I'm starting 4-H and Sonny went EXTREME LBE during last nights play session!

So I FINALLY found a 4-H horse club in the area!  Woo Woo!  But you probably don't want to hear about that...

~SONNY~


~Online~
When we first started he was good.  His porcupine and driving was doing good.  And then we did the circling game with emphasis on the send :).  Well when I sent him he did EXACTLY what I wanted him to do and then he when TOTAL LBE!  AHH!!!  Bucking, striking (the air), running, playing, collecting himself, and just having fun.  It was so nice to watch him 'let loose'.  But when he took off like that he almost killed the dogs :}!  Levi and Jake like to herd the horses if they run and then when I got them to stop Sonny started to start jumping them O.O!  AGH!  Once he calmed down we played with a new way of how to changed direction that was on the new L3 online DVD.  After that we played with our...


~Freestyle~
We played with jumping, circle, and follow the rail.  I probably only rode for like 15-20 minutes?  He did good.  The only thing I can comment on is that he thought it was dinner time so he kept trying to go to the POD to get fed :}!

WE HAVE INTERNET!!! And the Camp Movie

GUESS WHAT!!!!  WE HAVE INTERNET AT THE HOUSE!!!  YAY!  My dad FINALLY got an aircard!  I'm going to start trying to post on a regular basis now:).

The horses and I have been having a whole lot of fun:)!  We have been playing w/ freestyle more than anything:)!  lol!

I rode Red last night and man did we have a blast:)!!!!  I got him moving off my legs a bit better and I got him turning and backing up!  YAY!  I also almost got bucked off him:)!  lol!  Lexi took off jogging and Red decided he was going to have fun and take off a buckin'!  lol!  He only did 2 little halfhearted bucks before I got him under control, but still they were bucks none the less!  Usually when I ride him he is like an old broke horse.  Yesterday a car horn went off and HE DIDN'T EVEN FLINCH!  YAY RED!!!  I like caps lock:D!  lol!  When I played on the ground with him I could do "helicopter" over his head and the extreme friendly game w/out him flinching, unlike just a couple of weeks ago he almost ran me over when I tried to do it.

I rode Sonny around with his halter and 1 rein and he did SPECTACULAR!  We rode at a trot in LOTS of straight lines:).  When I worked with him on the ground I did some Stick-2-Me and driving game.  He did OK.  Not his best but he still did it.  We also worked on backing by the tail and he did REALLY well.

Here is the video I promised of the camp~

A Good Poem...

When you run so fast to get somewhere
you miss half the fun of getting there
if you worry and hurry through your day
it's like an unopened gift
thrown away
Life is not a race
Do take is slower
hear the music
before the song is over."
