We Like Big Butts

Quater Horse Butts that is. Paul stopped by the barn today and was game to join me on the short loop- so we did a trail ride. Well, he hiked.

Wilbur's First Horse Show

This is what Wilbur was up to when I showed up at Robinson's Park in Livermore this morning. Calmly munching hay. Which is pretty much what he did all day save for his walks to the show ground.


I tried to lend a helping hand, since this was a KMT schooling show, by passing out ribbons. Quite challenging actually. No one seemed really interested in picking up their ribbons right away so I mostly just stood around with handfuls of them.
I found my niche in the back gate where I spent the time organizing the order and cajoling the pony kids to sign up for a spot.

Wilbur and I get a portrait snap on one of our walks! He's looking for a treat and my pockets were stuffed full of them!

Selfie of Wilbur and I wandering around in the warm up ring!
I KNOW you have treats mom!
Heading back home at the end of a great day! Go Wilbur!

When I'm Not Riding.....

I'm hiking the trails behind my new friend, Dawn, and her horse, Pepper. Wilbur wanted nothing to do with any of us so I let him finish his dinner.
