Let the fun begin

With horse show season fast approaching, we have been busy trying to get ready. JQ has increased Prancer’s workouts. Of course the mud is making finding a place to ride difficult, but they find a way.
We had the vet draw blood for Prancer’s coggins papers. The papers are back and we are ready to roll.
We paid our membership fees for our riding club. We love our horse show family, without them “The Posse” wouldn’t have gotten together. And without “The Posse” (our teenage daughters) the Mucking Moms would have never gotten together. We all live in three different cities, but all belong to the same Arkansas Valley Horse Show Association. We also share three horse crazy girls.
Prancer has 4 new shoes firmly attached to his feet. How long these shoes will last is questionable in all this mud. We are very blessed to have a farrier in the extended family. He has come to JQ and Prancer’s rescue to many times to mention.
This is just a few things we have done to get ready. We still have a long list to do to be ready for that first show!
LOVE watching horse shows! I used to show dogs and did very well but horse showing… that’s cool. My uncle races horses and I go to the races from time to time with him. They’re just so powerful and majestic!
Horse shows coming soon. Beautiful family time also.
You show horses? Very cool! I am just a student at a local barn of mine… What is showing life like? The only shows I participate in are Halloween Play Days, and possibly the summer student shows at my ranch.
