We always have a very busy 4th of July, but this year we added to our craziness. The girls have wanted to "ride" in the parade for a few years, and this year they were asked to carry a flag. So we washed and prettied our ponies, sewed a trick rider outfit (the one standing on her pony), and added some bling to the girls' hair for the parade. Later that week, the "trick rider" also got a few pointers for a real trick rider. The suicide drag is now her favorite trick, but Boss is not quite sure about it. She will continue to entertain all our friends and neighbors at home with her trick riding.
She goes from trick ponies to sheep. Halfpint won the 8 year old Muttin Bustin and received this big ol' trophy. We are very proud of her accomplishments last week. I am sure a humbling experience is just around the corner.
Where the sun rises from the east, smiles are plentiful, and we share laughter and love.
