Take State

Stuff you can see at the 4H State Horse Champsionships...
I'm thinking of  something similar for my car.

State 4H was pretty fun and educational even though 3 days of competition was kind of  exhausting for Jessie, and she was disappointed with some of her events. It was a great experience, and the out-of-town crowd was pretty cool.

Here are a few action photos of our amazing girl.

On her near personal-best barrels run with Pumpkin.

I know I already posted this one - sorry, I like it.

Another great run on Poles. (She loves speed events.)

I had to post this one of her with Dolli in Halter, even though she was bummed about her score. She has the cutest forced smile looking at the judge - just after he pulls the white flag.  (She's not a big fan of show events.)

 Goofing off at the trailer with T. and S.

Jess chatting it up with friends.

The Man. Thanks Dad.

 I've promised, now that Jessie's riding season is over, to give the other kids more equal blog time. Because they are all awesome.

Way to go, Jess. We're so proud of you!
