Specialties 9/5

My first class on Saturday was ropes at 8am. I got there at 7 and practiced for an hour before class even started. During class I worked on Step-Through and double spoke hop. Danielle also had a few others and I try drag hop with a 30ft rope. It was really hard. Then I had to miss batons because of Liberty. Since it's move ups my instructor let me go. I got Pepper! I was so happy :) I VAULTED BY MYSELF FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!! The class wasn't what I hoped though. We just played games and only did two half jumps and one full. We played a game where you had to keep a card under your thigh for the full jump and I did it!!! I was very proud. I have my phone next to me now hoping for a phone call.... we will have to wait and see! After I saddled Pepper I had a break until 2. I got TomCat for JI again! AHH! I was so happy. That little horse and I have really clicked. He's such a sweetheart. We played a lot of games because it was their last Tenderfoot ride. We also rode standard drill with them. It was super hard for me because I had on girl who could't get her horse to move and the other had count who was biting everyone. We played the boot game where they take one boot and scramble them all up. Mine got dirt stuffed down it and I had to sing my ABC's, cartwheel, and summersault before I could get it back. It was a very fun class overall. Then I raced to Vaulting and my partner had WitchDoctor. We got a leg up because he was huge!!!! He was great for vaulting though. We played games with the tricks and just had fun before we hopefully greet some new girls next weekend. So nervous for Liberty move ups!!! I want to move up soooo bad
