Ok, I'm overdue on updates on both accounts, so here goes: I took Mckenna to St. Christopher's last weekend and did the leadline. It was so much fun! She really doesn't get to ride very often and I was so proud of her for staying so focused as she was walking around! We borrowed an adorable little pony and it took almost a whole village to get her ready! I decided for Devon I am hiring help - that was too stressful! Each little girl (maybe 6 of them) won 1st place and got a bag full of good swag (pinwheel, my little pony coloring book, and something else that I currently forget). Mckenna had a blast and was so happy! She cannot wait for Devon now. And of course has upped the times she's requested a pony of her own. Someone had a mini and she thought that was fantastic - she keeps asking for a pony small enough she can get on on her own. ![]() Pictures attached. And I've had an amazing horse on trial for about a month who officially became mine last week. He's a Tb/Han cross who is big and bay and sweet as the day is long. The assistant trainer saw him showing in Ocala and really liked him, which lead to him being on trial with her for a week, which lead to me flying to Ocala for a day (yes, one day) to try him and then him coming up north. He's done a bit of hunters and dressage - and also apparently enjoys trail riding too! I just love him. He came with the name Percy, which was getting shortened to Purse in the barn , so I quickly changed his name to Wesley. I just love him. He's game for my mistakes and really really LOVES to jump. A short video clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sYAQW3EWiY&feature=youtu.be So, busy but very exciting week in our house! |

Super updates! I cannot believe your daughter is that old! I would have thought she was a year at most!!!!! I love Wesley. I loved that he jumped the rail in the middle of the ring too. He must just love to jump. |

Thanks everyone. I adore him. We did a bounce exercise last night and his first time through, you could actually see the wheels in his brain turning with him wondering if he was supposed to jump the whole thing. Fortunately, he didn't! Tortoise - She'll be in the 3 and under class at Devon - she's turning 4 right after Devon (but very tall for her age). WFM - my trainer's comment at the end of the video was "He must REALLY like to jump!" |
