After the soccer game we drove to
Kuna to watch Sophia and Isabel who were competing in a "Horse show" .......their 1st! This picture is a bit blurry. Sophia was practicing when we arrived. She was in the 1st competition!

Here's Isabel before her competition!
Love that toothless grin!

Sophia was in a
competition called "Walk, Trot". There were 4 contestants and all but Sophia were adults. This was her FIRST Competition and she placed 3rd! She was pretty darn excited!

Here she is out in the arena, doing her thing!

She's trotting her horse "Sparks" in this picture. Sorry, it's a bit blurry again!

After they all went around the arena doing the commands that were announced over the PA system, they were told to pull their horses up in the front center of the arena for the placements to be announced. This is what Sophia is doing here. This is where they announced she placed 3rd out of 4 but we were pretty proud of her
cuz all the others were adults. She was in another competition with 6 others (all adults again)
and she placed 5
th.
Way to go Sophia!!!!

Isabel was in a "Lead,walk" competition and her
Gramma Ann, led the horse and Isabel rode.
This competition was all children.

After the competition, they all pulled their horses up in the center front of the arena and the judges came and spoke to each child individually! Then they all received a 1st place ribbon! It was pretty cute!

Here's Isabel, Sophia and Ann with the horse "Sparks" and the girls have their ribbons! It was fun to watch them horse around!

That is so cool. I didn't know both of the girls were into horses so much. That is something they will be able to excel in thanks to grandma Ann :0) Good for them for being so brave and competing!
Oh my WORD! She was beating adults??? Great job, Sophia!!! :-) And what a neat opportunity! Wish I could do something like that! :-)
Good job girls!
