Very Snowy

It's very snowy out and it's almost March! The good news is that it's going to get back up to the 40s by the middle of next week. I thought I would share a video about my lifestyle. It's just about what I like to do such as riding my horse and cheerleading. This spring will be a year since I got Fox. I just love him so much. He hasn't given me an ounce of trouble since I've had him. If the weather is good, practices for the Reardan High School Equestrian Team start next week. My first meet is just next month in Wenatchee. I've been working hard lately getting Fox tuned up. Since I've been doing that, he's getting back into the routine of what work is like. We're going to see if we can pay Randy Durheim to use his arena for a little bit and work on some stuff. If we can, we'll being doing it next weekend. He lives walking distance from us. I am so itching to get out do something with my horse. I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. Happy Trails.

A beautiful sunny day yesterday!

It was a beautiful day yesterday. The sun was shining and birds were chirping spring is in the air. I can feel it. Here's some pictures of me ground driving Fox yesterday. He was a good boy. Since I've been tuning him up lately, he's now getting back into the groove of what it's like to be ridden and worked. Most horses are a little goofy after sitting around all winter. That's why it's a good idea to get them tuned up in the spring. Here's some pictures of me working with him in the sunshine yesterday.



A beautiful close up.




He's huge!




Ground driving the beautiful sunshine



Me and him loving




Last but not least, you can really see how large he is here. I'm 5'7" and Fox is about 15.2 1/2 or 15.3 hands. I know he's just a little under 16 hands. Plus he's got a high head set, which makes him seem really large. I hope you enjoy President's Day weekend.

A beautiful sunny day!

Well darn I don't have any pictures. I got to ride Fox today. He was so good. My mom or anybody wasn't here to take pictures. So I galloped the barrel pattern with Fox. He was so good! He was behaving like a gentleman today. Fox just took everything in stride like he usually does. Since I haven't ridden him in awhile, he's been a little ancy lately. All horses usually get a little ancy in the winter and early spring. It's no biggy. I just have to remember that so I can do some ground work with them before we saddle them up. I've been doing that with Fox and it works. Before I put the saddle on him, I just lunged him a little and it worked. Also while I was in the saddle before I started the patterns on him, I galloped him around in a few circles to get warmed up. It's always a good idea to do with horses, especially when they're a little ancy. Well that was my day for today. The only other thing I did was drove my brother and his kids into town today because they needed a ride. Have a great rest of the evening. Good night.

Snow pictures

Well here's some snow pics. No pictures of the horses. It's been super cold. I've just been staying in staying warm. I wish spring was here right now. Well it will come soon enough. I'm counting down the days until spring is here. After groundhog day which is next month, there will only be 6 more weeks until spring! Yes! Here's some pictures of the snow.



Ah here we go this is more like it. I can go ride Fox in all this.





Darn just a mirage. This is reality. But the sun is so beautiful with the sparkling snow. Don't worry. Spring will be here soon enough. I know it.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you all. Here's a picture of my good old horse Fox last spring when I first got him. He'll be 14 in 2011. He's 13 right now. The biggest thing for me in 2010 was the purchase of Fox. I posted this picture on one of my older blogs awhile back.
Have a great new year.

Winter Wonderland

Well I hope you all had a good Christmas and have a happy New Year. We moved Hala, our Icelandic filly that we adopted just recently out to the roundpen. The horses were going nuts.




My doofus goofus has the hots for Hala




The herd from left to right: Indy, Fox, Danny and Mythical. Butters, our little Shetland/Welsh pony filly is right behind them.



Last but not least, here's me ground driving Fox in the snow today.

I hope you enjoy the snowy weather. Blessings.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. May your dreams shine!
