Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | Last week at a show, a photographer captured this image of my daughter and it is my new all time favorite picture. I just love watching these two develop into a team. He was suppose to be my "come back" horse but my daughter fell in love with him. He is a lot of horse however he is teaching her a lot .....and mean while mom is stuck riding her old pony. I wouldn't trade it for anything though.

Thanks Herbie. It has been a long road. In the beginning there was a lot of soundness and ring/gate issues we had to work through, not to mention I had lost my nerve. To say the least I was devastated. Then one day, out of the blue, she asked to ride him and they have never looked back. |

Trying to sell the pony so I have money towards another.... Her and a good friend (that also took over her mom's horse) made shirts that say "I stole my mom's horse."" They wear them to the show together. To be young again |

Don't feel bad about riding a pony........out of 15 horses, my ride this year is a 13H Welsh that we bred/raised. I was a little embarrassed at first, but hey, somebody has to train these ponies. I'm the only senior rider on a pony, so I'm "special". |

Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | Thanks everyone for the kind comments. She is 13 and this is her second summer running him. After the horse and I had a rough start, I would have never of imagined my daughter would be riding him. Heck, I even offered him to another family...so glad now they said "No." He can be a lot of horse but we have been so blessed to have two teenage sister REALLY step up and help my daughter with her confidence and riding skills. |

Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | My daughter and her friend did up these shirts for costume class at horse camp. They then "roped" myself and my friend and "pulled" us along behind them, while we yelled that we wanted our horses back. It went over great with the crowd and won them first place in their division. Now they wear them to our local show series. They love to rub it in how much better they are doing with "mom's" horse.
