| Scott and I spent some of our Saturday working with baby horses! The littlest one is Sassy. The bigger one is Ginger. This is for my animal handling class. We are working with these horses so they can start learning basic skills like being saddled, getting into a horse trailer, and getting groomed. Ginger is always very jumpy and Sassy is really stubborn. They are so fun to work with though! I love horses! |

| This is my Horse for Basic Horsemanship 1. His name is Jake. I am pretty sure he is the tallest horse in the class. I have had a blast riding him for this semester block. I am hoping to get into the next semester block. I will probably get assigned a new horse though sadly. I will miss Jake very much! But I can always visit him! :) |

| This is my assigned horse for the semester. Her name is Paloma. My first time riding her was pretty intense for me. Riding horses is still a little intimidating for me. Paloma is the dominant female in the group of horses. Because of this she likes to run up to the front of every other horse. She doesn't like to stop either. Paloma is a gated horse. The class always jokes that my horse rides like a Mercedes. On my first ride she actually tripped when I was on her. Her front legs went down, but then quickly popped back up. It definitely made my heart jump. I hope to get confident and comfortable when riding. So far I love it! |
