Some days you just needs some good olโfashioned barn rats to make you smile. They rode their horses, they rode lesson horses and then they swapped each other horses and rode some more. They played after the storm and then still wanted to go to the movies and hang out together. These are friendships and memories that last a life time. โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
We had a great week in Michigan at the Big Sky Circuit. Lots of wins, points and Circuit Champions. Beyond proud of everyone!

If you give your child a pony, they will want to ride. Youโll buy them the best pony you can find, followed by a helmet, boots and all the other things pony.
You look for a local barn to ride at where you start to socialize with the equestrian communityโฆโฆโฆโฆAnd then life as you know it, will end.
Before you know it, they want to show so you find a circuit โฆ..There will be no more lazy weekends watching tv. You will see more sunrises than you ever thought possible.
Every spare minute of your time will be spent hauling campers, traveling to horse shows, and enduring a crazy addiction to practice for the next show.
Your house may be a mess, and your car will be dirty. All because you gave your child a pony. Your weekends will be spent freezing or burning to death on a fold up chair. And their weekends will be spent gaining confidence and friends, learning new skills and having fun and getting dirty!!!!
You will be there the day he or she takes the first few steps of canter, nails his/her first pattern, first ribbon, first championship. And they will make you SO proud. Other parents will congratulate you, but you feel weird saying thank you because it's not you on the pony, itโs your child. It's everything that they did, they achieved. And right before your eyes, your little boy/girl will be transformed from the baby who bounced around on their rocking horse into an exceptional young horse enthusiast who is competing at the World Championship level.
When you give your child a pony , you give them more than just something to ride. You give them a sport, a talent, hope and dreams. Friends, a new family, a place to learn about life, room to grow as a person where they can push their limits, and bravery, and courage, and memories. And they will have ALL of these things, simply because you gave your child a pony.
Because you gave your child a pony, you too will develop new/lifelong friendships, developed solely from the same passion for the sport. You
