semi private lesson

okay the title pretty much says it we only had one other rider in my lesson and her name was Sydney and we just worked in the arena and that was walk trot both posting and sitting and cantering oh and some riding without stirrups and then towards the end we hoped over the low setting of the cavaleties (sorry i don't know how to spell) and that was about it i mean yeah i never thought i would have to shut Gus behind down but yesterday i had to many times because all her wanted to do was get faster and i was like not gunna happen because i am the one that is going to set the speed of how fast or slow and he finally got it through his head so that was about it did i tell you that i only have a four day week this week because we are out Friday and we are having our once a year spring clinic and then on Friday evening Sara and Josie are coming over because we are celebrating my birthday like two weeks early and i cant wait and hopefully that is when i get my new phone because as of Friday night my phone died it wont charge so Josie i am not mad at you its just my phone died so don't be mad at me please i love you and you know that you are like my sister wait no your not you are my sister

Major news

Ok lesson where on Sunday this weekend and we started down in the stadium arena and we just did a little jumping and then we headed up to the main arena and we did a mock horse show and that just means that we had a fake show and Sara's mom was the judge and my instructor Mrs. Beeler was like every one canter except Megan unless Gus just rolls into it and so the judge calls out for us to start cantering and Gus was getting a little fast so i gave him the aid to canter and within two strides he was cantering and i was like omg i am cantering on Gus so we then transitioned down and went to line up in front of the judge and we did it again and then again it was time to canter and i gave the aid and he struck off and at the end of the lesson i won the silver horse shoe and i found out that i had only missed on of my leads i was so happy so that was the basic lesson
