Fun weekend!

Wow, time is really getting away from me!!!

Quick recap! Friday night we went to the Karaoke bar and I sang Julie Roberts song "Break down here", which was totally fun. Then we went out dancing.

Saturday we were invited to hang out at Pat's barn with him!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS AWESOME!!! We got to watch him play with his stallion, then we got hang out with the three babies, which were ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want to take one home! They were so sweet. Then we watched him and his son and Fawn Anderson work some cows. Totally awesome!! Then he asked us all what our goals were. It was totally the coolest thing to be up there and watch him at play!

Then we went to the mustang challenge and watched Linda put on a demo and then 4 of her instructors came in to play, so that was super cool. That evening we watched the mustang challenge and the Parelli Instructor won! It was awesome! He cantered into the trailer on the horses back!! Some of the other contestants were very hard to watch and we were only there for the top 10, so I can't imagine what others looked like. But then again, I'm a Parelli student now so almost everything non Parelli makes me cringe :(

Sunday we watched a bit of the auction and Jesse's (the Parelli Instructors horse) was bought by one of the guys that works on the ranch for his 7 year old son. It was super cute. And there was also a parelli student that got 4th in the competition and her dad bought the mustang for her and she left crying. It was so sweet.

After that we decided to go swimming with our horses. Well, it was only me and Leslie that wanted to go all the way it. It was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much fun!
You'll see the pics on facebook. I'll also post the video's!
Anyway, the one problem was that she kept putting her head under water!!! So we swam, but she'd put her head under water, so we'd head back to shore so she didn't drown! It was the funniest thing! Anyway, it was just super duper fun, and the vids will be posted on youtube, look up MsPureBlue.

Today I did the demo and we worked on finesse. I had to shorten up my reins big time! So that her shoulder would stay underneath her and her neck wouldn't do all the turning. It was super cool and Kathy was the teacher. Everyone said it was super cool to see the change. Too bad I didn't get a video of that :(

I put on the cradle bridle today and we just played online after our riding session to get her used to it for the rest of the week.

Anyway, I'm totally scattered brain because I'm doing too many things at once, so most of this probably doesn't make sense! Anyway, off to give Blue her supper.
