OH MY GOSH everyone and combined last lesson post

i am so super excited because guess what came yesterday for me? a saddle no new riding pants nope a velvet helmet no no no and no . MY custom saddle pad finially came in and all i have to do now is give it to my stepmom so she can give it to her friend to be monogramed so i am so very excited its a black pad with double piping in red around the edges so i am very excited about that i will post a picture a little later(better find camara) and i have a group lesson this saturday with my best friends sara and josie and you no whats even better is that i dont have little kids in my lesson anymore so thats a plus. i am so sorry that i didnt post about lessons we rode down in the grass arena (dressage arena ) and did patterns and played simion says so bigen one the first round and got out in the first move in the second round and then josie and i where left and it was a tie and then we headed up to the barn and because it was so muddy from all the mud and snow so it was a mushy mess so neadless to say that gus didnt like this lesson because of the mud and so he refused to work so it was more like gus was riding me so that lesson was not our best so hopefully this weekend would be better
