I'm Finally Back!

Hey there yall! I'm so sorry I haven't posted in like two weeks I've been so so busy with the Clemson show, school starting, and all the rain. Also I've had no Internet lately. As many of you know we went to Clemson for a horse show recently. What you may not know yet, is that we all rocked it! We had a rocky start because my horse trailer was broken. But we still made it there thanks to Rain and Shine who, loaned us their trailer. Thanks so much to everyone who made it possible for us to go! Kaijsa ruled in the dressage ring, Emily, Anne, and I rocked our flat classes and were always in the ribbons, Sean wowed us all with his insane riding over x-rails, and 2ft, Niki showed us all what a good sport she was, and Jessica wowed us all with her organization, and dedication. Amador did very well in jumpers so we have decided to change him to an eventer and do lots of jumpers. Emily who as always done well in hunters proved to us all that she could do jumpers as well. Thank you to all our parents, boyfriends, and Shelton who helped us so so much. We came back from the show to puddles, pond, and lakes all over the farm, and it's been raining ever since. Haha we are all excited to get back to working hard to get ready to start showing again. Check out MandM Farms blog for pics from the show. Till next time.

Goodness Gracious

Goodness gracious it has been rediculously hot out lately, we are all so exhausted. I'm so tired we all have been so busy getting prepared for the show at Clemson University next weekend. I rode Amador twice today. Also Kaijsa rode Em and worked on her dressage test, then she hopped on Winston for Brad aswell. They both looked awesome. keep up the good work Kaijsa. Emily was out here earlier this morning accompanied by her boyfriend Tyler. However since Gift isn't feeling a hundred percent Emily had a short lesson on Jack. Also since we don't have a full size dressage arena here at the farm Kaijsa and I went our to a neighboring farm to see if we could possibly use their full sized dressage arena, so hopefully we will have been over there a few times in the next week so we are properly prepared for our dressage tests.

You Should See the Other Guy

Yesterday Kaijsa and I got up early to feed and do stalls. When we were done we made a trip to Cainhoy Feed and Seed, then to Hunters Green Tack Shop where we got some stuff for our horses. Later we went to the meeting for the new high school equitation team. Thanks Holly and Susan for all your hard work and research. We are all so excited to start the season! After the meeting a bunch of us met up at the farm and headed out to the auction. We took a crew of 9 to the Walterboro Horse Auction. On the way our tire blew out so we all got to sit on the side of the road for an hour waiting for Kaijsa, Randal, and Holly to get back from going to get a spare tire since we didn't have one on the truck at the time. Thank you Randal and Mr. Mark for all your hard work hope it didn't ruin your first auction. Once we finally arrived at the auction Lexi and I were walking down the isle in the back when Lexi stopped to pet a mare and baby, when the mare stuck her head through the fence and lunged at Lexi's face! She is okay but the mare got her lip pretty good and Lexi now has a huge fat lip. I hate to say but it was absolutely hilarious. Later we sold Ginger to a good new home, then left. It was a hard sell we are all going to miss that cute little pony.
