Milton Freewater 4H Horse Show 2009

In April Kylee competed in the Milton Freewater 4H horse show. She did great.
She makes showing a horse look so easy, but believe me it isn't.
We had beautiful weather for the day. We're back at the trailer getting ready for the afternoon when she will ride in the English classes.
She brought home 5 medals for placing as the "Champion" in 90% of her classes.
Kylee is on the right with a couple of her friends that she has shown with for many years.
(No they didn't plan to dress the same)
Kylee won High Point Horse showman for the day and received this huge trophy.
Jessie (one of Tayler's close friends) was able to present the trophy to her so that made it extra special. The rule is, if you win the showmanship class of your animal, you have to compete in the MASTER SHOWMANSHIP class. That means she has to show a steer, dairy cow, horse, sheep, pig, and goat. Hilarious! We don't have a clue how.So Kylee went to the animal barn and found friends to help. I was so impressed with how many people were willing to jump right in and give Kylee a crash course in showing all the different animals. She had two hours to learn.
This is Rhett, who she knows from FFA. He is REALLY nice and knows a lot about pigs.
Then came the steer. We learned it burns your arm to show a steer because you have to hold their head up for so long.
Jessie shows steer each year so she was able to help.
Off for the next crash course on sheep.
This is Taylor M. who won the sheep showmanship class.
Learning how to make your sheep "brace" against you is hard too.
Then comes the goat. They are the easiest to move since they seem so small compared to all the other animals.
Last but not least, the dairy cow. Isn't she pretty? Reminds me of the silver Brahma bull I once wanted.
Okay, the MASTER SHOWMANSHIP class is underway just 12 hours after we started this day. Sheep were first and Kylee did pretty well...
Next came the pigs. They are the hardest because they just run away from you all the time. Kylee was happy that the judge asked her a question that she knew the answer to; thank you Rhett!
Next is the steer. Kylee did really well (the kids that helped her sat nearby and they were commentating for me). Next, the goats. They seemed calm and basically knew the routine, so the kids just had to walk by them and keep their eye on the judge.
One thing I learned is that they are to keep one hand behind their back all the time. I like that Kylee is having a blast doing this.
I only got one picture of the horse part of it because her horse was a pain. He had never done any showing before and was very young (which means stupid). It was a real challenge but Kylee got points for taking him because the judge asked for a volunteer for someone confident with horses to take him.
An hour has passed since this class started and Kylee is still smiling. Now it is time to finish up with the dairy cows.
I thought it was interesting how all their sizes varied here. Look how big the mama on the left is compared to this wild little baby in the center. She kept leaping into the air.
Today was the most fun we have ever had at a show and what an experience to see Kylee and her friends work together. Fun! I hope she qualifies to do it again next year.

I loved all those pictures but what a busy day! Holy cow! (Ha!) I showed pigs for a summer and it is hard, sweaty work but well worth it. Good job Kylee! I need you to teach me how to "show/herd" my children now, please!

It is hard to believe that anything [B][URL=http://www.mbtplus.com/]mbt shoes sale[/URL][/B] so inherently ugly as the MBT shoe could ever catch on [U]mbt shoes clearance[/U] with either the younger generation or the fitness fanatics but it has. [B]MBT shoes[/B] The shoes or I suppose they should be called trainers have thick curved soles and wide straps across the front. Currently [U][B]footwear etc[/U][/B] the are available in over 20 countries and have sold more than a million pairs a year. Considering that they have a price tag of around $200 it is even [B]mbt shoes clearance[/B] more remarkable.

MBT shoes, which stand for Masai [B]mbt sneakers[/B] Barefoot Technology were invented by Karl Muller a Swiss engineer. He [B]mbt shoes clearance[/B] suffered back and knee problems but on a trip to Korea he noticed [U][B]mbt sandals[/U][/B] that after walking barefoot through paddy fields the symptoms were relieved. With further [U]mbt walking shoes[/U] research he discovered that the Masai tribesmen from Kenya did not suffer back problems [B]mbt shoes best prices[/B] and had perfect posture. Putting these two facts together he decided that [U]mbt shoes cheap[/U] the answer was because they were walking on soft surfaces [U]shoe for worked[/U] which yielded as they trod on them. This [U]MBT shoes[/U] was unlike in Europe and America where we tend to walk on firm surfaces such as sidewalks.

The first MBT was manufactured in 1996 and soon [U][B]mbt shoes review[/U][/B] became popular on continental Europe. Since then many celebrities have [B]mbt shoes best prices[/B] been seen sporting MBTs. The concept basically is that the [U][B]mbt sneakers[/U][/B] curved sole creates instability as you walk, which [U][B]mbt sneakers[/U][/B] mimics the effect of walking barefoot. To counteract this the foot uses muscle to counter this [B][URL=http://www.mbtplus.com/]mbt shoes sale[/URL][/B] and creates a natural body training effect.


As to the question of whether they [B]mbt shoes sale[/B] are worth the money I suppose this has to be a personal judgement. If [U][B]mbt shoes review[/U][/B] you spend long periods of time on your feet then you may [U]shoe for worked[/U] benefit from them. However, if you are someone [U]shoe for worked[/U] who just goes for gentle walks to keep fit then perhaps a [U]mbt shoes review[/U] good pair of conventional trainers at [U][B]mbt sneakers[/U][/B] half the price will be fine.

When we buy something, we are always [B][URL=http://www.pandoraforyou.com]pandora jewellery[/URL][/B] thinking that it had better never become devaluated. The one piece that never loses [U][B]tiffany jewelry[/U][/B] its value is always what people want most. Sometimes, the one [B]pandora jewelry[/B] piece would raise its price [U][B]tiffany[/U][/B] with the rise of money. Here is recommended the pieces that [B]pandora jewelry[/B] would always be treasured - Tiffany. The watches, bags, bracelets, necklaces. There will always be a classical piece in all the categories [U]pandora bangles[/U] of Tiffany.

First comes to the tank watches which [B][URL=http://www.etiffanystore.com]tiffany co[/URL][/B] are the favorite of a lot of people around the world. Of course, just like other [B]tiffany bracelets[/B] kinds of watches, Tiffany watches have both man and woman [U][B]pandora jewelry[/U][/B] style. No matter what kind of style [U]tiffany jewelry[/U] or color it is, the tank watch always has its classical features. The tank watch is called one [U][B]pandora jewellery[/U][/B] of the very important objects in the world.

The watches have the [B]pandora beads[/B] unique shape and "favored by all" watch bands. The mixture shape of geometry [B][URL=http://www.etiffanystore.com]tiffany pendants[/URL][/B] and art gives the tank watch its lasting value. Women with the [U]tiffany[/U] watches look more professional and modern [U]tiffany rings[/U] while men with the watch seem more [U]pandora necklaces[/U] approachable.

Also, there is the famous bags which are one [U][B]tiffany bracelets[/U][/B] of those things that women want to put into their closets. Although [U][B]pandora[/U][/B] as time goes on, every year each brand will have its display of new [B]tiffany bracelets[/B] arrivals, the bags are always put at the [B]pandora[/B] most attractive places. Not only because of its nice style but also because of [U]tiffany rings[/U] its functional usage, the special bag becomes one of the classics.

As y'all might have noticed, I will do whatever it takes to [B][URL=http://www.tiffanyfree.uk.com]tiffany necklaces[/URL][/B] weed out the most popular and chic jewelry around, even it takes traveling to [U][B]tiffany necklaces[/U][/B] very warm, beautiful areas like the island of Siesta Key in Florida. In fact, I'm even staying an extra few days here [U]pandora uk[/U] just to make sure that I absorb as much information and style as humanly [B]tiffany rings[/B] possible (either that or I'm simply not interested in journeying back to the cold tundra that is New York City). Either way, this is the best way for me to [B]pandora uk[/B] report back to you all the excellent styles that are pervading the fashion scene for the [U]tiffany rings][/U] spring and summer of 2009!

If any of you saw the 2008 romantic comedy, Fool's [U][B]pandora uk[/U][/B] Gold, I'm certain you found yourself frantically Googling Kate Hudson's Palm [B][URL=http://www.tiffanyfree.uk.com]tiffany[/URL][/B] Tree Necklace to find out where you could get one just like it. The palm tree necklace was popular last year, and is still flying [B]pandora jewellery[/B] off the shelves today. There truly is something appealing about this shining sterling silver and cubic zirconia necklace with its intricate palm tree design. Of course, we're all aware that [B]tiffany pendants[/B] the palm tree necklace that Kate wears in the movie is the real Tiffany & Co. version, which is made of diamonds, but unless you [U][B]tiffany uk[/U][/B] are also a multi-millionaire like Kate, you probably will also stick to the inspired [U]tiffany rings][/U] version.

On top of various forms of palm tree jewelry, I have [U]pandora[/U] found a bevvy of starfish, seahorse, and turquoise and coral-colored jewelry in the many boutiques and shops that Siesta [U]tiffany pendants][/U] Key boasts. Look for two-tone starfish jewelry as a big hit this spring and summer, as well [U][B]pandora beads[/U][/B] as the Tiffany Inspired Anchor Necklaces, which is another fan-favorite. It also incorporates a [B]pandora jewellery[/B] sterling silver and cubic zirconia design that is nautical and airy for the [B]tiffany pendants[/B] warmer weather.
