Lesson with Lisa

I had a great ride with Lisa yesterday. She thinks Mason is adorable and fancy! Who can blame her? lol. We were working on much needed up and down transitions. It was a bit harder than usual because Mason was pretty tired. I guess he never really got worked 6 days a week!

Exciting news! Lisa mentioned to me that she is taking Marissa and Rocky to Flatlands 3 phase schooling show on July 1st. If Lisa doesn't take Jericho she said I can come! I'm super excited I actually might be able to show off farm this summer! But I'm not going to get my hopes up yet. Also I should mention to her that Flatlands fills up super fast and opening date is next week!

So after my lesson Kate, Finn, Mason and I went on a little hack. It was nice to get Mason out in the open with another horse. Soon I'm going to go out back by myself and see how he is.

There is a jumper show this Thursday and I'm thinking about doing it, crazy right?! Well I'll only do it if I can get a QUICK trot to canter transition and if I jump at least once before Thursday at a regular height. I don't want to go out in the show ring chasing Mason into the canter in front of everyone! I'll only be able to do 1 class since the price is now $20 per class! So my plan IF I go show is do either 2' or 2'3. I have a feeling I'm going to help set up so I can see what the course looks like, if its inviting and easy I'll try it. Of course I'll have to do the stuff I said above first. Gotta show off my new pony at some point!

Today is Mason's first day off. In 4 hours I'll have had Mason for one week! Crazy how time flies!
