It has been cold and windy for the past week, highs of 45. Today the sun was shinning and it got up to 60. There was one final horse show for the season at the Dayton arena. We took Jayden and Jacob while Luke went with Grammer and Po and was supposed to come later. It was a fun show geared for practice and the kids. Jake did really well on Winnie, he rode in walk and trot, barrels, and poles. He did some loping. Jayden did pleasure, milk can, barrels, poles, and a jumping event. Her horse Tex really jumps high for the jump event. Down in the arena, there was'nt any wind and the sun came out. It made for a nice day.
Match of broncs
went well today. Jayden carried the American flag and looks so awesome on her
horse when she rides so calm and smooth. She ran barrels and flags on Tex and
had good runs for both. The competition is so tough in Dayton. She has a group of very good competitive girls right around her age that she will be competing against forever. I tell her to
reflect on her own progress. She has improved so much and is running faster and
better. It still scares me to see her going so fast and I know Tex probably can
go faster yet. I am glad there is a photographer at these events. I am busy at the gate and don't get to take a photo or sit down until it's over.
