 2009 with my first grandchild. Her husband Joe is 6'4" and works for Weatherford in Pearland, Texas. My youngest is Dana, 18, 5'4" and is a senior in high school at Pearland. She got us involved with horses about 8 years ago and we have grown from 3 horses to 17. She shows Western Pleasure and Hunter Pleasure with our stallion, Aga Gamaan. The name of our ranch is Hackberry Arabians, located in Manvel, Texas, 18 miles south of Houston, Texas. All of our horses are just beautiful, visit our website at hackberryarabians dot com and look for yourself. (I'm not supposed to list my website, evidently)
Donnie and I have had an awesome life together. He has worked in the Oil & Gas industry all of his life and we have a home in Pearland, Texas on a golf course and the ranch 20 minutes a...Expand for more
way in Manvel, Texas. I have worked in the Oil & Gas industry doing accounting for many years while Lea was young and then when Dana came along I started my own Medical Administrative business for 15 years billing for doctors and selling software to doctors and training their staff. I had breast cancer in 1999, but cancer free now for 8 years. We now have Donnie's Oil & Gas company, Skyline Energy, LLC that I do the accounting and land & lease work for him and we live at the ranch full-time so I can get up in the morning and see the horses. We bought this ranch and it has a small 2 bedroom house that was built in the 1930's and remodeled it and we have two barns on 18 acres. We also have 40 acres behind us that is for trail riding. The little house reminds me so much of living in North Carolina and we love it out here. We are very proud of our horses and have shown in Texas, New Mexico and Kentucky. I look forward to hearing some other comments from my classmates to see what they have been doing for the past 35 years.
Love, Yvonne Morrison Jones
