Halloween is tomorrow! how e x c i t i n g I'm going trickortreating with my my sister and my cousin and her boyfriend and friends so it should be fun. Equine Affaire is getting closerrrr yay i get so excited about it that it's a problem well anyway, I hope to find a bareback pad if they have any because even though i like the way....damn i'm trying to phrase this so it wont sound dirty.. hmmm well i guess i'll just say i feel bad that i'm sitting right on his back so i want him to be comfortable(good?) ok well my sisters birthday is also soon so i gotta figure out what i'm going to get her...

Pidgeon likes pumpkin lattes(if you didn't see the picture) hehe... he is so adorable.. and spoiled I prefer the muffins myself

hmmm what else... Well the driving clinics are doing well. last week was the third of four weeks and the last week had to be moved so it's now in november instead of today... all the people and their horses are doing sooooooo well. it's nice to see them improve every week and start to learn everything and teach their horse.

Saranac again

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 20:34:25 PDT

Just got back from a weekend at the lake it was amazing as usual. yes it was cold but we made the best of it and the best came from around the campfire or staying up til 4 in the morning and getting up at 6. Saturday my friends dad made everyone pancakes(the good kind with chocolate chips!) and for lunch the moms made lunch which was also very good and all the kids made dinner(linguini and clam sauce with salad and garlic bread) it was FABULOUS. and today we went to lake placid and shopped for a few hours. overall it was a wonderful trip and i took over 300 pictures I'll be uploading the dA worthy pictures probably tomorrow

Autumn!!

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 18:27:16 PDT

my favorite season!... I'm sooo excited for autumn to be here. the air smells fresher and the trees are sooo pretty. I picked up the camera today for the first time in probably close to a month. Its been neglected because i've been missing my PC with my editing program I miss using it and there is no way i can afford a program for mac. boooooo :'(.

Yesterday I helped with a driving clinic(teach your miniature horse how to drive) I was the assistant i guess.. i helped the people when they needed it mostly and at the end of the four week course i get paid not a bad deal at all and i'm doing what i love doing so it's pretty awesome.

Equine affaireeeeee its sooooon! i love equine affaire and this year John Lyons is doing demos so i'm excited to see that... and buy stuff of coursee

guess thats all for now

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 13:41:43 PDT

I haven't updated in foreverrr. well heres a short version of everything.

my PC got a virus so i'm using my dads mac which has no editing program so no pictures for a while
I went to Saranac Lake with my bff and my sister for the first weekend of august. It was fantastic! We use to go there every year when i was little but we stopped going for about 4 years. the only bad part was when i got this horrible sunburn that was still peeling after two weeks(i know TMI)
uuhhmmm ok i can't think of anything else of importance right now so, peaceoutt

Show was awesome

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 21:00:55 PDT

I had such a good time at the World show. It was me and the lady who owns the minis and a lady who came with us. I was High point Entry Level Youth for Halter Performance, High Point Youth Halter Performance, High Point Entry Level Driving youth, and Kenzi(the mare i mostly show) was Supreme World Champion Halter Performance B Horse shown by a youth(me!) So it was a really good show for me. I also met some people my age which i never get to do so that was cool. There was a fair going on in a different part of the fair grounds so we went up there a few times to eat and chill after the show. Saturday evening we went on the Go carts and had a BLAST it was so much fun. it was just us three in the group together so we wert shy about cutting each other off and doing exactly what you aren't supposed to do on them but the people running the go carts were having just as much fun watching us as we were driving so they never told us to stop the horseplay
I showed a total of six horses at the two day show which i'm sure helped for the overall high point titles I showed Cash in three classes(Halter and Roadster) and that was fun because for the smaller shows that we do they don't allow a youth to show a stallion but here they do if your over 12 I love cash he is so awesome. Romeo and Ringo were two geldings that i showed in a class each for the lady that tagged along with us and i Placed first in both of those. Tootsie did wonderful in Country Pleasure Driving. She was quiet and pleasurable and just so perfect for it being only he second show ever!. CeCe was super fantabulous in the classes she went in(especially Trail) and it was her first show ever and shes not even that well trained for Hunter/Jumper and Trail but her trail courses were so much better then Tootsies. Needless to say, I was impressed. Kenzi was of course Perfect. she always is so not much to say about that I also got reserve Champion in Showmanship which is the one class that i would rather not do but I did so good that it makes it easier to handle
The one thing i had a hard time with at the show was someone was interested in buying Tootsie(she is technically for sale) and I literally almost had a break down in front of everyone. I didn't think it would be so hard to accept the fact that shes not my horse and her owner can sell all her horses if she wanted to. If i got an email right now saying Tootsie was sold i would be just as upset as if she was mine. I really love that horse so much that i wish i could buy her myself.

Overall it was such a great show. I wish all the shows could be so enjoyable.

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 20:44:29 PDT

_{It looks like i forgot to update about the last miniature horse show but there isn't much to tell... It was overall an OK show But the highlight was winning Tootsie's first blue Ribbon! I was really happy because it was her first show ever and her second time in the show ring

The next show is Next weekend.. its farther away then the last one so it will probably be about the same amount of days as the last one even though the actual show is a day less. For this show I'm showing Kenzi, Tootsie, CeCe, and two Geldings that i know nothing about, ALL in the youth classes o.O needless to say I'll have a very busy weekend next week...

We took a family trip to NYC today which was fun the best part of the day was going to the B&H store!(www.bhphotovideo.com) we didn't stay long but it was long enough for me to decide that the Rebel XSi is DEFINITELY worth saving for. I'll probably buy a lens before the camera body but thats definitely the body i want.

Enough for now..

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 12:16:26 PDT

_{haha another Journal Entry for today. Rio(my dog) Got sprayed by a skunk today. Wonderful. we did the Hydrogen Peroxide/Baking Soda/Dish Soap Mix and It didn't work. Probably because he needs double the mix since hes so big and it probably didn't help that he was rolling around half the time so we couldn't get it really good in there. I know that the mix works because Chloe(RIP) got sprayed once and we used it on her. Naturally Rio got sprayed worse then her and Naturally his eyes are red so we have to keep an eye on him but that is to be expected with him. hes a danger magnet. He can't just get porcupine quills in his face nooo he also has to get them so far in that he needs surgery to get them out. and he can't just get sprayed by a skunk, He has to have red eyes and probably get a weird reaction to it as well. oh welllll what can you do about it? I still love him even with his horrible odor}

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 07:29:51 PDT

_{I've been having really good ideas for human photography but sadly I don't have any models to work with and my friends would never get in front of the camera like that I have one idea for a self-portrait but it kinda has to rain and i need a tripod(which i have but my mom needs to bring it to the house) I think it's a really good idea but I've never intentionally waited for rain to come then try to get a good picture out of it... We'll see how it goes.. Rain is probably a terrible idea but i think it's the only way this picture will come out right. I might try doing it in the rain first and then if that doesn't work i'll try with out the rain. wish me luck! i might need it...

_{My sister got her new beast yesterday. He's a 14hh registered Haflinger and he is the sweetest horse ever! he didn't spook once last night when he first got home and he just stood there looking around.. he is nervous still but i think he'll be fine in a week or so... Woody pretty much hates him so now hes got a few bite marks on his butt but hes new and Woody is just trying to keep his status as "The Boss"

Me, My sister, and my mom did a 10 mile bike ride for the American Diabetes Association and it was soooo hard! we didn't exactly train for it so it was a lot to do at one time but we did it in probably an hour and a half ^_^

New book

_{I just got a new book about Exposure and Lighting since i know very little about it so I'm hoping this will help me out with my photography since lighting is a huge part of a good picture.

in other news... My sisters soon-to-be pony is getting vet checked tomorrow! if all goes well then we will most likely have him hear on Wednesday but i'll try not to jinx it}

_{My sister found a horse. FINALLY. OK well hes a pony but whatever... hes a 14hh Haflinger gelding. he is soooo adorable. Hes getting vet checked on Tuesday and if all goes well then we will probably have him home by next Saturday! how exciting is thatttt?
other then that nothing else has really happened except that i got my new retainer today(Rio chewed the other one). The funny thing is, I don't think they believed me when i said "My dog chewed it" because i'm guessing a majority of people who need new retainers Lost the other one. so it's kinda like "My dog ate me homework". well the jokes on them because MY dog really did eat my retainer}

omg

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sat, 16 May 2009 22:07:46 PDT

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 13:15:05 PDT

_{I FIXED IT. after a few weeks of firefox not letting me log onto deviantart, I finally got it to let me on! I'm so happy right now haha I'll try to upload more pictures now that i can log on to it everyday.}

Ugh

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 13:27:03 PDT

Well I'm sadly only going to be able to log on a few times a week now and i probably wont be uploading any(or very few) pictures because on my computer it wont let me log on to Firefox(for no reason at all) and i WAS using Internet explorer but it randomly got deleted and i tried to redownload it but that didn't work(I'm a very confused person right now) so i'm on my dads mac so that i can upload a picture that i really like. and while i'm here i guess i'll update on life.

so on friday i went to Sandy's house(miniature horse owner) for the first time this year and i took pictures of cash's 2009 babies(there's still one mare who hasn't had her foal yet) so far there is Two Girls and one boy(not including outside foals) for this year.

The first one is Keaira, She's a Black and White Filly with Blue eyes and she is so so so friendly. she was following me around the whole time i was taking pictures which was cute it made it hard to take a decent picture of her ^_^

The second is Janie who is a minimal white pinto(she only has i tiny white spot that isn't really visible) but she is really cute and i can't wait to see her body clipped.

The third is Newton who is the first colt i've seen at DPS(Due Process Stable) and i've been there for four years lol, anywayyy.. Newton has the cutest face marking ever. It's like a half stripe on the bottom of his face. he was just born Friday morning so i haven't gotten to see his personality yet.

Woody is doing good.. I rode him a few times this month but it's been pretty rainy :\ I really need to get a job so maybe i'll be able to board him somewhere over the fall/winter(doubt it) so that i can't actually ride him more.

hmm.. i guess thats all for now.. I'll try to get on and check messages as much as possible but we'll see.. :/

Horse searching

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 17:08:34 PST

_{My sister has been searching for a horse to buy and so far she's had no luck at all. We looked at a horse in maryland a week or two ago and we loved him but when we got home and emailed the owner about getting him vet checked she refused to do it unless we paid for her to trailer him over to the vet and for her time spent taking him there and the whole vet bill. so in the end we decided that there was most likely something wrong with the horse if she didn't want to get a vet to look at him. Now my sister is looking at two ponies in PA(ugh another road trip) which are young and very cute. she is interested in them for train to sell purposes because Horses are more her thing. we'll see what happens but maybe she'll actually have some luck with buying a horse.}

New Update

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 13:01:12 PST

_{It's been a while...

It's Winter(DUHHH) so I can't do much riding because I don't have an arena. I can ride in the snow if theres enough of it and if it's not to slippery(like wet snow usually isn't good). So instead of riding i'm teaching woody how to bow. not the complicated bow that has the horse down on one knee. no, i'm teaching him the simple put-your-head-between-your-legs bow. easy enough right? naahhhtttt... Woody isn't the fastest learner ever.. i could probably teach it to pidgeon faster then it's taking my to teach woody. Hes getting there.. hes go the whole put your head between your legs thing down but he gets mad sometimes and just backs up or bites at his sides(hes speciallll) i'm also trying to get him to put his left front leg forward when he does it but he only does it sometimes and then it usually leads to pawing. I was also thinking of using a Clicker as his cue to bow because he doesn't seem to listen to the Word when i actually say it and his only other cue(besides saying "bow") is me standing at his left side with my right hand down near his leg. ahh the trials of teaching the "simple" bow... I think i'd also like to teach Pidgeon the simple bow because if i can get them to both do it with the Clicker then it would be cute to have them do it at the same time

Firefox isn't working for some reason :\ I really hate Internet Explorer. It's sooo much slower then FF and it doesn't have the spell checker.. I just don't even know what to do about it because the error thing that pops up when you try to open it makes no sense at all...

I cleaned out our Cereal Shelf and found like 5 boxes of cereal that were almost empty and probably stale. I knew no one would eat them so i took out all the bags and poured two boxes of LIFE, a box of Raisen Bran, a box of Honey nut cheerios, and a box of Frosted Mini Wheats into on of the cereal bags and mixed them together and now we have a bag of mixed cereal for our horses as occasional treats. It saves a lot of cereal from being wasted and the horses love it

Update(2/12/09): Yesterday I went to the Spa(for the first time ever) with my sister and my best friend. The spa was something her mom wanted to do for her Birthday(which was a week ago) so we didn't have to pay for it(yayy). anywayyyy. we all got facials first. mine was so relaxing and nice and my skin felt amazing after it was over. then we got our nails done. I got mine painted a super bright(neon-ish) pink and it looks awesome!. then we got our makeup done. not too much just a simple thing which was annoying because i already knew how to do everything she did... i wanted something different. But hey, I'm not really complaining because the whole thing was really nice and i was really glad my friends mom was so willing to pay for it.

that's all for now.

random stuff

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sun, 01 Feb 2009 08:59:28 PST

_{Super Bowl sundayyy. I actually hate football but of course I watch the Super Bowl because of the commercials
My favorite commercials are always the Budweiser commercials because of the cute horses ha ha.

I watched Saw V(5) a few days ago with my mom and sister and after the movie ended i was wondering whyyy i torture myself with watching the movies because I Hate Scary movies.. and Saw is one of the worst ones. but for some reason i kinda like Saw. I like the plot and everything but it scares me to the point of shaking... oh well, i can't wait for Saw 6 hehe.

TWILIGHT is stalking meeee every site i go on there is at least one Advertisement Twilight related. and dA is the worst. Facebook being almost as bad. Then PerezHilton.com. I mean i Looveee Twilight and all but it's seriously annoying to see ads about it allll the time...

My mom gave me the book InkHeart a few years ago and I started reading it but back then a 500+ page book was huge for me so i ended up not reading it until i saw the preview for the movie and remembered the book. so i read the book and I LOVE IT it's awesome and now I'm going to go buy the other two books . Dustfinger is my favorite character

guess that's it for now.

_{I've been seeing these on the Beta testers pages and I'm so so so so excited about them! they look awesome and i love all the new features like the easy editing and just overall i am happy with it. more happy then i was with the new version of dA when it came out.

Driving is super fun..and scary but I'm pretty good at it and getting better every time i drive .

I rode Woody a few times this month and he was pretty good considering that the first time i rode he hadn't been ridden in a month or two and the second time i rode him was a week later. oh and i was using his new rubber snaffle which is the lightest bit hes ever been in. I was very proud that he only Bucked once each time i rode him. here are some pictures from the first time i rode him in the snaffle

_{soo yesterday(my birthday) we went to the DMV so i could take the test to get my permit and i was freaking out because i had no idea how easy it was gonna be. But it was easy cause i read the manual like 40 times so i knew every question even though they didn't tell me how well i did I'm pretty sure i got 0-1 wrong . so now i have my permit and i drove once up the road yesterday and at first i pressed the gas to hard so the car shot forward then i pressed the brake too hard so we stopped really fast(lol) but after that i did much better I can't wait to drive again.

Resolution

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 14:29:15 PST

_{sooo...I was watching some horse videos on YouTube and i noticed that the riders all had a really special bond with their horses. Like one girls horse followed her over a jump with nothing on it. That got me thinking. Thinking about how Woody doesn't do that. Sure he'll follow me around...If i have a box of something yummy in my hand =/. I want a special bond with my horse too. thats all i've ever wanted with my horse. I seem to love woody a lot more then he loves me. SO, I've decided that my new years Resolution will be to work on my bond with my pony. I'll spend more time Grooming him and when the snow goes away I'll ride him a lot more then i did last year(i barely rode him last year and i have no idea why) and i'll also work on being more patient with him. If that fails then i guess I'll just be the only one who has bonded...

By the way..I TURN SIXTEEN TOMORROW!..I'll update tomorrow probably

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 12:28:07 PST

_{Lets start with No pony..my sister has decided not to get the pony =[ oh well..

Friday was a really bad Ice storm that actually started friday night but the power didn't go out til 12:30am Friday and we stayed up til 4am listening to the trees fall down around our house. One tree actually hit the roof but i didn't do any damage. we didn't get our power back til monday which sucked and now it's snowing and we are supposed to get like a foot of snow! ahhhh! i really do hate the snow.

I cannot believe that it's almost Christmas! what happened to the time? the good news is that my 16th birthday is January 5th so excited!

ok well i guess i'll go find something to do now}

My sister is going to buy him and have him gelded before he comes back so that we don't have any baby horses next year xP

I can't wait to go pick him up!}

The latest obsession

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 10:04:38 PST

_{Obsessions are not healthy... but i can't help it

Kellan Lutz aka Emmett Cullen is my newest obsession...come on admit it he is really hot.

anywayyyy....It's raining outside and its only 40 degrees. It's wayy to cold lol. so i'm stuck inside with nothing else to do except mess with PSP..maybe i'll put those textures from arrsistable to good use. yeah while i'm on the subject of arrsistable,i was suppose to get a Journal feature from her and a set of textures for sending a screen shot of her 77,777 page view and i got the textures but never got the feature and shes had two journals since then and her latest one had a feature of someone else =\ oh well..i'm not one to nag and i've already reminding her about it once and i love her art work and i respect her so if she chooses not to feature me then i guess i'm going to have to get over it..I was just really excited about it and now i'm a little disappointed thats all..}

VENTING

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 17:28:21 PST

_{kkkk I'm gonna vent a little about the Twilight movie(I wont spoil!) so yeah we went to the Midnight showing of it(earliest possible showing!) and i was sooo excited and i was like bouncing around and finally the damn movie started and I was pretty disappointed right from the start..Bella was extremely awkward(more then i would have thought) but when she first met Edward it was reallly funny(not spoilinggg) and it was funny in some parts which i didn't expect. But the whole movie seemed to be rushed and they added things that weren't in the book and took out a lot of stuff that actually was in the book..and to me it seemed like they put little thought into how they put the movie together(like i said,Rushed.) and they way they put the scenes together was very odd...it didn't seem to flow together very well. and Edward was always tense when he was with bella excpt for a few tiny parts in the movie. and i know that he was suppose to be getting use to her and stuff but he would go from being tense to comfortable and back to tense very quickly in the scenes..it's kinda hard to explain but yeah it wasn't very fun to watch because they made it so different from the book..it was strange.. I give it Two thumbs down for the way the movie was put together and Two thumbs up for Kellan and Jackson(Emmet and Jasper) being ridiculously hot (thats right,I have four Thumbs lol) so anywayy I don't want to tell anyone not to watch it but it really was disappointing to me. Not that i wont buy it on DVD when it comes out but that will only be for watching the funny scenes and the good scenes with Kellan

Thats all for now..I'm all done Venting
peace.

oh and P.S. I want a Jeep like Emmet's now}

I bought a chain lead rope,black bell boots,and blue open front boots for woody(which look reallly cute on him) and a blue ariat jacket for my sister because sat. was her birthday..

I also got to meet(and pet!)one of the main horses that played Hidalgo,RJ Masterbug. He did all the fast action stuff. we got to see him rear,paw,bow,pick up a bag,attack(not literally attack someone),and step up on a "mark". it was a really fun day and i can't wait for next year.}

Beauty is gone..

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 13:37:21 PDT

_{Beauty left today..back to the lady who owned her before...Woody is like verry depressed that his friend left so he whinny's every time a car goes down the road...it's just so weird not having her here...I guess i just go use to having her around...well enough depressing stories.

I rode woody earlier and first my sister lunged him(shes like my personal lunger lol) then i got on him bareback and practiced using my thighs lol then i put my saddle on for a little harder riding..he was really good but really pokey even with spurs on..maybe i'll wear the bigger ones next time..}

brrr Octoberrr

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 08:43:04 PDT

_{So I'm sitting here, cross legged with a blanket over me,because even with the heat on its cold in here and i hate it! I wish it was still July but the happy thing is that my sweet sixteen is in a few short months and I'm really exited about it I'll get my permit and then i can drive around lol..

Soo i watched Camp Rock last night just because it was on and i've never seen and and i was so jealous of Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas was looking verry hot ...the movie was over all a little corny but it's a kids movie so i didn't expect much from it...they did cut the kissing scene out though..i though it was suppost to be on there??

So um i think thats all for now..I'll just be sitting here freezing my toes off...maybe making some line art...

peaceout}

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 16:50:13 PDT

_{YESSSSSSSSSSSS The Rebel is fixed! My sister was just fooling around with it, trying to get it to work and then she was like,"I'm going to will this thing to work." and then she turned it on and took a picture and IT WORKED! ahh i was sooo happy and now i'm uploading some pictures from today with the minis

Peaceee}

Success!

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 19:02:20 PDT

_{WE DID IT! we got Pidgeon to Lift his leg up and paw while on the stool...he did it all by himself and figured out that when he lifts up his leg he gets a reward. Yeah i'm exited}

I love pidgeonnn

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 18:24:51 PDT

_{I love Pidgeon soooo much

So Today i had this brilliant Idea to Teach him to step up on a stool. I wanted to try it because i saw a video of a mini doing it and i thought it was adorable and me and my sister have been wanting to teach him tricks for a while now and this seemed easy enough so we tried it- and it worked we got him to do it in about 10minutes! he was so cute!. So now all we have to do is get him to realize that when he gets up he'll get a treat. and once that happens he'll(hopefully) get on it by himself.

thats all for now,peaceee}

New dA

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 18:33:50 PDT

_{I'm Really kinda Bored with dA right now...i don't know what it is...i'll upload a few pictures but don't expect me to be one much...i really just don't know whats going to happen. i might quit. i just don't get the critique(sp?) that i need,here.

We'll see what the Summer has instore for me. but most likely i'll be quitting by the end of the summer. maybe sooner.}

Go Yellow!

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 13:52:34 PDT

_{Yellow is my favorite color everrrr.

I really miss Jill Sahner on dA I loved reading her new adventures with Gus,Theo,Mouse,Max,and Ashley. But Flikr is still good

I have a mini show coming up,Possibly. Not sure yet if Sandy needs to go or not. shes only going if Cash needs halter points because the other mini shes trying to beat went to the World show and she didn't,so we will see.

Had a photoshoot at her house less then a week ago so that she could have updated pictures of the babies that are for sale. Next week i think we are Doing the 2 year olds and possibly her new mare.

Sadly i'm not getting paid for these photoshoots but she pays for me and my sister to show her minis so i think it's only fair that i give her something back.}

---------------

hhahaha well that was interesting...Well Um my day started off with Woody getting tangled in his leadrope while he was tied to the trailer and so we ran out and calmed him down(he was thrashing around and denting the trailer and hurting himself more. So I held him still while my sister un tied the quick release knot(not so quick when it's super tight) and then he got up. Thank God he wasn't hurt to bad. he was walking on all four feet,not limping or anything. the only think is that he has a small cut right above his left hind hoof. but i hosed it off and put some alu-spray(or whatever it's called) on it so hopefully it wont get infected. so after all that we relized Chloe and Rio wernt around anywhere. So we went inside and chloe had came to the dorr so we let er in but Rio wasn't with her. Now that made me worry because the only other time he didn't come back with her was in the winter when he was drowning in the pond. So we called and called and called for him but he wasn't responding to our calls. so we cheacked down by both ponds and alot of other places that he could be but No Rio. So my sister started Crying because They really do have like an incredibly strong bond. I wanted to cry but for some reason i just couldn't. I went inside and went in my room looking for my cell(lost it!!) and when i walked out of my(well Our)room Rio was walking towards me covered in Mud. Now thats when i started crying. I was just sooo happy that he was back. So yeah i think he took himself for a walk and rolled in a puddle(his favorite thing to do) it doesn't matter,I'm just happy that hes back.}

wow um...wow

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 27 May 2008 19:09:20 PDT

_{Yeah i'm kinda in shock right now....
My mom just told me that she is getting me a welsh corgi puppy for my birthday...she said i just have to pick what birthday.

um yeah i don't even know what to think.

wow I really don't even know what to say.....

well i guess i'll just tell you that Beauty is doing much better and the swelling is almost gone. And yesturday i rode woody into the barn bareback with just a halter. yep. thats meh boyyy <333}

Long Day

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 20 May 2008 15:06:19 PDT

_{Well My day started Out like normal. I got all the grain ready while my sister got the hay. It took about 30minutes to do all the grain because my sisters horse,Beauty Is very high maintence and needs alot of food. Then we headed over to the barn and opened the door expecting Woody(my pony) to be right there. Well he wasn't,No Big Deal,He was over with Beauty. But Beauty was laying Down,Kind of unusual for her but we didn't think anything of it. "Ok I'll go bring Woody Out" I Said to my sister. So i put him out and he was happily munching on his breakfast so i went to go help my sister with her horse. When My sister pulled on Beauty to get her up(she now has her halter on) she attempted to but slipped and fell back down. I got a little worried by this point and told My sister to Pull on her when she stared to get up so that she could support her weight. So She did. and Beauty got up this time. But she wasn't OK. she wasn't putting any weight on her left hind leg. Uh-Oh. So I went into the house and got mom and dad and they came out and looked at her. Then mom went to call the vet because she still wouldn't put weight on it and she had only hopped a few steps forward on three legs. So my Dad put a leadrope around her butt and gently pulled forward and she hopped a few more steps,Just far enough to get fully outside the barn. We put her grain and hay and water bucket infront of her where she could reach them. The vet came a few hours later and by then we had determend that the source of the problem was (probably) a small wound on the inside of her hock. When we showed the vet she got a little worried because it was right over the joint and she didn't know how deep the wound went. So she clipped around the wound and then stuck a probe in it to see how deep it went. Not that deep. Only about an inch. She said the lessened our chances of it affecting the Joint. Then she put a catheter in and washed it out with some yucky looking brownish stuff. Next she put some spray on it to seal it and prevent agenst infection(It turned silver ). Then she gave her a shot to ease the pain so that hopefully she would put some weight on her hoof. So Now shes in the barn all by herself,Resting. and we were told to wrap her back legs with polos to support them. So now after I get done with this update I'll be giving her a (little)scoop of bute and 12(!!) SMZ pills(crushed). And she gets that in her grain Twice a day. So about 10-15 minutes ago we got a call from mom and dad(they were on a walk) saying that Chloe and Rio got into a porcupine and I had to look up how to get the quills out. Well unfourtuntly they wouldn't hold still and Chloe had alot on her toung so now they are at the vets getting quills taken out of there faces.

Well I hope you liked my very interesting story about today.}

blabbberblabbbber

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Sun, 18 May 2008 20:28:35 PDT

_{Well If you've seen my gallery lately you will see the Liver Chestnut pony i'm totally in love with(which is sad because i own my own pony)and i had more pictures of it because i just wanna look at it all the time. ahh life would be good owning a 3 year old small pony hunter. Well Lifes not always fair i guess.

Woody is shedding like crazyyy. It's gross. I can't wait for next year when i will hopefully be able to show him.

It's hard sometimes,Owning a pony,Life was easier with just pidgeon and cupcake. and sometimes i think about what i could have gotten if i didn't get woody. Like a new lens. And the sad part is,I actually thought it was best to sell him at one point! I know CRAZY right? well i don't know. I defenitly(spellllingggg) Don't want to sell him now but I havn't riden him in weeks and I know that I'd probably choose taking pictures at a show over riding him at a show...Depending on what show it was. ughhhh well I know that I will never give him up unless worst comes to worst and we can afford horses anymore(not gonna happen)because I love him to death...But do I love Riding him just as much? I really couldn't tell you.}

St. Clements

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Fri, 16 May 2008 16:41:54 PDT

went to St. Clements today It was fun and you should look at the beautiful horses that were there in my gallery

I was there all day and I was thinking,"Jill Sahner and Ashley should be here riding there horses" (hehe) I know I don't even know them but St. Clements is an "A" Rated show so it kinda seems like something atleast Jills Friend,Ahsley Would do with that gorgeous new eq horse of hers ^_^

well anyway i guess thats it for now.

P.S. I really need a new lens

blahblahblah

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 13 May 2008 08:22:21 PDT

_{So I've gone to two miniature horse shows so far. One on the 4th and one on the 11th. I don't have another one 'till the 31st and then nothing 'till September :\.

I Hooked Pidgeon up to the cart for the first time on wed. and I actually got in the cart on his second day driving on friday he was soooo amazing! He didn't buck or rear or take off and not stop . The only thing he needs to work on is his turning. Hes not the best at that

So yeah thats pretty much it}

Show Time

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Tue, 06 May 2008 15:39:04 PDT

_{It's that time of year again. Time for all the mini shows I went to one on sunday it was sooo much fun I sadly did not get any photos worth putting on here because i was showing not taking pictures. Going to another show on sat. yippeeeee! lol yeah that one should be fun too. I am still really exited that Kaley isn't leaving...yet. I don't know if anyone put any offers on here but i sure hope not.}

Better

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Thu, 01 May 2008 10:53:07 PDT

_{Better now yup i guess it was only like a one day thing. But now my sister has it :\ and it looks like she has it worse then i did.

So we ordered Pidgeon a "sleazy sleepwear" hood from minitack.com [link](we got him the flames) and it came yesterday. and yes,even though i was sick i felt better and i was exited so i went outside and we tried it on. and i must say that IT IS SO ADORABLE. he thinks its like the worst thing in the world but he needs it because hes body clipped and it's been getting cold at night.

Oh and "classy" is now "Kaley" again because the people who were going to buy her can't anymore so if she doesn't get sold in three months shes staying! whoopyyyy!!

ok I'm done now.

Ta. Ta. for now.}

sickness sucks

~rala-flytrap-gator-o — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 10:56:16 PDT

_{yep I'm sick. I was worse last night,and Today i felt a little better but not much so i took some Medicine and i slept for like an hour now i feel better but I'm soooo hot and Kinda tired and extremely bored..so i guess i'll just be on here and horseland and howrse and facebook and other stuff.
