I’m slowly starting to feel better after being in bed almost all weekend resting. I got up Saturday and rode 3 horses then went strait back to bed. Same goes for Sunday, I slept in and then took Oslo and Vitall for a walk. I started riding one of the stallions here, Double Diamond, I really […]
Jan is back now from Windsor. So back to training. It has gone really well this week, I’m really pleased with how things are coming together. We went through our first PSG test. I had to laugh at myself because I picked up a canter and it kinda hit me that I am riding a test […]
This week has been a great week for training. I feel like I have had a mental break through with my riding. Not a huge one but little things that have added up. Jan has been really helpful giving little bits of advice about riding tempi’s and pirouettes. Every rider kinda panics when it comes […]
Hay! I never want to lift another bail in a very long time. We had a huge semi truck come 24m long packed full of hay. It took us two days to unload the truck. It was a lot of work we were all pretty fed up by the end of it. I am fully […]
This weekend was one big party! We had a big barn bbq friday night then went to the bar in town because it was closing for the next month for renovations. Everyone had a great time dancing and drinking ’till 2 am. Needless to say, we were all a little tired starting work the next morning… I had […]
Jan has been away this week at two different competitions. Sara was competing at the Europeans and Jan also had a young stallion participating in the World Young Horse championships. Both did well! Sara placed in the top 10 out of 60 and the stallion placed 3rd in the B group. Tough, tough competion this […]

On Sunday my parents and I drove to Denmark to watch the Danish National Championships at the Danish Castle. It was standing room only and the Danish Royal family were in attendance watching their daughter Princess Nathalie ride the Grand Prix. The Royals were front and centre in the video of the VIP seating. Her Royal […]
It’s been a very busy week with everyone gone and lots of work to get done. I have been riding 4-5 horses a day which has been tons of fun. It’s been really nice having my parents here and my mom has fallen in love with the barn. We went up the coast just past Malmo […]
Just a note about my previous blog: in reference to the “bar” – that’s what we call our kitchen/hang out area. The temperature has dropped a fair bit compared to last week. We all have sweaters and rain coats on as it’s been raining off and on for a few days now. Thankfully I am […]
