Both rides this weekend were awesome. My friend and I set up some cross rails (low by most people's standards, but bigger than anything we've ever done) and took turns jumping them. I had so much fun! Jumping is fun for me, and it gives me purpose to some riding maneuvers that I was lacking. I'm seeing a new path for Gav and I for sure. Without further ado, here is one vid my friend's husband took of Gav and I. Keep in mind - I don't really know what I'm doing jumping wise, just trying to go with him and be kind with my hands. (aka - I really, really want jumping lessons!)
Next video is of my friend Laura and her pony Sterling doing the ole Black Beauty get-on-horse-while-they're-laying-down moves. Pretty cool.
I'm a proud horse owner this weekend, and one that had a lot of fun! Oh yeh - and Cardi won the USDF national championship in the Grand Prix freestyle - so awesome! :)
Love that Cardi won! Gav and you look like you're enjoying yourselves and he's such a good boy!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, he is such a good boy! :)
DeleteLove that you guys are out of the sore feet stage and back to having fun together ☺
ReplyDeleteI'm loving it too! I don't realize how miserable I get when I can't ride until I get to ride again.
DeleteInnorite! Crazy how much our happiness is intertwined with theirs!
Deleteyou two look cute over that X! nice job :) jumping lessons are pretty much the most fun ever!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yeh, I really want some lessons but I don't know where to start looking. (I board at a primarily western barn)
DeleteYa'll look great jumping!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I enjoy it, and I think he does too!!
DeleteWhat a good boy, and he got his lead! Fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI know! And it's not like I'm asking for anything. I wouldn't even know how to ask!
DeleteGav is SO CUTE over that crossrail!
ReplyDeleteThank you! :) He's a cutie! Hey - if you read this, do you have a blog? When I click on your name I go to what looks like a profile page, but I can't figure out the set-up?
