I need to start posting more often!

Whoa I've been slacking in the posting department!  A lot has been happening lately.  One of dad's good friends died about a week ago and Sonny and I have been progressing in our horsemanship.  We are working on spinning and 2 days ago as I was asking him to spin I didn't watch where my feet were and now my right foot is black and blue from where he "spun" on it .  It made it so I couldn't play with him yesterday or today...  *growls* I'm just going to suck it up and play with him when I get home later.  The past couple of weeks I've been playing on/off with bowing w/out a treat.  He doesn't have much (if any) back muscle so I've had to take it very slowly to prevent injury.  For a while instead of going down into a bow he'd try to back up with 3 legs (I was holding one of them.) .  Now after a LOT of sweat and tears he's gotten the idea of 'bowing'.  YAY!!!!!  He doesn't go into a full bow yet.  B/c he isn't ready but all I have to do to ask him to try to bow is grab a front leg, bend it, and slowly draw it back and down towards the ground.  I am SOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!  After I've got going down into a bow fully I can then teach him how to lie down on command!!!!!!!  Enough with that now :) .
Sonny and I are also playing in L4 and L5 now!!!!  I can do some of the things on the L4 online assessment and a lot of the things on the L4 freestyle assessment!  I can some/most of the time ride him around bareback w/out a neck-rope and carrot stick!!!!!  WOO HOO!!!!!  I am so blessed with this awesome horse...
