Live Life Random

 I love this pony :) so I figured I’d do a post all about her!  We think that she is a full paint/quarter horse. She is small, approximately 15 hands. But she is built round so she still is big enough for my legs (I’m 5’7). She’s a chestnut with three white stockings, and a mostly white face (not quite bald though, I think technically a blaze?). She has a small chestnut spot by her eye. She is considered a paint because of her white spot on her stomach.  Her eyes have a lot of white in them which gives her a goofy face. We like to joke that Dot has three emotions: mildly annoyed, absolutely insane, and completely terrified. Her trot is very nice, fairly smooth and usually a good pace. Her canter, however, is… a lot. It’s fast, our top speed so far has been 12.7 mph, and her controlled canter is 11.4 (to put in perspective, my friend’s 17hh OTTB’s normal canter is about 10.2 and his jumping canter is 13.2). So it’s fast. And her left lead is pretty uncomfortable lol 😂. But big news!! M

 Hi Everyone! It has been SO LONG since we’ve wrote anything! I promise I’ll be better now that life has calmed down (can’t say anything for Naomi though ;)  ) This summer has been hectic! Naomi was on a new trip visiting family almost every week, and I was busy with horses, my job, babysitting, and lots of travel!  Me and Naomi did have one trip where we got to stay together! We stayed at Henderson Harbor in Upstate New York off of Lake Ontario for two weeks with some New York friends!  The trip was amazing and fun-stuffed! On the lake we went swimming in the lake almost everyday,  we went tubing behind the Sea Doo Watercraft, took rides on the Sea Doo where we got past 50 mph,  paddle boarded, did henna, and took fun jumping photos off the dock!  Oh, and we found this creepy horse that became our mascot for the week 🤣 Aside from vacations, I have been super busy riding! As you all know, I was going over small cross rails on Vegas, then he bucked me off so my confidence was set back.

 So sorry we have been radio silent for so long! This summer has been unbelievably busy! We promise in a couple weeks when all the crazy is over we’ll get back to blogging!
