Ok so I put the pics in the Smile board. It went alright. THis was a bigger show so they didn't have the classes on both days like they usually do, they only had each class once. So on the first day I had the youth 14-18 and got first place with a score of 138.5 (69 and 69.5, theres 2 judges). Today I got a 140.5 (70 and 70.5). I tied for 3rd with 2 other people in the Ltd. Non Pro and tied for 5th in the Open Non Pro. All in all, Shadow was good for what she is, but I came to the sad realization that she is pretty darn sucky.

I remember more I wanted to say, I thaught it was kinda short. Well, it was absolutly freezing! I wish I braught a jacket. It was 9 degrees C which is 48degrees F. I was riding on the lunch break and it was going well. We were fencing and she was doing ok. Then I fenced towards Brian and everyone else who was watching and about 4 strides before I stopped I lost my sturup. I was trying to get her to go straight as she was vearing right then she slide to the fence and I nearly fell off. I had my knee pressing against the saddle horn trying not to fall. That deffinatly would have been embarassing.

LOL well im glad you didnt fall off.
but hay you still did really well at the show it sounds like and the main thing that matters is that you had fun.
if your not having fun when you show then why do it? thats what my dad always tells me when im bumed out about a show or I get nervious.

Connnnnngratulations!!! Are you going to have to sell Shadow and get a better horse so you can go into better competitions? Or are you still going to keep Shadow?

I'm keeping her. I'd love a better horse but I'd need about $30,000. And I really love her. IDK, I'm really attached to her but at the same time riding has become such a chore. I'll do something else with her unless theres reining competition down there. Then I'll be able to go in the lower classes again I think.
