Then at the last minute they threw in a pattern for my equitation class (which is all about how I look when I ride). I was terrified, because the arena was so big and those cones are so small. I wasn't sure if I would be able to do it or not. At 4H shows they do not allow me to use any devices to help me like walkie talkies. But guess what? I did it!! Not only did I do it, but I did it perfectly!! Storm and I placed 10th in that class.

Again, please don't think I am bragging, and I am sure some of you are saying 10th isn't that big of a deal, but to me getting 10th the first year that I have gone to the state show is awesome. It is a great accomplishment to be 10th in the whole entire state of Pennsylvania. And even if I wouldn't have placed, it is an honor just to make it to states with a horse. I was competing with the best of the best. Oh my gosh, I am still so excited. I'm going to give Storm the week off, and then it's back to training, because next year we are going to be even better!!

I also want to thank you all for all of your support. I really did think of all my friends on here while I was at the show. I didn't want to let anyone down.
