My Winner

Equestrian Girl might only be 13 but she's the most goal oriented and driven kid I've ever met.  Last year she set some pretty steep goals for showing her horse, Stanley, and she hit ever one of them.  Last night was the Michigan Paint Horse Banquet and my little girl was a big winner!

After getting her trophy belt buckle for #1 in Youth Trail with Daddy.

Posing with the belt buckle and looking just a tiny bit smug.

With our friend Sheri and her big belt buckle win for Novice Amateur Champion.

Along with the belt buckle, Equestrian Girl got the pink garment bag below for Reserve High Point Novice Youth Champion and the green chaps bag for #2 in 13 and Under Western Pleasure.  The other things displayed were for various other classes where she placed in 13 and Under and Novice Youth.

Next year her goal is to be #1 in our zone of Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky, win the Championship for Novice Youth, and make top 20 in the nation....I sure hope I can afford to help her do it!!
