my family's roots trace back into the highlands, and there's even a castle in our last name. =D it's pretty much complety DEAD and falling apart. xD so, this will be our, hmmm, 6th time to scotland? yes. =D

i can't WAIT to see my cousin, MATTIE. [scroll down to the post called 'pics of the fam.' or something like that and there's my dah-ling couzz] she's back from spanish camp in wisconsin or michigan...so i'm bringing a handy-dandy-let's-speak-spanish booklet. xP mads and i run a fake bussiness every year called 'The Kookie Corral'. this year we are planning to use REAL food. [lol inside joke....] mads and i also chase CHICKENS!!!! and then we collect their eggs and get half of the money collected. =D

another thing to look forward to in scotland is the PONIES!!!!! a) the place where we stay every other year has 4 ponies [i hope the still have them!] on about 100 acres of highland right next to the house. b) my mom and i are going to ride at this place that we go to every time we come to scotland. we sign up as experts and get to GALLOP. yesh yesh, funnn funnnn xP

last night was AH-MAZING...;; ♥|♥

yesh, like the title says. i rode R E N O last night. =D maybe that's why. lol first time since the show, which was exactly a week ago from today. [shudders.] yikes.

so, Reno was still a little 'jet-lagged' from the show, and so he was extremely slowwww and lazyy. well, at least he was when i was doing flatwork with him. xP so, Mad put up a cross-rail, then a vertical, then it was a HUGEE vertical. so, she said that since he was quiet in the ring, he would be great in the field. she was right. i jumped the barrels, which are hard because they are circular and tall, which was a first in a while with Reno. Reno would usually take off after a jump like that, but since he was tired, he just cantered quietly after it.

then, i worked on tight show jumping turns, which was sooooo much fun. =D Reno and I were PERFECT on every single one. it rawked.

after that we went into the woods and did the bank four or five times, and Reno was .... PERFECT. we then crossed the creek and did the ditch twice. it was kinda scary though....i don't like the ditch too much myself, and Reno thinks it's going to eat him.

then, i jumped a few logs out across the creek and we went back in, calling it a PERFECT day. =D

i'm soo excited that Reno is doing so well.

lindz.
