Aww, Thanks girls! Once again no riding today. I am horrible! I was busy out barn hopping with Emily and Jeanine. By the time I got to the barn he was just getting fed and I didn't want to take him away from his food. Tomorrow I am riding FOR SURE! |

Rode this morning. Nick was really good I did alot of walk and a small bit of trot. The indoor arena was REALLY hard so I didn't do much of anything. I mostly walked next to Shannyn on Reilly and chatted. I will ride again tomorrow and hopefully Jason will deep harrow the arena |

Rode yesterday. He was great! Just did a basic workout. w/t/c and I threw in some trot poles! Oooh scary, lol! At first he lifted his feet as high as he could, like what the hell is this?  Then once we went through them a few times he was fine. We haven't done poles since the fall so it was a nice change. We were working on keeping him straight through the poles. We did some simple changes and a couple walk to canter transitions. He was picking up his transitions very nicely! Im very proud of him! He has come a LONGG way! |

So my ride tonight was.. wow. I am really happy with him! I rode for a good 45 minutes to an hour. We did ALOT of w/t and trot-halt-trot transitions. We did a fair bit of canter as well. We were having such a good ride, I didn't want to get off, but he got really tired so I had to cool him out. There were also lessons going on so I didn't want to inturrupt the group lesson.

Went to the barn tonight with Emily, Lacey and Danielle! I rode Nick for about 20-30mins, w/t/c . Then Lacey got on did w/t for 5mins, then Danielle got on did w/t for about 5mins, then Emily got on for about 5mins too! I got back on then and popped Nick over a small cross rail! It was pathetic! I/we haven't jumped since the summer  It was fun though, im going to start jumping again soon! I am going to the barn tomorrow morning before work and riding. I'll post again tomorrow. |
