Updates!

Hey guys, so some updates on our last week of summer! So all has been good and fun I worked with Chance on Saturday, and boy does he have some spunk! It took him one time of trying to kick me while lunging for him to really see that its not a good idea! Were thinking maybe the vet aged him a little older than he actually is with how he is coming back and all his spunk!...... his lip has a funny cut on it, we don't know what from but he doesn't like his mouth toutched and I wonder if that may be the cause? So we cant take pictures easily to age him....  he did pretty good after working with him for a few more minutes and calmed down and got to work....

Earlier this week (can't remember which day) we got the horses out and rode, I worked chuck on barrels and flat work.... I think Chuck is getting bored with barrels because he kinda just humps up and doesn't want to turn around them, so we are going to lay off them for awhile, Roni worked with Jack on cantering, because he loves to take off and bolt and has bolted with people on MANY different occasions and hes getting way better about it, Roni did very good with him!

Last night we all went on a square mile trail ride which is basicly riding 4 miles in total each road in our area is a mile long so you go in a square you go 4 miles :) we all had a good fun time, Chuck didn't like it though when we were way ahead of Roni and Nick and we went past the pig barns, he doesn't mind being alone but he sure didn't like those pigs, he would stop so I would squeeze bump and bump even harder moving up with the pressure and he would go, then he would stop again and we would alternate between the bumping and flexing when he stopped we got past the first of the 3 barns he calmed down and went along nicely.... we got back and continued to ride and work them that way they arn't in such a hurry to get home after a trail ride cause they get to work.... I worked with Chuck on more collection because we were riding english then we did some faster work and Roni did some cantering we had lots of fun so here are some videos for you guys and pics!!

Riding down the road....

Pretty shadow....

Chuck after our ride and workout wanted to come into the garage

Chance looking even better!

Above Roni cantering Jack and below me canter/almost a gallop with Chuck from horseback point of view and then Roni videoing me....

above is Chucks workout from earlier this week, you can see he just blows through it and tj and I were racing but he was on his bike around the barrel pattern.....  below is a video on how to clean a moldy bridle because Nick threw our bridles in a tub with something that was wet and they all got moldy so this is how to clean them :)

A video with people and horses from our barn that we ride at called High Bridge Horse Farm where we learn about God and how to ride horses :) and below is my newest music video called This Is How We Roll!
