The lovable guy~


Hi y'all! I love blogging! I have my own blog, but it is pretty pathetic and I seldom blog! Probably better that I don't, because I am stinky at writing. Well, I don't have much to write about except Toby. I can't claim him as mine like Clara can Oliver and Julie can Julio, but I love him even though he really truly belongs to Andrea! I feel so stupid right now because I am searching through an empty brain for some words :)
Well, I guess I'll have to begin from the beginning of my story with Toby. (NO ONE get your hopes up, here comes some grammatically incorrect mumbo jumbo)!
I started riding at Dorothy's about 3 years ago and only really rode Sharky. I began to ride Toby as the year went by. Toby has a very sweet, gentle, obedient and sometimes hipper personality. In one word I think Toby is very enjoyable. I have had my fears of horses, but ever since I rode Toby I felt like horses aren't out to get you, they are out to love and be loved. Sometimes I wonder how idiotic I must have been to think horses were so evil, when I meat Toby. My fear began when one horse, named Danny, tried to roll with me on his back.
Any way, last summer I was in my first horse show (Field days for 4-H) and I had a great time. I am really grateful to Toby for giving me his best effort and making me have my first show such a great experience, despite what a wreched mess I was the day before the show. I am not quite sure if Toby had the best of times; he had to endure hives and a small case of eeby jeebies! When all the ponies got home from field days they all were jumping 3 feet of the ground and bucking like crazy, Toby was definitely one of them!

  1. Thanks for sharing your story! And good for you, getting a blue ribbon at Field Days! I show driving a mini, but someday, when I find a good horse to ride (for instance, one that doesn't absolutely hate cantering, haha), I'd like to show riding, too.
    You know what I just noticed in your picture? The man in the black coat and woman with the umbrella on the right side are my parents, haha!
