My first horse back riding lesson!

Well let me just say this first I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok so the first thing that i did was get the horse,pretty,ready for riding which is putting Pretty's saddle on,getting some bug repellent on so that she is comfortable while i am riding her,scraping all of the dirt off of her hooves,brushing her,putting on a helmet so that i can be safe, and getting her away from her baby that she just had like a month ago or something. When we were done i got to walk her to the place where i would ride her which was really small but i had to go there so that she could teach me the techniques that you need to know while riding a horse and when i was done riding her for about five minutes it was time to get everything off and go. I know that sounds like 10 minutes but it was actually 1 hour! Boy how time flies when you are having a blast! Well i am very excited for next week when i get to ride her through the big area for riding(i forgot what she called it) well let me just say one more thing the lady that gave me lessons is sister.Mayfield who we converted to the church so we know her and she said that she was shocked when brother.Mayfield let me ride pretty because that's his special horse! He just barely let his wife start riding it but to make sure that you know how special she is mt dad says that that's like him letting me drive his car. That's how special pretty is and i got to ride her!

Thanks for sharing that with us. It sounds like a lot of fun. Does the horse have a brother called "ugly"
