Riding with Mrs. June

Hello everyone!

Today Ollie, Billie, my mom and I all were trailered (well, we rode in the truck...the horses were trailered) by Mrs. June to her house where she has a big track and 35 acres. We worked on lots of stuff, like flying lead changes, passing horses on the rail, the cloverleaf pattern, collection, bending....etc. I also saw Rusty again, who was the horse I learned the start of my Natural Horsemanship with. I thought y'all would probably enjoy some pictures, so here you go!

"Mommy wait! Let me pose for the camera! 1, 2, 3....tongue!!!"

Do you think I should still post about Ollie on this blog as well as Ollie's actual blog? Let me know in the comments! 

Ollie's New Bridle/Frisky Sherman

Today I went and got my bridle. It just so happened that the bridle that I wanted was not in stock, so I ended up buying a different one. I also got Ollie a new girth because his former one was too big. I had to take apart the bridle to put in the bit he used, but besides that everything went well. Of course, I had to get pictures!!!

It needs to be oiled so that it will be flexible, but I think it is beautiful!!

Afterwards, I needed to clean the stalls, so I let Sherman and Ollie out of the pen they have been cooped up in for the past two days. Ollie wasn't very frisky but Sherman sure was. Here are a few pictures that I got of him. 

(It was also foggy, cold, and frosty, so Sherman's energy was up already). 

Do you have treats???

My Show Horse

My mom told me yesterday that because we were so busy we probably wouldn't get a Christmas card with pictures done this year. I reassured my mom that I would take care of the Christmas card, and that is what I did this morning. I picked out the clothes theme, did my sister's hair, found the place for pictures, put the camera on a certain setting, pulled out almost all of our animals, and then my dad took the pictures. I had the pictures edited, and the card done by lunchtime.

Anyway,  my dad took a picture of Ollie and all I can see is SHOW HORSE.

Do you see it?? I cannot wait to get into the show ring this upcoming spring!!

Just because I wanted to (and because I thought you all would like it) I added some more pictures of me with Ollie and my mini, Rosie.

Let It Snow!!!!
