Summer's First Horse Show

Slideshow design generated with Smilebox

Summer had her first horse show today with some interesting circumstances. The horse she rode did not want to show today. He was hiding behind some trees out in the paddock. When they brought him into his stall, he decided it would be a good time for a nap. Once he was tacked up,  he gave her a hard time walking to the ring. He did ok once he was in the ring, thank goodness. She did so well today and we are so proud of her. She ended up getting two ribbons: one for third place and one for fifth place. She had one half of the bleachers filled with spectators just for her. Every local family member showed up as well as a few friends which was very exciting.

The icing on the cake was a celebratory lunch out afterwards, that never hurts :-)
