Day Fourteen

        Sunday I had my second show. I was so cute! I was last in every class, but you should have seen my competition. They were huge!! Big, giant halter horses. And actual horses, Paints and Quarter horses. I’m just a pony! But I stood out there just as proud as can be! I tried my hardest at showmanship too, but all the other horses were older and wiser than me. But I tried to stand very quiet and good for Sam, even though it got really boring standing out there. 

The rest of the show I mostly just sat around and ate my hay. Michael took me out to the arena and lunged me a little bit. I had a blast and even let loose a couple bucks. It was great to be in there in all the excitement of everyone getting ready for their class. Soon that will be me! 


Yesterday was windy, so I just lay around and napped all day. Today Michael made me go through this scary white curtain that was blowing around. I went through it, but I sure didn’t want to. Eventually I calmed down, but I think I’ve got too much energy. Sam says she’s cutting back my alfalfa. I’m a little bummed about that, but I definitely feel more explosive lately. Every time I get lunged I just want to run and jump and go crazy. It’s a little too much energy to hold pent up all the time. 

Jack going through that crazy curtain!
I definitely don’t mind being roped anymore. They’ve been throwing that darn rope all over me. I get it already, I don’t care about the rope! Stop throwing it at me!
