Will it ever stop!

Again i was really irritated when it started raining when i went to see Bow - typical English weather. :(

I was hopeing to explore different hacking roots but ended up going on a half hour hack :( but on the brighter side Bow was full of herself xD i dunno if she sensed my hyperness from the day before but she was raring to go ~:O we managed to not walk for most of the hack; i was concentrating on not letting her get cold but we cantering most of the way xD must be her change in feed.

Anyways, i've noticed that i enjoy grooming and looking after horses rather than riding them ~:O it's quite amazing for me really. But maybe it's got to do with hardly any jumping recently :( On another disapointing note, i can't go and see my baby next sunday :( gotta do some christmas shopping etc. Will miss the girlie :(

Random Hyperness ~:O

Well today in the horse riding world me and Josie went down hadham mill stables to see fatty. It was such a laugh. I played on the swing rope, then i climed a tree and almost fell off :P we started doing some random dance moves xD then played a little bit of chase me charlie - but on foot xD

So for the actually riding side of things.

Josie decided to ride fatty in his new and improved red bridle #:O then i bulit a two jump course xD and Josie finished off the day by jumping the fatster over a 4ft2 jump #:O they were both again so amazing for a fat little thing xD also when Josie and i measured the jump we realised that i had also jumped that high on Otis on thursday ~:O now i was shocked :P so thats all folks, dunno what me and Bowie are going to get up to tomorrow though - maybe another hack xD

Chase Me Charlie

Went for our hour lesson yesterday with Grace and Josie. :D

It was amazing, i got to ride my little Oatabix for the first time in ages so i was a very happy girlie. At the beginning we all warmed the horses up - and almost had a pile up teehee. :P Then we started the jumping of by going over a little bounce jump xD Was very entertaining as Fatty and Otis casually jumped it whilst Archie being his normal old self zooooomed over them :P

Now for the fun part - Chase Me Charlie.

I have never actually played chase me charlie but it was so fun. :D We all started of going over a little jump then as they got bigger, people got nocked out teehee. Josie was the first to go (but we all now that Josie and fatty can get over mega jumps anyways xD) Then i believe the jump went up to around 4ft (not sure exactly). So Grace and Archie refuses, and me being my normal crazy self decided to give it a go, :P At first i thought Otis was about to refuse, but amazingly he manged to jump it. :O I was so pleased with him - So now thats my new record xD welldone my little Oatabix. :)

Moving Stable.

Went to see Bow again today.

After a dry week i was hopeing to do a little bit of jumping, but how typical - it started to rain when we arrived! So, jumping was a no no. But i found out some exciting news. Bow and Sparkie are moving stables :D it is a fancy little place not far from were they are now. So most of the day i spent moving some of there things; i think they really enjoyed moving. :)

Well onto riding. Because it was raining so much, we decided to go for another hack - but we got just a little bit wet! For an hour and a half we trecked through fields, and i think we were both glad to get back to the nice cleaner stables :P

Fatty Fater Fat Fats.

So, went horse riding with Josie and Odo today :D

At first i decided to vault onto Odo's back. After being defeated with Bow almost biting me, i was all too aware that Odo might do the same. Afterall they are both quite similar: Both fat, can go really fast (when they want too) and can jump amazing heights (for being fat little things :P) But, i managed to do it! All on camera as well so look out on youtube :D

So let the jumping begin...

I was so proud of Odo today, not only did he jump up to 3ft4 but with me on his back :O now thats quite and acheivement :P then i let Josie show me how it's done :D she was once again amazing, but seeing as she has jumped Odo over 4ft i'm sure these jumps were nothing xD

Goodboy fats, Now lets see if one day i can jump the same height on Bowie :P

Too muddy!

Went to see the fats today expecting to do a little bit of jumping. (The last time i jumped it was before my holiday so i was pritty desperate to get going)!

But, unfortunately the field was extreamly muddy!

I decided to instead go for another hack over to cow fields. Thankfully because it is now winter all the cows are away so Bow doesn't get freaked out by them :) silly ponio. Went for a couple of gallops (had completely no brakes what so ever)! Siriously, she may be a fat little thing but she can shift.

I've decided that unless we get a dry spout, for the winter i'm not going to do any jumping (or dressage movements for that matter), it's simply too muddy. Oh and i thought it was soooo cute today, that after our ride, Bow neighed at me before we left. I hope we're getting closer now as i'm not making her jump at the moment; and because i'm the only one that gives her treats :P shhhh x

woop woop

Woop woop. Going riding with Josie and Fatty on Thursday which will be quite a laugh seeing as i have not been riding with my mates for quite a while :( also having an hours lesson with Grace and Josie on the 20th, looking at my videos on youtube i've realised that i desperatly need a lesson :S i'm falling into some terrible habbits but it'll also be great to ride some different horses :) miss riding at my yard now :( as i loan Bow i don't get to ride down there that often :(

Happy Hackers

Went for a little hack today with Bow. At first i attempted to vault onto her back whilst she was eating - not my brightest idea! I was too much aware that her teeth were edging nearer towards me, so i didn't manage to get up. I did get some great footage and commentary by my dad. He said, "Don't worry she won't bite you, she's just seeing what your doing!" How wrong my dad can be sometimes lol anyhow went for a small hack down 'black track' as we haven't been down there for a while. I managed to hold the camera whilst cantering along (theres a first time for everything) until Bow swerved right, down into this little pathway. I was too aware that there was a lake a few meters away so quickly grabbed what was left of my reins to stop her :P all in all she was a great girlie that day. Also, she has a very pritty clip for the winter :D great news as normally she gets too hot and sweaty afterwards :(
