Yesterday, I had a very nice ride on Kitty. She behaved like her age which is almost 14 in June! My girl is growing up! She usually acts like a two year old with tons of energy, but I guess she thought she could lean towards her Quarter horse side rather than her Arab side. She's fun!
In the past 2 weeks I have been "getting my act together" so to speak for my official "On tour" showing this summer. I'm trying to teach myself a few new tricks as well as my horses. For one thing, I'm getting my horses use to being stood on. One may never guess just how hard it is to train yourself to do this especially since all the horse has to do is move a step and you could go ker-plop to the ground. In addition to that, saddles are not large enough for cowboy boots, (I've discovered) and narrow horses are hard to balance on-a fat horse would be more suitable for this trick....but my horse are NOT ALLOWED to get fat!
The above picture is one of my favorite Senior pics of Dustin. Great Job, Monica! I want one! Below is Kitty during the senior pics. She supported Colty so he would stand nicely for pics. I laugh at this pic because my dog, Maggie, is UNDER Kitty. Kitty didn't mind the extra shadow, I guess.
This pic below is of Ted riding Chica all by himself over our "bridge."
He even trotted!!! Yes, ALL by Himself! Yehaw! Ride 'em, partner!
