SASSY IS HERE!!!


This morning I woke up to a phone call at 4:45 saying my horse was almost here! So I threw on some clothes, picked up my friend (who generously decided to come along) and went to go meet her in the 9 degree weather, but it was all worth it because my girl is finally here.

She is settling in really well and I saw her 2 times today:) Things are looking good:)

UPDATE

So my schedule is different once again. Scratch the algebra class (it was too easy) and add public speaking! I am glad to finally have a schedule and to be able to start to develop a routine.

My horse is coming out next week which makes me VERY excited and happy because we thought she wouldn't be here for another 3 weeks or so :) I'm ready to have my friend and my passion out here, which will be wonderful. I am going to be keeping her at a stable called Little Glen Stables, which is only about 5 min past the LEC barn. Here I will be working with a hunter/jumper trainer which will give me more of an opportunity to jump more. At the same time I will be riding at the school in my riding class, the IHSA developmental team, and hopefully periodically with the ICTA team. I am looking forward to going to the ROLEX competition in kentucky, which for those of you who don't know is a HUGE 3 day event with stadium jumping, dressage, and cross country. I've been told a ton of horse affiliated companies are there giving out bunches of free stuff as well as many shopping opportunities and the opportunity to meet many famous riders!

I am really enjoying the church I am going to! Its called Trinity and I go for service and a college aged bible study (after service). The church has been really beneficial for me not just in my faith but also meeting some other christians my age that live in the area. I am working on getting to know more people that share the same beliefs that I do.

Overall, everything is going quite well! I would love to hear from you too! jules_loves_horses@yahoo.com
