Winter Galloping


Katie was having fun trotting, cantering, and galloping around her pasture one winter day!

Back in the Saddle



My Aunt Kathy was the first to ride Katie today!


I had to get back on her sometime and today was the day. She was so good. I am glad I did!



My cousin Lizzy rode Katie for a little bit too!


My cousin Sydney got to cool Katie out!

My Accident


In May, Katie bucked me off. I got a bloody nose and a sore body. I never wanted to ride her again. I wanted to sell her and never see her again. I was really angry at her. I didn't sell her because of it was a mistake I had made. It took a while before I decided to get back in the saddle but I did it. I am glad I over came my fear. It was kind of good to get bucked off though cause when you think about it, I am not as scared to fall off and I knew it would happen sooner or later. I am glad I didn't sell Katie. She is still a learning youngster. She is the best horse I have ever owned!

Easter Morning Ride



Brushing Katie before tacking her up. Standing patiently like a good little girl!


Picking out her hooves. Katie wondering what I am doing...or if I may have any treats!!!


Got the saddle on. Now putting on the bridle and then mounting up!



Thanks to my Mom for taking such wonderful pictures!

First Time Riding at Home


Riding Katie at home a couple days after I got her home.



Testing out my new Kincade English saddle.



I didn't end up liking the Kincade saddle so I returned it and bought a Wintec 500. I like it WAY better! Before I got the Wintec though I had to ride in my old western saddle!!!
