1st and 3rd Place Ribbons

Grace loved being in the playdays event yesterday at the stables. She was the youngest competitor with the rest of the kids and one adult being atleast 5 years older than her. She rode Paris which is the same horse that she rides in almost all of her lessons. She and Paris did great. In her skill level there were about 6 kids. She got a 1st place ribbon for poles and a 3rd place ribbon for barrels. I have added a video of her competing in one event but since she has never even practiced this event she didn't do very well. You can just see by the smile on her face how much she loves it when Paris starts to gain speed. This week she is going to learn to canter Paris but she is so light that Ms. Anna is going to have to strap her to the saddle with a horse car seat.
