*Lots and LOTS of Pics* Last Week's Lesson!!**

Well last week's lesson went exceptionally well! I learned A LOT riding Rion, the Monster Saddlebred, but boy o boy do I LOVE riding him! This horse can jump!!

All the mistakes in the pictures, I made (of course, lol). In some of them I know we're jumping too soon and I just kept messing up, but he really taught me a lot and it helps make me a better rider. He's a dream to ride, but a brat on the ground, lol. Well here are all the pictures!!

Sometimes it's hard to believe I've only been back in the saddle for 3 almost 4 months!!!

I absolutely LOVE it! Especially with this horse. He just loves jumping and is so incredible at it! I can't wait to find a horse that can jump just as good.. I sure am looking! Even though I messed up quite a bit during this lesson, I learned a lot and had a bunch of fun.

He is a giant! I'm learning how to jump right now so I know how excited you feel when everything goes right. Its just so hard to multi task when you are learning something new. I find it almost impossible to try and concentrate on more than one thing when jumping. You two look great together.

Thanks, Caitlin! I know what you mean about multi-tasking. It can be a lot and when I'm trying to concentrate on one thing, I fumble doing what else I was supposed to be doing. But I'm getting the hang of it all right and I just love it!

BUMP!

He's a GREAT horse in the arena and really works hard.. but he is such a brat on the ground.. =\ He likes to kick the stall next to him if that horse is getting food and he's not. He was very spoiled by his previous owner and they didnt teach him very good manners.

You look so tiny up on that giant horse!!!!! I bet he is a blast to ride and has a huge stride!!!! I am so glad you are enjoying the lessons and still riding- it sure goes a long way to heal the heart. Keep up the good work Renee!
