I found this Bloghop hosted by the $900 Facebook pony and I decided to hop on.  In the very least it will be fun to revisit next year! Check out Firefly’s, too!

Favorite show picture:

We went to our first show ever, a dressage show, back in August. It was pretty great and I got some nice photos, but I think my all-time favorite photo is this one of us out on cross country at the Lone Tree Farm Halloween Hunter Pace in October. Can’t hurt that is was a professional photo at that! I am the mad hatter on my Cheshire pony and I made that hat cover for my helmet all by myself!

Favorite non-show picture?

I seriously can’t pick one.  See the instagram feed.

Favorite thing you bought

I was trying to remember what of the many things I bought this year was my favorite, and there were so many contenders. I mean, my woofwear pads are pretty awesome. But the trailer that Bow actually fits in so we can actually go places? Priceless.

Favorite moment on horseback.

Turns out Bow and I are a good team! Look at that!

Favorite moment out of the saddle.

I’d post a picture of us playing Equestrians Against Humanity here… if I had one…  just sayin….

Favorite”between the ears” picture

I took Bow out on a trail with some of our barn friends and he was great! He is a bit large for some of the bushes and trees we had to go under and around…

Favorite horse book or article

Favorite horse ridden (or groomed/cared for) aside from your own

I don’t care for or ride these two horses, but they are my favorites, other than my own.  Left-right: Bow, River and Firefly

Favorite funny picture of your horse

He puts up with me.

Favorite fence that you successfully jumped or movement that you conquered

I conquered so many things this year: Bow’s tendency to bolt, my fears about being a good horse person, taking my horse places, jumping anything, making horse friends.  This is the culmination of a whole year of success.
