Young Event Rider
It's About The Competition
It's about discipline, perfection
The beauty of movement
Like poetry in motion
Moving in absolute harmony
It's speed, power
Racing across the countryside
The power of take-off
As we fly over each jump
It's about precision, agility
The race against time,
To run, soar, fly
Through the final course
It's about teamwork
Horse & rider as one
The thrill of competition
All eyes on you
It's about dedication
Early mornings and late nights
Riding in freezing snow and scorching sun
For that thrill, that dream, that goal
This is my life
This is me.

My Horses
It all started with Judy...
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Judy and I were together for 6 years, and we did everything. I learned to ride with her and I learned to jump with her. We played Pony Club games together. I even took a few spills with her and learned not to fall off. We won lots and lots of ribbons together. I really started to like English when I had Judy. Then I outgrew Judy and she went to Texas for a couple of years to live with actor Barry Corbin's granddaughter, Cori, who was a model... until Cori outgrew Judy, too.

And now Judy lives in Aspen, Colorado, with Carly.

So, I needed another pony, and we bought Stormy. I still have Stormy but let other young riders who are starting out borrow her. Stormy is THE BEST pony ever. She does everything and loves to please. Stormy doesn't do anything wrong! Everyone wants to have a pony like Stormy. We played Games, and Stormy even went to World Championships and played on the French team, who took 2nd place in World Games in 2003. Stormy is quite the pony jumper, too. She is getting older, but she is still the best.

I also wanted a paint horse to show with my friend, so we found Mr. Lucky Mac. I still have Lucky, too. Lucky is just like Stormy but in a bigger package; he'll do anything I ask of him. Lucky now events Beginner Novice.

Then, about 2 years ago, I got the Eventing fever and wanted a very competitive jumper with spirit. I found Risky, who was a former A circuit jumper, and she was a challenge at times. Unfortunately, Risky fractured her elbow and had to be put down before we had a chance at our Eventing career together, but I have very fond memories of her.

Which leads me to my current horse, Uptown Girl or Wonder. We bought Wonder in May of 2005 from my friend near Chicago, Brittany Meyer. We have only been together for a little over a year, but have had so much fun and have learned so much together. Pictures of our competitions are on my News webpage, but here are a few of my favorites.
