Q was in town for a bit this weekend, and dropped by for a couple of hours to visit.  She had new boots and wanted to ride, but it was pretty rainey.  When it let up we ran out to the round pen, where Blaze was waiting.

At first we thought we were just going to pet her........

but it looked like it might hold off raining for a while.  Pinky hurried up and caught her Mace Windu.....

they posed for a couple of pictures.........

and rode off on an adventure!

We took Mace into the arena for the first time today.  Instead of using the trailer, we ponied him in behind his mom, Jedi.

The Thug drove the cart around at all gaits, first time she's ever driven faster than a walk.

After Pinky led Mace around the arena a couple of times for him to look around, she mounted up and followed the cart.

When they started loping, there was a worried face........

Still worried, the arena's pretty big............

At this point she gave up and admitted she was having fun.

And then they really let loose.

Move Shiloh over this way....

That's no good, get closer.........

Closer still............get over here!

Memphis, stop it, straighten your rump out..............

Pull her head around.........

Okay, that's better.......

Now, now, take the picture NOW!!!!

Man, it's worse than taking Christmas pictures of the kids.
