We just got back from another horse show and had a great weekend. I love going and having fun and laughing with all our horse show friends. Tyreed got into a huge water fight, with the girls of course, and just had a blast. Tyreed showed his mare for the first time and won his first class. He won a beautiful print by a local artist that we love. Mayson had a good weekend, lots of trials, but when we reviewed on the way home, she realized what a good weekend she had. She was Grand and Reserve Champion Mare and earned 6 points. Her and Annie had earned their Youth ROM at the last show and Annie and I completed our Amateur ROM at this show and are only one half a point away from her Open ROM. We are having trouble with her being a 'mare' so I'm going to look into what I can do to make it better. Sand had a great show completing his Open ROM and winning all his classes but one. He earned a point in cutting, which just thrilled him. He also earned his highest reining scores ever with a 73.5, 75.5 and a 76. Even though the scores aren't 'real' because they aren't NRHA it's still pretty exciting. For those that don't know, a ROM is 10 points in a group of events. It's not always an easy feat to accomplish because you have to have a lot of horses in a class and win it to earn the points. I think Mayson and I will be going to one more show, but haven't made up our mind. The kids are excited about school and Mayson starts violin lessons again this week. Summer is over and I am sad to see the kids go, but excited to see them grow. We love and miss you all!
