Fridays Hunt Try 2

Well its Friday again so time for Fridays Hunt at Eden Hills and this week the 3 were starts with c, indoors and weeks favorite.

First is the Letter c.  Hmm that is me!  But I hate selfies cause I am no good at them and hardly take them unless my pony is in them too so I got Collection.  Not mine, but at the barn I been riding at.
(that's a lot of bridles)

I don't take many indoor pics unless its a family occasion but this week happened to get a reward in the mail from the AQHA All Breeds riding program.  Its for riding any kind of horse except a registered Quarter Horse.  500 hours, that's a lot of hours on mostly a paint horse of course I been in the program since 2005 so 10 years but oh well at least I get rewarded and there is no time limit. I got an email saying they couldn't deliver to a post office box and could I give a street address, I gave my moms and they used her address and my town and so it got delivered to my box anyways lol.  Whatever works.  So my inside shot is the reward, its donated by John Deere and its kinda ugly but I'll probly use it anyways.
(My letter stating why I got a bag)

(and the actual bag in bright green and yellow)

And honestly I think the weeks favorite is my collection one although I took a pic for Sunday that I shouldn't share yet but it turned out real cool so here it is.
(the hawks nest by our driveway, unoccupied obviously)

Can't wait for next week :)

1 Day at the AQHA World Show

This morning we headed up to Oklahoma City so see the AQHA World show.


We knew a girl whose horse was competing in the senior driving class.  On the way up we got to see some pretty nice barns and places, and we saw Carol Rose's place, still makes me kinda sad that its for sale though.  And we went through Moore where Toby Kieth is from.  Sure and interesting Drive, I am glad we went even if it was almost 4 hours.  We got there early enough that we saw the Junior hunter under Saddle finals


and the Aged halter Mares...boy that was boring....so long.  They lined them up under all 4 judges before they finally placed them in the class.  I though it was never gonna end, but there was lots of people cheering so I guess someone liked it.




Then the class we came for :)  It was cool and of course I like driving anyways (even if its with bigger ponies) it was cool and her horse got 3rd so she got a trophy and a picture and a buckle and a coat.  Pretty fun! And then she made us get in her picture, not sure I wanted to be in it but she was so excited we did.









We also went to the trade fair, was pretty small I was disappointing but that's OK we got a better one this week :)  The amount of showy stuff, stalls and trophys and stuff around the barns is just crazy too!  But kinda fun to just be there.  And in the one barn was a hawk flying around was kinda unexpected.

Saw this cool log carving, that's one big log and to carve like that was just amazing!



And the waterfall outside celebrating their centennial in 2007, wish it was nicer out there was lots to see.

Got chilly and windy out and was almost freezing by the time we left, was kinda rainy and dark the whole way back but much warmer down here still.  Specially when I hear at home how cold it was.
