idk






IDK what to say! I know it's been a while but we have been busy.
I did find out that Quarter Horses and Paint Horses are awesome! With the right training and breeding that can do so many things! That can do: barrel racing, pole bending, roping, versatilty ranch work, cutting, working cows, reining, trail, team penning, western pleasure, english pleasure, dressage, eventing, show jumping, hunter(jumper), halter and more(im sure)!! Oh, I am not sure if they still do it, but some of them raced in Quarter Horse races. And they are sooooo pretty!!! You people really need to read about them! Oh, and they come in alot of cool colors!

fun day

Okay well, it's still the day before the show and Cassie is at Mrs. Corrie's. Me and a girl named Ellie(well, Elizabeth) rode in a little bit of rain. We jumped a cross rail that was about 18", and another jump that was a vertical that was close to 2'. After that we awshed the horses and fed them and there you go! Oh we put all of our tack(saddles, bridles, ect)in the trailer. Now I am about to eat and take a shower and(I guess) go to bed..
Oh well. I'll try to post tomorrow!

It's tomorrow!!!

The show is tomorrow!!! I have a riding lesson today then Cassie is going to spend the night at my riding instructor's barn because she is taking her to the show and we have to be there really early.

Camping

Last night me and my friend Kimberly slept in one of our tents...it was fun..and a long story. Well after we got the tent put up and all of our stuff put in it we got Lady and got in the tent... well, we have two Calico cats, Missy and Maisy. Once we were in the tent I was reading and Kimberly was playing my nintendo DS all of a sudden Missy jumps on the side of the tent!!!!! I think we screamed and jumped! Later Maisy started to paw at us from the outside of the tent.. even later, Kimberly started to sneeze and stuff so she moved to the other end of her bed and the cats started to attack her head from the OUTSIDE OF THE TENT!!! I sooo wish I could have taken pictures... Oh well, maybe next time!

Songs I know:
Your Love oh Lord
Let Her Cry
Heart of Worship
You Are My Strengh
Fire Fall Down
For the Moments I Feel Faint
I Could Sing of Your Love Forever
Unashamed Love (favorite)
and i am learning You Alone
Brown Eyed Girl

I have a great teacher! AND I wrote a song.. the 2nd one might be on the way.



I have also been riding Cassie this summer. You know, had some lessons and so on.. had some fun.. lol not too much to say about that. But no, I am NOT getting tiried of Cassie or riding!


Now I have to make up my mine about somthing.. It's a horse show or a middle school retreat....
The show has a class called a costume class and that is where you AND your horse dress up!
And this would be my last year for Freedom Weekend (the retreat) because I will be in 9th grade next year!!! High school! :p

bye bye bunny



Today i gave my rabbit, Sampson, away...to a good home. I think she said she/they have like 5 indoor cats and maybe 3 dogs.. wow..! I almost cried but I know he needed a new home. I mean, I was going to have to give him away sometime anyway. Like if we were to move to the loft we all really liked there would not be a yard or a porch/deck to put him on.. a rabbit INSIDE would be stinky! But another good thing is she said we could visit Sampson anytime.

Funny stuff

Last night in my devotion book there was some very funny stuff but you have to be in the right mood to think it's funny.

"The following announcements were found in church bulletins."

- Miss Charlene Mason sang "I Will Not Pass This Way Again," giving much pleasure to the congregation.

- Ladies, don't forget the rummage sale. It's a chance to get rid of those things not worth keeping around the house. Don't forget your husbands.

- The sermon this morning: "Jesus Walks on the Water."

- The sermon tonight: "Searching for Jesus."

- For those of you who have children and don't know it, we have a nersery downstairs.

- Potluck supper Sunday at 5 p.m. Prayer and medication to follow.

"Isn't it interesting how missplaced or missing punctuation, spelling errors, or a simple rewording of a sentence can change the entire meaning?....."

How I get Angie (my old horse)

I think it was novenber 10th 2005 when I was at my grandparents house with my mom and my brothers. I woke up on the last day we were staying there and my grandfather asked if I wanted to go look at horses, and I said yes. So me, my mom, my grandfather, and my uncle loaded up and left. Well we went to one place and she did not have any horses for sale, but she told us of a place where that had and older Thoroughbred mare for sale and gave us the number, so we called and set up a time to go see her. While we were waiting for the time to go by, we went to look at another horse, but the owners were not home so we left. About an hour later we headed over to see the Thoroughbred mare. When we got there they got her out and the girl who owned her hopped on her (bareback with a halter). She was 200-300 pounds under weight! And she was not the prettiest horse in the world, just I had to save her! So I rode her (bareback with a halter). I liked her (and had to save her)......so we get her, and paied $600.00 for her and a little western saddle. She was really mine. I cried. Not because I was sad, but because she was mine. I really had my own horse. I had wanted one for a long time, and I finally had one.
I did not get her because she was the best riding horse, or because she was the prettiest horse, but because I had to save her.

Angie's Best 17yr (in 05. she will be 20 this yr)
Thoroughbred mare 16.1 hh

I gave Angie away January 22nd 2008. (my b-day)

My Bunny!





This is Sampson, Pumpkin or Thumper (I cannot decide on one) my new Netherland Dwarf. He should only get to be about 2-4 pounds. Which is great because I don't want him to get really big.

Here is my new horse, Cassie! She is a 10 yr. old chestnut colored paint, a very sweet girl! It is really cool to see how God worked this out and in the process grew my faith! Thank you God!!
