Proud Parent


I'm so proud of my youngest daughter. She participated in a horse show this morning and did really, really well.

She's been in school shows at the county barn where she's taken lessons for the past seven (?) years. She has won ribbons in her events, first place ribbons through sixth place and even sometimes no ribbon at all. Once she even won reserve champion of the overall show. Today's show was a little different for us.

This show was held at a private barn where she's had a few lessons. It was much smaller and very low key but winning or placing in the events earns the riders points towards competing in larger competitions. I don't understand all of it but this was a step up from the county school shows.

My daughter rode in five classes in her division, she won three 1st place ribbons, one 2nd place and one 4th place as well as division champion.

Yep I'm proud of my daughter.
