1st Horse Show of the Season!!!

Taylor warming up on Doc, not too sure what she is looking at but she is in her own little world
Taylor came 3rd, I think this was for her western pleasure class, she was sooo excited!
Taylor was actually in the ring waiting for her time to ride, she was singing and just being Taylor. She got 1st place in Western Equitation, very excited
Here is Rachel coming out of her last class of the day. She was sooo excited, she got 1st place in Western Equitation.
IIn between their classes, meeting at the trailer.
Here is Jack riding Bubba, he loves riding! He screamed when we had to take him off. He thinks that he is way too cool.
Just prior to taking him off Bubba
Taylor and Rachel warming up with their friends Stephanie and Logan who are also in their 4H club. Taylor was in the same classes as them and Rachel was in another class. The coordinator separated them so they didn't have to compete with each other. I thought that was great!
Just after their english classes. They were very excited about finishing so well. Their horses worked very well for the both of them.

Here is Rachel and Bubba coming out of their english pleasure class. She got 2nd!
Very proud of her ribbon.
Here is Chelsea on Dodger, this was her english equitation class. Her horse is amazing, he worked very well with her.
Taylor on Doc waiting patiently for her class to start
Daddy and Jack, Jack is not fun to take to a horse show. There was an annoucement to please stop children from running upstairs in the loft (the viewing area ), That wasn't Jack? Was it?

What do you think? We chased him around everywhere. He would not go to sleep.

Taylor in the warm up ring, what a cutie!
Here is Rachel on Bubba in the warm up ring, I just love seeing her in her little english outfit.
Chelsea and Doger, 1st place in English Equitation

Rachel and Troy waiting to go into her showmanship class. Bubba was very bad. He wouldn't stand for her, so she didn't even place. But she was okay with that...
Taylor coming out of her showmanship class, she got 5th place with Doc!~
Rachel and Bubba just before her showmanship, as you can see she was very happy.
In her showmanship class. Bubba is not a halter horse, he hates this class. He works better in the ridden classes
I love this picture of Rachel.

We had a great day, it was Rachel and Taylors first 4H show. Their next big show is in the city at 4H on parade. They are very excited for that show. Chelsea will not be showing her horse, she will be showing her steer and her heifer.
