Weekend of All Weekends

Saturday morning was an early one for us. Up to feed the herd at 6 am so our three boys would be ready for their first local show EVER! Our first show also, for the three of us. Very exciting stuff!

With all our gear including my few borrowed items packed, we loaded our two larger geldings into the Sardine Can. The 2 year old little pony took his first trip off the farm since arriving ages ago in style, snuggling right into a friend's 3 + 1, beside/under one of her friendly young mares. The entire day was quite a social plunge for little Scout.

Kaleb and Scout's event was first on our roster for the day, with Patrick and Bill's being last. They all won first place! Lead line for the youngsters and Bareback Dollar Ride for the geezers.

My events were scattered through the rest of the day. Western Pleasure was a joke, as was English Pleasure but turns out that English Equitation was right up our alley! We placed 3rd in a class of about 12 or 15. I still can't believe I heard our names over the loud speakers.

More on the rest of our weekend, including pics later!
