PLAYDAY

Today was our November play day after church. The events were barrels, pony express race, ribbon roping and obstacle course. It was a beautiful day and as always we had a blast!! I rode "Angel" for my points and took "Willis" my winter project to just get exposure. He is 3 1/2, he did great! As always, I am proud of my mare. She just rocks! We took 1st place in the barrels, pony express, obstacle course. And 2nd place in the ribbon roping.

You are just amazing! Love the shots.
You and Buttercup are invited to join the Pony Cousins at our "Hypothetical Stampede" and the 2 of you are featured on our "Trail Ride" of the day.
You and your pony have a lot of work ahead of you. You need to gather up everything that you and your favorite pony
are going to need for this ride with the Pony Cousins.
Come on over to the Middle of the Road! We'll leave the light on for ya!
