Little Cowgirl!!

So, Teagen, (my six year old cousin) has been DYING to learn how to ride, and we are starting!! Here are some pictures from her being cute. I just CAN'T resist.

 

 

 

So, there are the pics. SO CUTE!!

 

 

Derping At The Barn

Okay, so have any of you ever seen the video on Youtube, with the gloves on the horse's ears??? Well, we tried it the other day, and let me say, DO NOT go on public busy roads with gloves on your horse's ears,, because you JUST MIGHT cause a wreck. It. Was. AWESOME.

 

Here she is with the gloves,,,,

 

 

AHHHHH!!!! Annie ate me head!!!! hehehehehehehe

 

 

She, is SOOOOO Majephtic, I like, CAN'T EVEN HANDLE IT.

 

 

 

Hahahaha!! So, yeah, we were derping at the barn. Will have more tonight hopefully, but, there aren't an guarantees. See y'all later

 

HOLD UP! WHAAAAAT?

Okay, so I have stumbled upon the single most SPECTACULAR tip in the world of horse showing. it all has to do with this,

Yes, you read me right, JOHNSON'S BABY POWDER.
"But how can this be?" you ask. Well, sit your tiny tushy down, and let me tell y'all about that baby powder.
       You see, as I was merrily scrolling along on Pinterest the other day, (yes, I'm on THERE too,) I came across a little tip, BABY POWDER UNTANGLES THE WORST KNOTS IN MANES. So, naturally an unbeliever, i decided to test this out for myself. And let me tell you, I'm a believer now. So, if you don't believe me, go try it out. And, then when it actually works, you can attempt to thank me. I need a new trailer, and a truck to go with it. You can start there.

No hour of Life spent in the saddle is wasted......

Now, if I can just convince DAD of that, well, my life might actually count for something. I DID however manage to coax him into riding Annie, and I have to say, I think it went well. See for yourself.

She was SO good to him! Normally she is pretty prancy (is that a word? Eh, never mind it is now.)  with me, but she knew exactly how much dad could handle and only went that far. Dad was a little apprehensive, as Annie is a good two and half to three hands higher than any of the other horses at grandpa's (She is about 17'2) AND he was riding in my too small English tack, which he isn't used to. But, of COURSE, my Gixie was SAINT.

 

That pretty much wraps up this post, but I have a few more I want to get out tonight. Most of them are already written, but we might add a few more. :)

Gone riding, be back whenever.........

Well, we FINALLY got a little saddle time today. It's been snowing and cold for WEEKS. I didn't realize we are so close to Arendelle. Oh well. The sky is sunny, and the breeze balmy! (well, sort of. At least we weren't freezing our bums off!) Here are the pictures! (Since we ALL know, no body reads a blog unless there are tips or pictures....or both. Both is good, we'll go with both.)

Me and Annie. Not the best picture ever taken, but we'll take it :P

And, colleen and star!!! They work so well together!

That's it for now, will post something interesting later.

Randomness!

So, I don't have an arena to ride in. Not new, I'm sure there are PLENTY of other riders who have to ride in fields/ on roads etc. BUT, can we talk MANNERS, please? I mea really? Do you HAVE to zip past my very skittish horse at say, 30 mph? And, would it please thy high-and-mightiness to GET OVER????? Kill your SPEED, not my STEED!
Okay, rant over. For now. Now, lets talk tack. I went tack shopping a few days ago, (as mentioned in a previous post) and got to use Annie's new bridle yesterday!! She looks SO cute!

   AHHHHH!!!! so Cute! So, anyway, I'm done for now. I have a few tips coming up, but I need to organize them first. Se you later! And,  Go hug your horse!

Merry Christmas and Happy new Year!

Happy New Years guys!! I know, there is like two people reading this, but oh well. Keeping up appearances and such, New years was great for us! How bout you? Well, anyway. Not to much happened over Christmas either. Although, I DID drag my big bro Ry Ry to the tack store so I could buy myself some Christmas presents. (and by me, I of course, mean Annie and Star. Got a new bridle for Annie, (wah WAHHH!?) and, ummm, new spurs for me. (My trainer gets mad when I wear my western spurs with English clothing.) and...OOH, a lasso! Been needin' one. Also took a cute oicture. Sorta. Here it is.

Kinda cute, huh? Annie also got a new purple rope halter! (purple and silver are her tack colors.)
gotta go, will post again in a day or so!
