We had a good day at the Oklahoma Arabian Horse Club (OAHC) Fun Show yesterday. In her semi-retired state, Jen returned to the show ring to continue brushing up on her halter & showmanship skills. She was second in showmanship and fourth in halter. We gave under saddle classes one more shot, but ultimately, she still very much has a jumper mentality, so she will be sticking to in-hand classes at shows. We really do miss the jumper ring. 😅🥹 It was nice to get back in the ring with my girl and continue our journey. I’m so fortunate to still have her by my side at 21 years old. We love you, JenJen! ❤️✨

I started this project months ago. I cut & stained all of the wood, bought the hardware, and then show season started. 😅 but hey, better late than never! I finally finished building my portable saddle rack for shows. Just a few minor tweaks and it’ll be perfect. 🥳

I haven’t sat on Tweety since probably before nationals. We’ve been working on ground work here and there, adjusting supplements, and taking time off to figure out what life’s all about. Yesterday, I finally decided to sit on her and I couldn’t be more proud of how well she walked. Walking has been the absolute hardest thing in the world, obviously, 😂. Must. Trot. Must go fast. To have her chill out and mostly focus on what was happening in the arena rather than out of it, was lovely. She was excellent and this ride finally gave me some confidence that we can continue to make positive, forward progress. Proud of my T-Birdie. ❤️✨
