Yes, just a horse and a saddle is all that I need to make me happy! :) Give me the reins I am ready! As you know I really love horses. God has opened the door for me this past week for me to be able to help out with Mrs. Pitchlers horses ( a lady from my church.). I prayed and asked God that I might be able to take some lessons or help someone who has them. God did!! I am going to go every Wed. and clean the stalls and exercise them for about two hours! The horses names are Solo and Ashley! They are both very beautiful and gentle. I know that tomorrow I am going to be really sore. Well, I took some pictures and you will most likely see lots more in the next couple of weeks! I am glad that I still have my camera though. As we were riding I had the camera in my pocket and it fell out. I noticed it when we were done riding. Luckily it was only a few feet away. What would I do without my camera? HAHAHA.
This is Spunky. He is so tiny and cuddly!
He rode with us to the park and enjoyed the long walk behind the horses.
This is Solo and Ashley munching on hay after the trail ride.
" Thanks for getting my good side."
LOL!
That's so cool Hannah! I love horses too. I wish our horse was big enough to ride. :P lol

We need to get together and ride sometime! I felt bad that we didn't get to ride together for the AHG thing. I always want sit on his back but I know that I might break it! :) see ya Friday!
DeleteThat's awesome <3
ReplyDeleteI think that it is awesome too! I am glad that God has allowed me to do it! :)
DeleteOOOH!!! I am sooo happy for you! What do you ride...English or Western? What are you learning now? (BTW: Have you learned posting yet?)
ReplyDeleteHey Bre! I am riding western! Well, I am not really taking lessons. She is teaching me some things but, I am mainly going to help excercise the horses and stuff. Yes! When I trot I don't really think about it. I just kind of post naturally now! :)
DeleteNeat! I love all of that stuff! Good! That is really great! I love to post! To me, sitting the trot is just...well...torture! But, then posting for long periods of time can be torture, too! : ) About 6 months ago, I began riding lessons again. I did it for about a month, but then I stopped(it wasn't really practical for right now). But when I was taking the lessons, she would have me ride nonstop from 4:00 to about 8:00! And obviously, I would trot for a good amount of the time, and therefore, I would be posting for long periods of time! So, needless to say, I developed some serious leg muscles! : ) And the horse I rode was like about 4 hands taller than Cupcake, so hoisting the 30lb. western saddle on his back was virtually impossible!! : ) At least for me it was. : ) So, I developed some arm muscles, as well! : ) Hahaha!
DeleteYes, sometimes I post and soemtimes I just sit while trotting. Ashley( the horse I ride.) has a really smooth trot.) You did? Where did you take the lessons at? Oh my! I go for a 2hr trail ride but I walk the horse for a little while. Did you ride more after riding from 4 to 8? I bet! Ouch! I can imagine you were very sore the next day...?? That is one big horse! Send me pictures of you! :) ;)
