Celebration of the Horse

OCT 25, 2009

Last month, Kaybear was in the Celebration of the Horse parade.  Unfortunately because of the off-and-on again rain, I didn’t go with the little ones. So, hubby took these photos.

That’s my girl on the right holding The Traveling Trainer‘s sign. McKenna, her fellow riding lesson partner and friend, is helping her.

Posing with Jeanne.  Jeanie owns Meins, the Appy she is leading here.  Somehow this woman is gifted at winning raffles.  She won 2… two Appys in a raffle contest by the Appaloosa Museum.  I need her to buy ME some raffle tickets next year!

Hi, there, Meins, cutie!  You’re one good lookin’ boy!

There were all sorts of characters there.  Horses big…

I wonder if my landlord would let me have a miniature horse in my backyard?

And of course, there was every horse in between…

And you have to have your mounted police to lead the parade and keep the ruffians in line. You know how those horse people can get. ;)

It was time to line up and start this show.

Hey, baby!  Don’t they look like they are having a good time?  I think they were jabbering the whole time, though!

Looking good, Ann-Marie and Denise!

I’m looking forward to next year already.  Ann-Marie mentioned the girls would get to ride in the parade next year.  I can’t wait!!
