It was such a good day!

[SlitherinSisters]

Well to start the day on Wednesday I broke my first horse ever! I was SOOO excited! Then I got home to check the snakes and found this!!!

My first lock EVER!



Here's my little stud muffin. He was in a BAD mood when I took him out, but it was perfect for a good picture for my site.



And here's the filly I broke. She's a bit under 2 years old, but since she's such a big girl the trainer wants to start her Monday. I wanted to break her so I had to bypass a lot of work that I would have liked to have done first. But, luckily the work I had put into her was enough to gain her trust and give her confidence. I hopped on and she gave me almost no troubles.



I have a video of me getting on and riding but my internet has been really spotty My 14 year old sister hopped on 10 minutes after I got on. She's going to be an awesome horse. For those wondering, she's a Quarter Horse and her color is Buckskin. She's going for basic training and will be going back for some training in barrel racing.

And yes that coat was from the early 90s it's my farm coat! It was 5 degrees (F) that morning and it's a Columbia so I was nice and warm. I also have an orange hunting vest that goes over that coat because hunters go through OUR pasture, but unfortunately I didn't have it on for this picture

How could you tell?! I can't believe that coat was "cool" back then. At least that's what my dad tells me, it was HIS! After being drug through a few barbed wire fences and losing a lot of jeans I'm not about to wear my pretty pink and brown Columbia out there!!!

Congrats on your first lock.

I know the feeling last year was my first breeding season. Good luck with the rest of the season.

Congrats on your first lock and breaking the filly! My best friend just bought a filly and they're beginning to do ground work with her, but haven't gotten on her yet.

I finally got the video uploaded!!! But only to facebook. You'll have to tell me if you can watch it from this link. It's pretty short because I kept cutting it so it would upload for me, but it's still about 1 minute. http://www.facebook.com/video/video....52807889&saved

Thank you! It was an awesome day. I've never been the first person on horse so I was pretty excited! I was a bit scared though!
