This week we had horse events Monday, Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday. We had company come Thursday through Sunday-Verna Mae and
Lavern stayed at our house. Karen had a cousin weekend planned with several cousins
staying with her, Helen, Edna, Loree, and Dorothy. We got to bed, kids and all
after 11PM the last 3 nights in a row. Friday night we had a speed show in
Boone. This was Jayden’s first time tying goats. She has practiced tying a got
twice, and practiced her dismount a few times. This was the first time she would
put it all together and do it in competition. She did a really good job. Her
horse has figured out to stop as Jayden dismounts and stands there and watch her. The goat was heavy and Jayden had a hard time flanking it. She did a
really good job tying it. She also ran barrels and poles. She had a couple
friends there to talk to while waiting on her horse. Tonight she wore her
helmet and so did her friend Mya. The boys played in the dirt around a tree and
were perfect the entire night 4 hours of it. There was no concession so Daddy
brought McDoanlds when he could finally make it at 8. Karen and her cousins stopped in time to see Jayden run barrels. It was a nice night for
it and Boone has a lot of nice shade.
