horse happenings in november...

Our horsey happening in November...
Bella has learnt to put her front two feet on the pedestal...
We have been up to visit Boy...who is being started under saddle by Mike...a fabulous natural horseman...

 Evangeline got to have a sit on him!

 He is so gorgeous!
 And he is going fabulously...


On our next visit he was progressing well! And being ridden out of the round yard!

 And I was very excited to have my first ride on him..I hadn't been expecting it! So I wasn't appropriately attired!
 He was perfect...stood patiently to be mounted, moved around calmly and was just lovely!
 


 
And Chief will now go and stand on the pedestal at liberty...that is with no halter and lead....

 Evangeline has been to riding lessons...on Bubbles...

And Trumby got some TLC..
My red string and certificate arrived from Parelli...for passing my level one...I have at the same time passed my level two online (horse on lead) and have only to pass my level two freestyle (riding) to then pass my level two ..so that is the plan for the next few months...once Boy is back home...Lissy

horsing around in october...

Lots happening with the horses in October...
Boy turned 3...and is learning heaps!


Evangeline has been playing with Trumby...

and is getting very clever with both ponies...have a look at this...
I took Boy up to the Hills Natural Horsemanship Club...always a great day...
Boy and Will (Martine's horse) were so knackered by lunchtime that they had a little nap during the after lunch demonstrations...it was so funny...Boy was laying down for about 5 mins...even when the other horses all went of to start working!

Chief and I filmed our level one online audition for Parelli and passed our level two...so that was pretty amazing! I am very pleased with how Chief is going! If you want to see what we do go here...and see the video...


And Boy went off to Mike's to be started under saddle...

Chief and Trumby saw him off...Bella kept eating!!

We went up to visit him...
Mike says he is going fabulously and is above average! He is going to be a super horseLearning to bow and then lie down!
And be mounted...
And get used to moving with all the gear on....
He will be Evangeline's one day and I think they will get along great!
Evangeline joined in...
We will go and see him again soon!
The ponies had a bath...
Trumby rolled while tied up...have no idea how....
so he was bathed again and tied up on the pavement!
Pip has started coming over to help me with the horses...she is a very experienced horsewoman and also does Parelli so perfect! She has moved out from the UK for a few years and is missing her horses!
And I think that is about it! Lissy
