Whipple Creek Wednesday

Well Im home on spring break now, and I had to leave Gypsy behind! Sad day, I miss her! But she could probably use a little break, and I've got a friend keeping good care of her. In the meantime, I went trail riding with one of my best buds today! Took her two morgans out, and boy was that trail insane! I was riding the ex-park show horse, and my friend was on the baby lol. But all went well....after going down STEEP steep hills, and back up them, and crossing a few bridges, and navigating some squishy mud! It was great fun, Its been way too long since I've gone on a fun trail ride. So that was fabulous. In the picture, the left horse is mine, and the right is hers.

This horse is her little baby in training- she did great! Crossed the scary bridge and walked nice and calm. The horse I rode is in the background back there...

In other news again... Haha, well I just have some random photos to share, actually. Last...Saterday it was, I went with the lady I work for to get a couple of her horse's teeth floated at the vets. I went to help out and such. And so the mare we work with in training class was there, and she got done last. The vet cleared her to load in the trailer and leave. We got her in, and she proceeded to almost fall asleep! She had her eyes closed and was leaning all her head's weight on the trailer tie! It was hilarious! :)

I was rather amused....

And last but not least, I went to the wonderfully fabulous Canby tack sale over the weekend, and bought things I don't really need...and stuff I actually did need! Success! I bought Gypsy a riser pad that is the full length of the saddle, instead of the ghetto cantle one I was using. Lets see....also got her a new bit (a D snaffle with copper rollies in it!), some polos, and the rest slips my mind. Also ended up with a saddle, which is great, since I've been borrowing someone elses saddle for months, since my old one was ruined. This one actually fits her and looks nice, and is mine! Yay! And the polos...hehe, are purple and pink. I am slowly turning my horse into a pastel easter egg! A blue/purple blanket, a purple/green/pink stable sheet, a purple halter, and now pastel polos too?!?! Ha, but its so adorable. Now I just want to buy her a dark purple saddle pad, and my evil plan will be complete..


But come on? How can you resist this cuteness??
I love watching her trot in these polos...hehehe
Oh and this is her new saddle too.

My friend is holding her for me, and making her all pretty :)
