Day 126
November 13, 2011
Home

The closet (as known by my close friends). This closet was originally filled with all of our wedding gift. Over the past, um, six month it has been filled with just about everything. Embarrassing! I do have to tell you that I did clean it out and while it still does contain all of our wedding gift and a bag of Tositos, I did put the yoga mat in its proper place (along with many other things)!


Day 125

Ft. Worth

Exhausted, but I will still pose for a picture! Such a good girl. Oh, and by the way,  we placed Third in Novice Amateur Hunter Under Saddle and Third in Amateur Equitation. Not bad after seven years and only riding a deaf horse a handful of time!

 So, this is the only picture that was taken of Pumpkin and me (obviously NOT great). Love her! The second picture is also NOT great, however MANY, MANY hours were spent in this arena when I showed Quater Horses back in the day. Being at this show made me truly miss showing horses. Showing horse is my happy place. I can't wait for summer 2012 to show more with Carly!
