Looking back at lil with her summer coat… thinking about when I’m going to do the first clip of the season 😩

Anyone braved it yet and clipped?? I’m holding out but I want to start getting lil back to full fitness… been thinking about going hunting 😬

05/06/2023

The loveliest weekend with my ohana 🌺
I don’t know how managed to get everyone in looking this fabulous either 🙌🏻👑

21/05/2023

The amount of grass I’ve got right now is absolutely ridiculous 🫠

I can’t let the girls graze it as they would literally explode but we have little grass parties when I’m poo-picking their current paddock 😆

A week of glorious sunshine approaches- anyone up to anything fun?! ☺️

15/05/2023

I’ve never wished a week away like I have this week!

This Friday we’re heading to Ingestre for a XC lesson- the first XC this year for us 😍
Can’t wait to get lil spruced up and looking smart ready for what’s hopefully going to be a super exciting summer season 🙌🏻🙌🏻

08/05/2023

Getting hyped up for team chasing at the end of the month by looking back at old XC schooling photos 😆

So exited to get back out competing and so excited to meet my lovely team for the first time!! 🙌🏻

Praying for good ground 👏🏻

04/05/2023

Operation get event fit is certainly underway 💪🏻

Purely due to the fact that we’re going team chasing at the end of the month!
I’ve been going to the gym and lil has been doing lots of work 🐎

Excited doesn’t even come close 🥹👏🏻

Swipe to see what I did on Friday…
I got my gorgous girlie immortalised in tattoo form 🥰

I love it so much and I love that I’ll always have her cheeky face with me forever- my horse of a lifetime 🦄🫶🏼

HELLOOOO!!
Princess Tinkerblue Snowfluff here, just reminding everyone I am the boss round here… got my own stable now, the big horse doesn’t have one 😏

Anyway… be blessed by this booplesnoot selfie I took 😚

Peace out ✌🏼

I hope you’re having a great weekend so far! Who’s competing??

So gutted our Funride got cancelled tomorrow but as we all know the ground is pretty boggy at the minute and the organisers felt that it would be the safest option 😢

Oh well- there’s always another adventure to be had 😍

16/04/2023

Happy Sunday!! 😆

I hope you had a great week and he’s to hopefully better weather next week!🤞🏼

I could really do with the mud drying up now 🥲🥲

14/04/2023

What a change in weather!! ☀️➡️🌧️

Yesterday I let the girls have a graze on their summer paddock while I pop picked- and today they didn’t even want to come out from under the trees 🌳

10/04/2023

Bank hols over and out ✌🏼

Hope everyone had a great long weekend!?

Took this cute screenshot from when I jumped last week- I can’t believe I hadn’t jumped since January and Lil behaved perfectly!! 😍

Outfit all tagged ✌🏼

Hey! So it’s been a hot minute since I’ve used this page but from now on THAT CHANGES!!
I’m going to keep updating on here as well as Instagram, TikTok and YouTube 🙌🏻💖

06/04/2023

Want me to melt your heart in one photo?!

Look no further than these cuties- how can I hold head butting and escapism against them when they’re this adorable 🥹

We had a lovely hack in the sunshine today, couldn’t have asked for better weather and they both behaved impeccably 🙌🏻

Yesterday Lilly and I achieved something I have been wanting to do for SO many years!

We completed our first Hunter trial!!
Ready for the results....

I got myself eliminated 😂😂

This muppet forgot how to use her legs and the shock of seeing water after a jump was too much for Lilly and she heavily applied the brakes 😆
LUCKILY, I didn’t end up in the water! But laughed my way down to the grass, grinning like a Cheshire Cat.
Safe to say I flinged myself up off the nearest jump I could find and continued the course smiling like a maniac and shouting words of encouragement to Lilly the whole way 😄
I had such an amazing time and can’t wait to do it all over again... this time at an ODE (hopefully no water is two of the three phases!!)

I’m just smiling even writing this, we weren’t there to be competitive or break any world records... We were just happy to be there, have fun and have a great day out! Isn’t that really what it’s all about?

Just some chilled vibes from us, all filmed and edited by Ben 📸🧡

I’m LIVING for these lighter nights and few hours of warm sunshine on my face 🌅

Bring on summer!!!

23/02/2021

Spring is around the corner, lockdown restrictions are going to be eased, the weather is *slightly* better... better days are coming 😍

A little horsey ASMR for you here, I love hearing her munching away 🥰 plus some snoot boops for you 💖

Throwback to 2016!
The caption says it all, I believe this was just a week into Lil being away.
After starting to back Lil myself (with the help of my fiancé and family, on top leading/lunging me duties) we got to a point where I was struggling.
It seems backing your first horse AS your first horse was getting a struggle bus 😂

We were hacking out around home and she was doing great! Walking and trotting around the lanes like a pro, HOWEVER one day Lilly decided she’d had enough- turned and bolted back to home down the roads🥴 this happened twice in two weeks and I was stumped 🤷🏼‍♀️

So, Lilly went to Hillgrove stud for a month and Max worked magic on her! I went to ride her every week and her progress was incredible- it helped her so much 🥰
When Lil came home she was walking, trotting, cantering and much braver out hacking!

Moral of the story here is, it’s okay to admit you need some help. It’s okay to admit you’re scared. It’s okay to admit you’ve bitten off more than you can chew. It’s okay to admit you’re not sure!

My other hobby, still involving horses obviously 🙈

03/01/2021

This was our Christmas Day ✨walk✨
👀
I don’t think Lil got the memo she was supposed to be a sensible, level headed cob 🥴

03/01/2021

Happy 2021! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and new year!
I’ve took a little break from social media over my Christmas break to just be a human, 10/10 would recommend! 😂
Lilly has a had a break too, we’ve only had a couple of hacks the last two weeks partly due to the weather ❄️
Lilly enjoys a holiday and no doubt will come back feeling ready and raring 💪🏻 (time to get eventing fit!)
This is is photo from our Christmas morning ride- we went for what was meant to be a walk but turned into a jog 😂 video to follow...the poor dogs could barely keep up!

Chilly morning hacks seem to be a theme lately- these frosty, misty mornings are getting more frequent the closer we get to.... ->🎅🏼
Not long to go now until Christmas 2020- whether you thought it was happening or not this year we made it! This year is nearly over!!

Also only a few more days until the winter solstice which means we start getting some daylight back 😄👏🏻 which for anyone with any animals, not just horses, tends to mean better times are on the horizon 😂

I know, pink and red is a bit of a clash but go big or go home right 🙃😝
❄️❄️❄️

*edit* I put the wrong % on the video- it was 69.62% (6’s + 9’s being so similar!)
The finale to our was an our online dressage test with Showdown International 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 would totally recommend to anyone wanting to have a go to try one of these guys tests! They have a huge selection of classes and tests and it took me less than 5 minutes to enter, so easy! I also had one of the nicest sheets back from any test I’ve ridden- so much feedback and even exercises I can do to help build my scores for our next test 🥰

05/12/2020

This was the mood before our freestyle dismount on Wednesday 😂 (see previous post!) Me fashioning a new jumper, my birthday present from Kate- I didn’t have a horse until Lilly and by then I was a bit too old for the usual branded numnah/jumper/hat silk most would have as a horsey child (or so I thought!) now at 25, I have a jumper and I love it 🙈
I’ve also decided that we’re going to get out competing more now lockdown 2.0 is done, arena eventing or ODE’s ready for hopefully a season eventing next year 🤞🏼🤞🏼

02/12/2020

Anyone need a laugh this hump day? has ended leaving me in ?!? 😂🥴
