WOW!! I didn't realize I had not posted since February...gosh I'm behind. Well, just about all I can say is I can't believe 2015 is almost over. This has been an incredible year. I set out with a goal of making the SPRA finals on another horse besides Peaches. That goal was accomplished with AHH Mazing and Perks N Firewater. I had a blast hauling many many miles to around 30 WPRA/PRCA rodeos. I learned a lot about my horses and myself. The rodeo road is full of ups and downs but also so full of memories. A few memories that stick out in 2015 are placing at several pro rodeos on 2 different horses, winning a few NBHA shows on different horses, placing 2nd at my hometown rodeo, watching Gage show a full year of horse shows and trying new events, and selling 5 horses in the month of August!!! I think that is a personal best for me.
10-31-15 October is my favorite month.....I think because the weather is finally cooling off, fair rodeos, Gage's birthday and our anniversary month. Last weekend Perks N Firewater and I placed 9th in Shreveport, LA. This is a rodeo that I have always wanted to place at. I was in Friday night performance and boy did it decide to rain!! This 6 year old mare handled the rain, goats & sheep, and very little warm up (on asphalt) very well....well enough for a check. We are off Halloween weekend and are doing non-horse related activities for the first time in a long time. Gage is very excited about his Halloween costume he is learned 2 new events in preparation for ALBRA rodeos.
I have the Lord to thank for every day that I am able to do what I love for a living!! Its not all glitz and glamour but I am truly blessed.
