Speed Fun!






Yep, its been a while since I last posted on here...again.  As, many of you know, we keep busy, and maybe too busy at times but we have also had a lot of trouble with our Internet service this year so I haven't had the patience to try and  post things especially when I have a couple times, the computer freezes halfway through or completely boots me off but I think things are working better-here's hopin!!
Jessie and I have had a very busy and fun year so far with her competing in the Nevada bandits club in Elko and she has competed in one Junior rodeo to which she has now decided that she needs to learn how to tie goats and rope cattle!!!
   She has one more show at the end of October.  After her first 3 shows she was placed in a division so that she can compete against those with similar times and then collect points for year end awards-she far she has been high point at the last 2 shows!! 
  Nina was my first horse and has proven to be a good all around type horse but seems to have a knack for barrels, poles, etc.....She's not a 'spring chicken' anymore but at 18 she is showing that she definitely has some get-up and go and really seems to enjoy it.

   Jessie had had a lot of fun getting herself and Nina all 'dolled' for the shows-can't blame her  :)


  This was just a week ago the morning of her first Junior rodeo-have to have the hat for rodeo's-its the rules. My hat looks good on her though, kinda like my horse looks good under her  ;)

   The best part about the Nevada Bandit Club are the people that you get to hang out with and the very relaxed, fun atmosphere!
 In between events, Nina gets to be the babysitter.
 She's getting faster all the time

Nina's favorite part of the day is at the end-she's spoiled, but its a good kind.
