Upcoming

The softball season will officially end on Wednesday. Coming up next, the county fair! The girls have been working on their 4-H projects and are now in the “scramble to get things wrapped up” phase before judging begins next week.

Olivia belongs to the 4-H saddle club, which holds twice-weekly “workouts” for horses & riders starting in May. It’s been fun to see her grow so much in confidence and ability in just the last couple of months. From the girl to told me so emphatically, “I’m not doing bareback!” to this…

Bareback at a trot, even!

A demonstration of the pivot…

And from the girl who also emphatically informed me, “I’m not loping the barrels, I’ll just trot thankyouverymuch!” to this…
