SO Many Pictures!!! (and lots to tell, but that'll have to wait)

I would love to do a full update now about the two lessons in two days that I've had, but I have a term paper hanging over my head. I was supposed to work on it today and instead decided to spend 5 hours at the farm... BAD KATHERINE! Therefore, the rest of this update will have to wait until tomorrow, but as the title suggests, I have a gazillion new and awesome pictures. I spent so much time at the barn because my B.O. wanted to take pictures of us with our horses... she is so sweet and wonderful :) Then Kimmie and I kind of messed around setting jumps, and then came the lessons. I jumped the highest that I've ever jumped (at least intentionally...) and Limmers was fab! The whole lesson was great and S keeps telling me how happy she is that things are finally starting to go right for us, which is so good to hear.

More to come, but here are the pictures!

Kimmie and Jazz looking perfect as always!

Kimmie and Jazz over Liz's ghetto jump



The most round I've ever gotten him at the canter :)

Cool action shot, even if I don't appreciate my heel being even with my toe...




My favorite of the day :) Cute festive jump! 

My leg is too far back, but this is the biggest jump I've ever (intentionally) jumped! S said 2' 3"
The best part was that I didn't even think twice about it or get scared :)

The sunset after my lesson

decidedly not feeling the spirit of Christmas... my horse is a grinch! 

It's ok, he actually loves his life and is trying to hide his enthusiasm for the santa hat

My horse might actually be a reindeer... he certainly knows how to jump like one! 

Boyfriends 

Lims and Jazzers

Limmers wishes you all a happy holiday/merry christmas! 

I am in love with this picture of us... new favorite of all time!

    1. I love it too! It could be the tiniest bit better, but I'm mostly proud that I wasn't scared of it! I'm generally a fan of my horse too... he's been pretty good lately :)

    1. Thank you! He actually refused it the first time because of the sparkly tinsel... which for him means slowly coming to a stop- not a big deal!
