Sunday morning Dave met Breezy for the 1st time. They seemed to hit it off, I think. Here are some pics of the historic event.
I would like it to be noted that the following 2 pics were the first taken of the pair:
(1st Dave's eyes are closed)
(Then Breezy's eye are closed)
Dave maintains that it was a planned prank that the two conjured up together.

Saturday Ride
Here are some pics from my ride on Saturday. I am really liking Breezy so far. He has a gigantic stop on him. It feels like we are sliding for miles! We just need to get him to relax and wait for me in the run downs. My mom videoed my lesson so we might be able to get some stoppinig pictures from that. I will defiantely post them if we do.

Well, I Did It
I purchased the horse I tried in Scottsdale a couple weeks ago. He arrived just yesterday. I am so excited! I have been waiting to get another horse for 6 years and waiting my whole life for a horse of this caliber. For those who don't know, I stated riding at the age of 2 and showed heavily until around 1999 when I decided I had to concentrate on my education and obtaining a career outside of the horse industry. However, my passion for riding and showing horses has not at all diminished in that hiatus from horses. I just can't wait to get back in the show pen. I know that there is a lot work to be done to be competitive again and Breezy, my new horse, is far from perfect (and so am I for that matter), but I feel so blessed to be given this amazing opportunity to live out my dream.
Here are a few pics of Breezy taken the day he arrived (yes, he is wet in the pics...I had just hosed him off 'cause it was really hot that day):
Isn't he so cute?!?!?

Scottsdale
We had a very quick but enjoyable trip to Scottsdale, AZ this past weekend.
We left Friday at around 2:30pm and arrived at Uncle Scott's home at around 9:00pm. We ended up hitting quite a lot of traffic. But, we were so excited to see Uncle Scott when we are arrived and instantly felt like it was worth the drive. I was super exhausted from a long week so we hit the sack by 10pm.
Saturday morning I got up early and spend some time hanging out with Uncle Scott and then I headed out to try out some horses. I had such a great time! In fact, I may have found my horse...
Here is a pic of the horse I am considering purchasing
Here is a pic of the same horse in a magazine that I had at home
After I finished ridding I went back to Uncle Scott's to get cleaned up. Uncle Scott and Dave had been looking at investment properties in the area. They came home and picked me up and we headed out to look at some model homes, used homes and even some land. Then we went to dinner at the club house in the community he lives in.
We left Sunday morning around 9:30am and arrived back in The OC by 4pm. Just in time to shower and get to church by 5pm to set up and serve.
Now I just have a very stressful decision to make....

Good News, Bad News
So the good news is that my mom finally decided on a name for her horse, Miss Lark. However, the bad news is that it isn't her horse anymore. Turns out that Miss Lark isn't as friendly and sweet when you are trying to ride her. So the person she bought her from is going to take her back. Bummer.
