It's so great to be back online! We've had some computer "upgrades" that have been giving me a rash! But I think we're good to go now, so sit back, relax, and enjoy the sights and sounds (and not the smells) of this weekend's horse show that Horsegirl partcipated in.
This was a "schooling show," so I think the competition was somewhat friendly and relaxed. Everyone was practicing getting ready for the more serious shows to come. This is Horsegirl's first foray into competitions (outside the fair, which isn't very competitive, at least in her division), and frankly, we didn't know what to expect.
She entered three events in the "13 and under category." Here are some of my favorite photos:
He's standing square...he RARELY does that.
There were about 12-15 competitors in each of her events.
How cute is she?!!!!
In her 3 events, she placed 8th, 4th, and 1st. For some reason, this is the only picture I have of her with a ribbon (I guess I was wearing the other ones):
Even though she enjoyed the competition, what she REALLY wanted to do was to go on a trail ride in the woods that adjoined the equestrian center. But her events were so late in the day, we couldn't pull it off. Plus, it was wicked cold! Next time, girlie!
Are they starting to look alike?
Nah!
