It’s been a little while since I have updated everyone.  Unfortunately  Vitall  bumped himself getting off the truck a week before Aachen I was so disappointed!!! He had been going fantastic and I was even more excited to debut my freestyle. Aachen will have to wait till next year. Vitall is just coming back into […]

Vitall and I are busy putting our freestyle together for Aachen I am really excited about it. I chose music from a kids’ video game called Skylanders. My little nephew is thrilled as it’s one of his favourite games. I chose the music because it appeals to everyone, its light and upbeat but also dramatic […]

Competing in Aachen a few weeks ago was one of the most exciting and memorable places I have ever ridden. On last minute notice, I was able to organize to enter a National show at Aachen, Germany. Vitall took in the atmosphere really well. The first day I rode in all the arenas and the […]

Competing in Europe is not as big and scary as all of us at home think it is. It’s the same just on a bit of a bigger scale. Most national shows are only one day and everyone trucks in and out, and all the horses wait on the trucks between classes. In the beginning, […]

A few weeks ago, I was in Saumur, France visiting some friends, and on the way home I stopped in Paris. I had never been and always wanted to go. Paris was lovely, but it was just a short visit! I just walked through, and saw the Eiffel Tower. Due to a protest that day, […]

I wish everyone a happy, healthy successful New Year! I have a good feeling 2013 is going to be a good year. 2012 had a few ups and downs for me, now Vitall is back up and running and my youngsters are going well. I couldn’t ask for more. I am currently working on a […]

Vitall and I are back in training for the first time since a year ago, and it feels great! We have started training with someone new. It’s still new partnership, so I am not going to announce who my new coach is just yet, but so far I am really, really happy about what this […]

Vitall just had his final check-up this past week and he is A-Ok! He has been going amazing, feeling better than ever, and now we have the green light from his ultrasound showing that everything looks good and we will be back in the show ring in no time. I am so excited. Our piaffe-passage […]

Brr, Brr, Brr. It’s fall time already. It feels like summer just flew by. But Halloween is around the corner one of my favourite holidays. To my dismay Holland doesn’t celebrate Halloween. Nevertheless, Oslo and I will have to have our own Halloween party! This time of year, usually horse’s coats get dry. I’ve started […]

I had a fabulous time with my Mom, but a week just flew by too quick. We did all sorts of horsey things together like going around to all the different tack stores. Each tack store is always different. It’s amazing all the little nifty things you can find. Best part of our horsey week […]
