My boy missed me

So I had my wisdom teeth out last Friday and the last day I got to ride Vin was Tuesday. We allow Vinnie to be used in the lesson program at our barn for a price reduction in boarding and when I went to the barn last night, the riding instructor Anna was there. She said that Vinnie was a real jerk on Friday. He bucked when one of the girls asked him to canter (which he never does!) and was being a general pain in the butt. We are used to him being stubborn, but not like that. She had choked it up to the horses not being able to get out in the pasture because of the crappy weather we have had lately. So I was interested to see how he would act when I rode him last night.

Little butt-head was a dream to ride! We worked on bending to the left and he was attentive the entire time. We worked on an even consistent canter and canter transitions and it was wonderful. We had a really fun time! So I came to a conclusion: I think he missed me!

The Barn and New Vinnie Pics

We took some new pics of Vinnie with my new camera and some pictures of some of the other horses as well.

This is Ace. He is a Tennessee Walker and a big baby. I call him Bubba because his bottom lip is huge and hangs open all the time!
This is Leah, one of the girls who boards at the barn.
Lex is the only Mini at the barn. He belongs to Larry's mom. He is super fuzzy and cute in the winter:)
Vinnie in his stall. The dark horse behind him is Chewey.My two boys!

He is ours!!!

We bought Savy today!! The boy is a dream to ride. We have some ground work to do but he will come around, he just hasn't been worked with in a while. I am so excited and happy! I cannot wait to bring him home. He is not up-to-date on all his shots so we have to have him get a coggins and rabies shot - it will probably be able a week or two before we can get him to Prarie Star. I CAN"T WAIT!!
