whitney is growing up

Remember Lill Whitbit? when I started Blogging she was 6-7 years old...and a thumb sucker





Today she is.... a Happy 12 year old who is in the 7th Grade !!!!
Whitney has been very active at the barn still and now is showing a Saddlebred. she is an amazing rider who has blown her trainers away with her talent.

we are busy from May - October traveling to shows almost every other weekend. which is alot of traveling but so worth the miles.
whitney has her room bordered with lots of ribbons but her very last show of the season this lil Girl took home Reserve champion...here she is above riding Nikki ( show name Nic Nac Caramac) on her victory run with her champion ribbons. Whitney has worked so hard in her showing which requires daily training she has proven herself and now was asked to go to World Champs in Louisville KY which is a week long show in August. she is now doing fundraising and working at the barn and for her Grandparents business to help save for her Kentucky fund. she needs to know that these shows are not cheap and she needs to do her part.
Here is whitney here at home with our Horse Bull run...he isnt savvy enough for Kentucky but he is a great friend to have at home to hop on and get a ride fix on :)
