Crys, I always enjoy reading about you & cookie. How a little girl in my arms one night got invited by a young man showing his horse on a lead to just ride around the arena. Four legged wonders & you are meant to be..you hang on to her mane and rode like a pro. Ride’ em girl, RIDE !! I love you, Dad

thanks! u know i’m harder on myself than I need to be. After the jumps I was looking into the camera to see my position and I thought it wasn’t that good. But after I DL-ed the pics, its not bad at all. There’ was only one pic that I’m looking bad on and I know EXACTLY what happened there. I was left behind.

For non-horsey people, to make it simple, ur supposed to go into 2 pt (jump) position at the correct timing of ur horse’s stride into the air (Lauren, is that good wording/explanation?) If ur horse takes off and ur not, ur left behind. If u go into position before they take off, ur jumping ahead of them. People can form a habit with either or. I do both. LOL.
