Absolute Craziness

Well then... This has been a bit of a hiatus full of craziness. Number one reason for not posting was the lack of computer and WiFi passwords at all of the houses that I've been staying at... Number two reason is well... J... It's hard to stare at a computer screen (that was non-existent anyway)…

Singing and Eventing…

First off, I really think we need to appreciate #equestrianlife tanlines for a moment... I think there was one year that I wore shorts right out of the gate and thought I'd never see my legs this fluorescent again. Well hello there pale skin! Brantley and I had a pretty incredible clinic with Allison Springer…

And the World Turns…

Oh the weather outside is frightful. Actually, up until yesterday, it has been absolutely gorgeous! Even yesterday wasn't too bad minus the fact that it was so windy that a tractor-trailer rolled over on the Newport Bridge... Just a tad windy. Lots of power outages but luckily not at any of the houses that I'm…

Catching Zzzz in Negative Temps

First off, I wanted to put a shout out to my Blogger Secret Santa Emilie from Because Pony. I'm always amazed how talented this group of bloggers are. Thank you so much for this! I can't wait to see what else you have in store! Right now she is having a sale to support some…

Lost…

A little lost... I've definitely ridden Cody more than my own horse. You'd think I could say, "Well at least I'm in the saddle" but mentally, it's not the same. Although having my little shadow with me is a definite plus, it's not the same. I keep burying myself in work and not even purposely.…

6 Years Ago…

Another One Down!

Will I ever get tired of this? Especially now that we brought home a little satin this time? Yay for schooling shows and super awesome judges right? It's the white breeches. I think they're my new lucky breeches. Or the snazzy C4 belt, I can't really decide. All I know is that Brantley was an…

AKF 3-Phase : 4.23.17

So here's my horse being a BAMF in the warm up ring before our Stadium round... Yup... The unrideable horse over-jumping what is supposed to be a 2' vertical but honestly, I didn't get down to measure. I was definitely nervous. I had never done anything like this before and our issue of the year…
