Monday I hacked. The pannels were removed from the half wall on the open end of the arena- Henry knew something was different but I reminded him that I was in control and after a few (hundred) times by it he was over it lol. I worked on lots of transitions and smooth smooth smooth!

| Henry grabbed the whip when we went into lunge and proceeded to avoid me as i tried to get it back from him- crazy horse! |
Tuesday was lesson night. Got Henry, groomed, lunged and got on. Honestly I don't remember much other then my eye sucked in jumping- no bueno!
Wednesday I had another lesson since my trainer will be gone Thur- Sun. We used the same course and added in fence 5. Henry and I were WAY better and even worked on some lead changes on the straight line - SO hard!

| Henry is excited for the lesson! |

| New boots! :) |
My eye was better and he jumped great! He and I were both super sweaty so I took a long walk around the property to cool him out. Then gave him a bath :) LOVE a clean horse!!!
Also I got a new coat and keep forgetting to show it to you all! Got a great deal on it and it seems to be a nice coat :)

Henry also got his 'toes did' Wednesday night.
Turned out today, hack Friday and prob lunge Saturday since I have B and hubby won't be home till the evening.
Ooooh! #5 the crazyyy rainbow! Those boxes stacked in front of one another looked scary! Way to go!!!!
ReplyDeleteYep gotta love the rainbow... shoot those dang boxes just cause me issues. I think they need a top rail to help me get it lol
DeleteLove the pinstripe in that coat. Your barn is so pretty too.
ReplyDeleteaw thanks!!! :) Move to Ca!
DeleteWhere did you end up getting your new boots? I don't remember if I saw your answer of instagram. Love the new coat, very understated but different at the same time :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love it for sure and my old navy coat is like 15 years old lol!
DeleteI got them at Dover cause you can get the whole set and it's the best deal i found :)
Fab photos, have to giggle at Henry 'running' away with the lunge whip - horses, eh? ;-)
ReplyDeleteFab pinstripe coat (LOVE) & lovely new boots. I have Eskadron's for Miss K as well, probably should get her a new pair actually as the ones she has are starting to wear thin I've had them so long!
Also I really like the navy saddle pad on Henry - really striking!
Yeah he was a stinker and it made me laugh how he went right for it and knew that is what I needed!!!
DeleteThe Eskadrons are great and I got a great deal at Dover :)
Love the new coat!!! Wow...rainbow jump sounds scary. Savvy doesn't even like walking by big blue barrels :-P
ReplyDeleteAll of my trainers jumps have some pizazz so when we go to the shows our horses never look at anything :) haha!
DeleteLOVE the coat. I remember trying one of theirs on and loving how light and fitted they are.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of or tried this kind on before but it seems like a nice coat so i am stoked :)
