"Oh, we go where nobody knows, we've guns hidden under our petticoats
We're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no
Yeah, we're dressed in black from head to toe,
We've got guns hidden under our petticoats.
No, we're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no"
-Chocolate- The 1975
Gosh, its been a month since my last blog. I apologize for not updating immediately after Rocking Horse III. I guess with packing up, going home, and getting back into the swing of things it slipped my mind.
Well, I went PRELIM!! Whoop whoop!! (enter happy dance).
Anyway.....it was awesome! Mystic was absolutely amazing. I couldn't have been happier. She was great for dressage, we had a 36.5 which was just phenomenal for our first prelim. We had a near textbook round, but pulled one rail because I asked for a long one and she shut me down and chipped in. Which, given prelim height, was probably a good thing. Cross country was so much fun, but missing your distance to a prelim table is terrifying. We went clear as far as jumping goes, but we had 9.2 penalties in time. Not too shabby for our first time out :) here is our run! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXQRPeDZofM
These past couple of weeks have been spent working on fitness, so we can do prelim with the same beastliness we had a training. It is going quite well!
It's been great to be home. I've seen a bunch of my friends and have just been getting back into the swing of things. Princey missed his big sister and was happy when she came home a couple days after we both made it back to the Lone Star State. I've spent the last two weeks gutting my barn and cleaning it up because no one had really been in it for two months! I got home and almost cried because it was so gross. But it's pretty again!
The plan for the next couple of shows is TX Rose:prelim, Holly Hill:prelim, Greenwood: 1*, Chatt Hills:1*, and then the mandatory outing at TX Rose in June. Lets hope and pray everything goes well! I truly promise to remember to post! Thank you all for your love and support! :)
