Horse show 2010

Sooo... My last yeah of 4-H has come and gone.. But I have some PRETTY AWESOME MEMORIES! (And ribbons)

These summer days

This is a time of change, a time of learning, experience, love, fun, and probably more... Everything is just spinning by in a whirl, and I can't keep up! Garsh.

Well, county horse show in one week. Hannah is going to sew french cuffs, and a collar on my show shirt. So I am at Katrinas just about everyday learning to ride english. (Jumping too!). So if anyone actually reads this blog.... Stop by! :) It should be... Interesting.

Katrina and I went to the horse rescue this past week, and were shocked.. This guy had too many horses on too small of a "Pasture". More like a mud pit. As you can see, this horse is covered in crazy mud. Actually it wasn't even mud. It was manure. Sooo, Katrina took two out of the 18 head they received. This one is called "Blue" (We are going to change the name) She is a two year old blue roan. We groomed her good, and trimmed her up, and you wouldn't recognize her! I will post pictures tomorrow.

This is Georiga. She is a 5 year old foundation bred QH. A few years ago she was a gorgeous halter mare. She is now underweight, has rain rot, the sole of one of her front hooves is gone, and as you can see from this last picture, is beat up by her previous herd members. She is still not doing too good, but will post pictures of her healing process.

Indiana, known for it's bipolar weather, should also be known for its insane heat! Okay, It probably isin't as bad as some states west. But still, good grief! I have been working like crazy outside, and haven't been feeling too hot (pun not intended).

So this next week, I am going to be working three horses everyday, VBS in the evenings, and random stuff during the afternoon. 4-H honor interview on Monday too! Ahhh I am sorta (Really) nervous about that. I am even supposed to dress in something worthy of "a job interview". AHHH HELP! So yes, busy, busy. So I will keep posting pictures of our little projects! Will write later. TTFN


P.S. The title of this blog sounds like a sappy soap opera!

Me.

Find me on Polyvore

Summer is a creeper...

Well, I am not sure if this got cleared up.. Apparently the guys are NOT, I repeat, NOT coming down for camping. Yes, I am slightly upset, I have Area 1 show, and my Grandma's 90th birthday the same weekend they want to have it at Jacobs grandparents (?). So Yeah, my bubble has been burst.

Sorry for the (Very) brief post yesterday. We (Jessica, Hannah, and I) have started a new, and improved blog. It is called amplify... Here is a sample of our awesomeness...

"What is AMPLIFY? Well, right now it's a group of on fire, spirit-filled, gospel gangster, Jesus freak, Bible-studying, ninja-kicking, praise-and-worshiping, intense-praying teenage girls. But who knows where it will go. We have no limits, we have no fear, and honestly, we have no plan. But God does, so we're letting Him in the drivers seat. We'll all just pile in the back with the windows down jamming to K-LOVE.


All we know, is that this is going to be Big, and Awesome. And a bunch of other adjectives. It's time to turn it up a little. It's time to AMPLIFY."

 Sooo, there you have it... so click HERE! to check it out!!! NOW!!!

So I am excited, tomorrow I am going with Katrina to the park to ride all day! Can you say a step closer to a tan?! (Okay, seriously kidding) I just can't wait to ride!!! yay!

On a side note, I am very impressed with my blogging abilities! I mean did you see that link?! "HERE" and all that :) Wow... just made my day. Well, like when working with horses, always end on a good note. So TTFN!

Amplify

Stop what you are doing RIGHT NOW... And go to www.amplify10.blogspot.com ... Just go.

Because it's (almost) June!

Wow... Really sorry guys... (All like, no followers) Life has gone past hectic on the verge of pure insanity.

So... 4-H is officially in full swing. Been over at Katrinas like, all the time. Alex has been working on my mom's camper. The 'E' key on my laptop sticks, so I have to push it extra hard, or multiple times. And, well, that pretty much sums it up.

I have also, pretty much decided that I am going to go for a degree in Phycology. Get my GED or something in the fall, get the boring classes out of the way at the CRC. Then in the fall of 2011, start classes. Yes, I decided this all of 20 minutes ago, so nothing is set in stone.

I am currently on a mission... It's a hard one... Get a summer tan... Yeah, pathetic I know. BUT it's SUMMER! So my pale little legs don't match the rest of me! When I ride, obviously I am wearing jeans, whereas I am wearing a tank top or something... So Yeah, I am literally half Indian.

I would absolutely post all 180 something pictures I took this weekend, BUT our internet is basically permanently occupied, resulting in the connection being slow. I do believe this is one of the most boring posts ever. I shall end your misery now.

All in moderation...

I feel like I should clarify something... Despite the pictures of me playing Cowgirl. I don't wear spurs, or use them on my horses. They would probably KILL me. But I got them at the HHF this year cause Katrina's horses are trained to spur stop and such, so it was a much needed investment.

Okay... Yesterday Auntie Jane asked me to feed stetson for her while she is in Israel. So before I head over to the dog meeting, I get to go over and deal with the boy. Ugh, I really don't like that horse. He's nice to ride, but on the ground... ugh, he flips out if you ask him to do anything such as lunging or anything. But as I pointed out, he's a dream to ride.

Ugh so this is wrapping up day two of my mysterious ailment. The headache lingers, even though I took Tylenol over two hours ago. I have a hint of a fever, and major body aches. Yippie. But I don't think I could ever feel bad enough to miss 4-H! haha

So off to get ready to go in 45 minutes. TTFN!!!
