rollercoaster

No, we did not go to an amusement park, though it would have been fun. Today we took another cross country lesson, this time moving on, and we have video! I rode Winton and jen rode Ranger, both of whom were wonderful and forgiving and super excited.

We jumped around a little, over barrels, logs and some scary floating logs over seas of stone, scary scary, and then we jumped through the most fun cross country obstacle yet:

the rollercoaster!

and although we make it look super easy, i know i know, the first times were not so pretty. Jen missed her second jump she was kicking so much, and had to be reminded to steer as the same time as kick :)

and the second time i did it, it was flawless. seriously.  though missy didn't catch it on camera... my camera was acting up, or something along those lines. and in the repeat our first spot was wonky.

We also got to jump the stone walls from one field to the other, gallop down the hill, over a little ditch, then up and over a few big logs lashed together and into the water, cantering through, and then up a bank out of the water.

too bad my camera died after the rollercoaster. Missy promised we will do it again though, and this time, we'll take it. show off our amazing water complex skills.

Other exciting news, the chiropractor came and adjusted half the boys, the other half he will do tomorrow. He said they all felt pretty darned good, Hubert and Hunter particularly considering they hunted for 4 1/2 hours yesterday.

oh! and we went out for dinner! crazy, i know. we almost took a picture just to prove we went out and were up past 8 pm.

And that was all the excitement for today. Tomorrow Missy will jump Journey and Springer, tune up the other two boys Jen and I rode today, and, fingers crossed, will be nothing but impressed with how they are going :)

until tomorrow.
