August 30, 2007

Hey everyone. Wow it’s been a while… I haven’t had a whole lot to write about lately we’ve been getting yearlings upfor next season and Dad was in Ruidoso for the MBNA Challenge finals (we ran 2nd and 5th)… This weekend is the All American Futurity… and that is sooo BITTER / SWEET. Of course I enjoy All American weekend and it’s always exciting to see someone win the All American (especially someone who hasn’t won it before)… But, since we’ev won the All American it really sucks to not have anything in it… But, all we can do is keep going. The best part of summer ending is it’s sale time… We have 6 yearlings total so far. A Hope It Happens out of a Treaured Too mare that I own, a Two Timen Fuel out of an Ichibon mare, and we have 4 yearlings we purchased at the TQHA Yearling Sale. Dad will be at the Ruidoso Yearling sale this weekend, the Eclipse Sale the following weekend, and then the Heritage sale the weekend of my Birthday. Each year we get to start over, pick new yearlings, and hope for the best… I am just excited because I own a few this year that I think are really nice…

Now, enough of the race horses… Let’s talk BARREL HORSES… Mordis and I have made some local rodeos and he is doing great. I haven’t been pushing him very hard and he is nailing his first barrel. I am going to start pushing him harder to the 1st now. – Tara
