My son took these photos……..

…..of me at my first National Reining Horse Association horse show!

That’s me with my “rental” horse, Molly Melody in front of a packed house ( ha!)

I got a score of “0”. Of course, that’s the worst you can get. But I actually was pretty pleased because I did a decent job through the entire pattern until the very end when I thought I was finished and backed up a few steps. Who knew you couldn’t do that? Certainly not me- as I neglected to read the rule book. Oh well.

Here’s another photo of Molly and me ( courtesy of my wonderful son who patiently endured the two-day horse show in Bowling Green.)

She’s so cute, isnt’ she?:) And you should see her spin and slide- she’s a pro!

I had a great time with my trainer, Cory Craig, of Craig Performance Horses and all my reining friends. ( Luckily they all scored better than me!) And they talked me down as I was truly a bit nervous in my first reining show.

I’m sure I’ll have many more to come- and the good news is…. I have no place to go but up!
