I MISSED IT!!! I was fighting with Hagadorn Spartacus who chose, at that very moment, to call me with a drama queen melt down. :mallet:

Sigh....congrats!

I think it's Bear's fault the rain started! Was that Bear next to Heinie?

I'm going to start teaching a manners class that teaches people not to call during horse show hours. That leaves a window from 7:30 in the morning and 8:30-9pm.

Yes but that was the time I told him to call me because he tried to have his drama queen meltdown during the Reg Conf and that simply wasn't going to happen! Which he did say upset him that I wasn't able to talk earlier in the day...geesh....get over yourself..I'm not your therapist....AND you are interrupting my horse show!!

My horse was great and yes he was second. I was one proud momma!

LBM was awesome and RBK rode her great. All three trips were so consistent and nice. They took ribbons in all three o/f, I remember a second and a sixth, but I am not sure of the other ribbon.

The weather held up and we are all staying positive for tomorrow!

Just got home and the first thing we did was log on to see how Frisbee's horse did. We are so, so, so happy for her!!! :clap: :cheer: :clap: :cheer:

It was a fun day. Very happy with LBM. After watching her today, I think she is totally in love with Enrique <3 A couple of times my husband walked over to me and pointed to LBM and Enrique and said "She's so well behaved and stands like a statue." It was so nice to for LBM's CANTER rider to be there and watch her. I have a great picture of them and it reminds me of a "full circle" effect.

I tried to stay for Back For The Hack to watch Heinken, but the weather seemed to be turning and I have a 7am meeting tomorrow. I am sure she and Duplo was awesome.

This is NO joke. As I walked in the tent for the Exhibitor Party I was met with ThePrayerList and this is what he had to say "THEY RAN OUT OF WHITE WINE! I am filing a complaint." For the three hour ride home, my husband and I have laughed none stop about that. It was great seeing him, especially since this time he "recognized" me.

Every one was so nice and a blast to be with. I can't wait for Swannie because Frisbee will be and the "Baker" coolness factor is so evident in RBK's sister. Honestly, I have no idea how RBK does this week after week with all the horses, people, etc. On the way home, my husband said the next time I complain I had a hard day at work he is going to remind what RBK does in the first three hours of a horse show.

Heinekin needs to report in as soon as she arrives home. Another storm just blew in and I had a heck of a time getting home with the weather.

Off visiting Candy Cave, be right back.

Oh god...home and in my bed. Duplo is linimented and wrapped in his house. It was a LONG day and the short version is my horse was a liar, lol! He was SO QUIET in both warm up rings so I didn't do much, we walked in the show ring and he woke up and exploded a little on the right lead canter. I'll download and post my pics tomorrow and show off his GORGEOUS tail braid(thanks RHowell). He was really a good boy all day except when it mattered but next year I'm hoping for the Small Hunters and the Adults even maybe. And even if all I do is the BFTTH again, I'll ride the everloving CRAP out of him even if he's lying to me ;)

Have been up since 3AM and have a meeting with the head of school and the parents of the child who IM'ed me "Hiel Hitler" last week...have I ever mentioned I'm Jewish??? Oy. So tired but so pleased. If we got nothing out of the day except a spook proof horse then so be it! I was a proud mama for a lot of reasons!

I'm about to pass out but sweet goodness, could those classes have gone any later? I cannot believe the numbers this year. I mean, it was getting rather dark by the time they pinned the TB development thing. And if anyone was watching the very first to go in that TB class, that was my little pumpkin. He decided it was necessary to jump the bejeezus out of every jump. He's so brave! He really surprised me all day. It's a lot for a 4 year old at his first real show to show at 8am and 7pm on the same day!

oh and i was also the one hopping and swapping in the hack haha. woopee. He still got fourth, which is slightly disturbing haha.

No no no.
It was sprinkling there before the tail went up :P
And it stayed a sprinkle, the water truck put down more water than what came from the sky.

I had a blast. Bear was so freakin good, considering this was his 2nd show in a year :cheer:
No ribbon, but a memory that will last forever :wub:

Magee and I got home last night- what a great time! He was done showing at noon so had some tine for retail therapy-always fun!

Magee was such a good boy. Did the 3' pre G's and got an 8th and then a 5th in the hack. I was so proud of him! Had a serious issue with figuring out how to canter down an incline and stay balanced. The only hill we have in Va Beach is our manure pile. He tried so hard and he stayed focused-he's a saint.

Glad to heat everyone is having a good time. Now I am back at my desk-yuck!
