A spirit that calls our hearts to dream

 

A fun and liberating day!



Today has been a really fun and liberating day. I haven't had any pain in my knee today and I haven't taken painkillers for two days now. I went for a long trip in the woods on Victor with my really good friend on her Irish Cob. Victor is usually pretty slow and calm. But today there was so much speed in him, it was so fun and cute.

He's always easy to control but it's kind of funny when he's "naughty", it's so innocent. He is not in shape to run of with me. So I just let him gallop and about 10 meter further along he snorts and groans as if he is about to die.

We also saw a herd of deers, it's always nice to ride in the woods. All horses should be ridden at least once a week in the nature!

Later I trained Giga on the outdoor arena. She was just so nice! Both horses were just some angels today. They just make my day so much better. What would I do without them?



Lady Giga, Sir Victor & Sir Tonga

Three beautiful Irish Cobs!

Weekend!



My weekend already started yesterday :-D I'm free from school today, it's just really great. Today I'm going out riding with a good friend, she also has a really cute Irish Cob.

Then later I'll ride Giga on the outdoor arena. She needs it. The women who rides her some days in the week is doing a really good job. Giga isn't a easy horse to ride. But it's like Giga is a little signal confused when I come and deal with her. I know a horse can't test people but it almost feels like she does.

Happy Thanksgiving


I hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving. 





Bling enough?


That's what I call BLING!




Improvement with the mud fever!!



I'm just so happy right now. The mud fever is almost all gone.
Unfortunately I had to cut the hair on his hind legs. He was most affected there. And it's very important that the skin can breathe. I know it looks terrible... But it grows out again! I cried a little inside when I cut it :-P










The horse that threw me of!



This is the horse that threw me of Tuesday. His name is Buster and he's actually a sweet enough horse. He's just very nervous. Buster is a former hunting horse and has jumped in some pretty high classes.
I must say there's a long way down when you fall off him. He's 1,86 high. So he's pretty tall compared to my horses that are 1,60 and 1,49 :-P
