last show... national title?

So we did our last show... got the yearling halter championship, yearling all-around (halter, lunge line, trail) and went grand under one judge. A GOOD weekend! We also helped to pay the show bill in a big way which I am extreamly happy about. We also got a great 20+ year old trophy to go with the halter win. We added her name to a long list of some very good horses. That was a great moment.

We also won my first ever neck sash :) I almost cried.

Its been a long 3 years.

From the day I found out I had RA and thought I would never ride again.... to finding out how true that really was. Though the cancer scare when I thought that I couldnt handle any thing else happening to me health wise. To today.

1 show left

So we went to the 2 day 4 judge show and did ok. Not as well in halter as I would have liked. There was another mare there that was like a hand taller.... and she won even though they could hardly lead her and she wasnt cliped..... oh well. We did manage to win a lunge line class and trail, and ended up being high point yearling all around.

They took the points from either halter mares, geldings, or stallions, then the placings from lunge line and train and we got the highest score. It must have been tight though I think we only won because we placed over more horses in halter than the stud did.

another day on the ..... school.....

So we dont have class untill monday, so although it was a total waste of time comming up to school this early it does mean that I can go home early to get ready for the show in plenty of time and not in a rush, like I thought I would be.

Cant wait to show!

Oh and I think I sprained my foot....dont ask me how but I did!

Back in Dorm

So I moved into dorm I have a fairly larg room, its actually a double that only I am living in (thank god!!) Got everything in ok, went to supper with the fokes and met some nice people. But now I have a hanger on. I mean I dont mind hanging out and stuff but not 24-7 with someone I just met 13 hours ago.

Showed a friends mare in halter this weekend, and showed in showmanship as well (first time in like 5 years!) I managed to place each day but I thought my placings in halter would be better. I did however end up in a crappy spot of the arena which made my 3yo appendex look more uneven then she was!

Yearling went home yesterday, her owners seemed ok but they tend to not talk unless somthing pisses them off so I guess its a good thing they were quiet.
