Sunday

Hey Everyone!

I probably wont write in probably a week or so because I'm sooooooooooo busy with school now that its the last quarter and have Exams and PASS and reports and good stuff like that! So this coming Sunday I am going to the Aiken show! I have worked sooooooo hard these past 2 months. I am 100% sure we'll do so much more better this show than the last. Maybe we'll even place! Were not exacly sure on what day we are leaving. Its a 31/2 hour drive and my classes start at 9 so we might leave saturday. Thats all for now! Wish me luck!!!!

Getting Ready!

Hey everyone!

Well, today we had Buzzy from Hunters Green come out and body clip Badger for us! Last year when we had it done he had a full coat so she had to use the huge clippers on him and give him some sedative. This time since I kept a heavy blanket on him she only needed to use the small clippers and he was amazingly well behaved! We did have to twitch him though when it came to his left back leg. Thats the one that he injured before I got him and he's always been really picky on who can touch it and who cant. I'm the only one he allows to mess with it! I'll post pictures of him soon. For awhile we were practicing Hunters but me and Jenn found it very boring and so did Badger! We have knocked that idea out of our head and are back into Jumper and Dressage! We did find this Dressage trainer who travels, so were gonna give her a call and see if I can take some lessons from her. We will be going to the first PSJ show in Aiken but only attending Sunday because Jenn will be out of town Friday and Saturday. Then we'll be heading up to Tryon. Well that all for right now! ***Sara***

First Post

Hello!

This is my first post for this blog! I had to make a whole new blog because this morning I couldn't log in and I've been trying and trying but its like the old J&B blog where we never figured out why we couldn't log in. That's why we had to make a new one.

So for those of you who are new to my blog this is a blog about me and my horse Badger and all the crazy adventures we have! Currently Badger can perform 1st level Dressage moves and we have jumped 3'6. I have had Badger a year and 5 months. We show in the Jumpers and we currently have 3 shows coming up in May.

A little about myself! I am 14 and have been riding for 3 years. I took a year off to play soccer and didn't like it as much as I used to. I loved horseback riding so much more. My plan for myself is to major in Equine management and anything else I can major in that involves equine. Eventually I want to ride in the Olympics and own a show barn, travel the world riding and training pristine horses.

My mom manages the barn I am currently at called J&B Stables. I have a trainer named Jenn and she is the best! We have a barn family who all get along great! Thats all for my first post.
