Wedding and More Rides

This weekend was my girl Jenny's wedding. Okay, so in all honesty, I was worried. But let me tell you, the day was amazing. Beautiful bridesmaids, beautiful roses, beautiful cars, and a beautiful bride. Plus, best DJ and congo line EVER! There was a photo booth and awesome white wine (says the non-wine drinker). It was a wonderful day... And I didn't fall down.









I didn't get to ride Sunday or Monday... But Monday night Mr. Brantley did get new kicks! YIPPEEE! Best farrier in the world we have. He put some platforms on my boy until he gets a bit more foot growth. No one else seems to see it but I see a little more weight coming on him. Yay!


I rode Tuesday, a little nervous with him having two days off but he was great. WOOHHOOOOO!

We're just starting to work on going straight and tipping his nose a bit more. He doesn't like to spend a hell of a lot trotting, he picks up the canter like a champ and just goes and goes and goes... Not that I'm complaining. Need more videos! Check out our YouTube!

Today before work I brought Chevy home after feeding then headed back to ride. I tacked up B and headed to the indoor only to hear a familiar voice with an accent. Wish I had known Niall was going to be in the ring! He invited me in to ride during L's lesson but I had never ridden with them before and I needed to go through my routine... I watched her lesson and as she was cooling down I said F it and got on... No warm up off line... No stirrup driving... Just a quick mount on the off side and then on I went. Walked around the arena, B a little curious of Rajah, and then down came C and Dustin from the main barn... Two horses? We walk, trot, cantered during L's cool down and C's warm up with no issues. Even with a bit of a traffic jam at one time, I slid my hand down, pointed his nose, and across the arena we went, no problem. We received some nice compliments when I dismounted. It felt great... Definitely needed a pick me up after the last week. Can't wait for CB's call so I can go on and on about how awesome Brantley is... Wether he goes straight or not.
