Riding Club, Cedar Fort Play Day and EHV-1

Peyton has been riding so well. I think everytime she gets on Rummy the more confident and daring she is. Rummy has been feeling really good too. I think it helps getting rode as often as he has lately. Her club has started timing for the events and she has done awesome! She had the fastest time in the Barrels, Poles and Stake Race and she had the 2nd fastest time in the Keyhole and 4th fastest in the Flag Race all in the 6-8 year old age group. Just a reminder, she is only 6 and this is her 1st year in riding club. I think she is doing awesome and she makes us proud! She has made the A team in all 5 and just has Speed Barrels left to time for.

Before the EHV-1 outbreak, we were able to take Peyton to the first show of the Cedar Fort Play Day series on Saturday, May 14th. Surprisingly, there were not a lot of kids in the 8 and under age group so they combined her age group with the lead line, green rider and green horse groups. She did so well winning the Barrels and Keyhole and took 2nd in both the Poles and Musical Squares.






We had plans to take her to the Silver Spurs Jackpot and the District 3 Kids Show this past weekend but they both got cancelled due to the virus outbreak. Hopefully they will both be rescheduled soon and this will soon pass over. Us and our horses are getting bored. We are not used to being home so much in the Spring. At least it has given us time to work on our barn.
