New Toy





This is Hope. She is a nice little pony mare that will hopefully make it in the hunter ring. I have been working her for a few months now and I have 2 advanced riders that are riding her almost daily. She is coming along GREAT!

I have been riding Desi some but it hasn't been consistant. I am going to try to start riding HER at LEAST 3 days a week. Its sad that my personal horses get pushed to the back.

Let me know what you think about Hope. I will have to start advertising her soon......

This past weekend I put a VERY expensive saddle on layaway and will now have to sell my soul to get it paid off. LOL

Blogger and I are NOT getting along. Here is the link to the rest of Hope's pictures.

She's a cute little mare. She looks like she's sleeping over the vertical which is probably exactly what nervous parents want in their kid's pony.

She's adorable. I'm glad to hear that she's coming along well!

Andrea, nothing really bothers her. Even new complicated gymnasitcs don't seem to faze her. I hope to get better jumping pictures of her this evening. I will post them if I do.

I forgot to mention. This little mare is only 5yrs old.

Andrea said...

Wow, if she's that quiet at 5 then she's going to make an amazing children's hunter. :)

Hope seems like a good girl! Especially for only being 5!

I hope you are able to get some more ride time for your Desi. What kind of saddle did you lay away?

Christie, I put a Wade on layaway.
