Show Team Clothing Order Update

The 2008 showteam clothing order has officially gone to press. Thank you to all of you who got your information and checks to me. The order is scheduled to be completed on or around December 4, and I will go to pick the items up when they are ready and then bag them up by family. I'll let you know when they are available for pickup in the Livery Office.

Happy Trails,
Jeannene

Windsor and Gus

Just wanted to share one of my favorite pictures of Windsor and Gus. Even though there's a lot of pipe paddock, I think it really shows their different personalities.

Plus I'm just trying to teach myself more about how this blogging thing works.

Jackets, etc. update

Hi Everyone,
Thank you for all your orders for show team clothes. The orders will go in on Monday and I will let you know when the clothes will be ready. You'll be able to pick them up in the Livery Office.

We were able to give a gift of $400 each to Samuel, Pablo and Jaaciel--so a big THANK YOU to everyone who contributed. The guys do a wonderful job at the barn AND they have to live away from their families for much of the year. So it really means a lot to be able to have that extra money at Christmas time...

Enjoy the beautiful day.
Jeannene

Show Team

     Hey Everyone it's Mattie Fritz here! I'm really excited to be on show team this year! There willto have a fun time.  I know there will be some challenges (like getting on from the ground on Oprah for instance) but  I know I'm going to have LOADS of fun! If anyone has any advice I'm happy to hear it. I'd love to enhance my knowledge in horse back riding.  I have to know.

 I'm extremely overwhelmed and eager to get going and compete in shows with my buds right beside me. But, I will have to practice... ALOT. Can't wait for our next meeting (or lesson)!

            The new member,

                     Mattie (Mati, or Matay ((reffering to Gabby))) Fritz

Pictures from some lessons

Ok so I am pretty excited about this new blog thing so I felt like posting pictures.... I have sent these to a few of you, but to those I haven't, these are just of my group from past lessons. Everyone did a great job at the Halloween show and I will post pics as soon as I develop them!

How to Post

K, once you sign in you should be at your profile page. Under MANAGE BLOGS you should see Miwok Showteam 2008-2009 Season. Right below it is a blue blox that says New Post. Click it. :) Then type in your message and give your message a title. You can change text colors and add in pictures and even preview your post by clicking "preview" right below your title. (Add pictures by clicking on the square that looks like a picture next to the preview button.)
