December Donuts

Introducing Smokey.  We've had Smokey for a long time.  He's one of my moms Quarter Horses and well, in short, I was having a little fun with him today.  He was a little frisky and jumpy at first but after a while he calmed right down again.  So then I decided to go grab the donuts out of the car and have a little snack.  Of course he wanted in on my powder sugary mess so we had a great little old time just goofing around.




Secret to a great flex...feed him donuts while mom's not looking!

December 2013: Home for the Holidays

Nice to be home and finished with my first semester at Texas Tech.  To start off being home for the holidays, I didn't see any better fit than to play with some horses!  So my mom and I worked with a few horses the day after I cam home.  Pickles, my moms Mustang Million palomino, has come so far since our times back in May.  He has matured to where he tries to please you and I mean really tries.  He lopes off smoothly on a lunge-line now and stops with my body language alone.  I'm very proud of how far he's come with the time I've been gone for college.



Stopping Off My Body Language

Sidestepping Towards me Over an Obstacle.

My mom said she y=couldn't get him on this cylindrical log...

So she was pretty happy when he got up there.

Nice soft pivot.
