These reeds are in a pond at my barn. Once, one of my friends threw a ball for my trainer's dog, and it accidentally landed in the pond. We know that my trainer doesn't like it when her dog goes in there because it's so dirty, so we all ran after it to get to the ball before he did. Unfortunately, her dog is much faster than we are, so he got to it first. When he came out, he had a toad in his mouth, it was so gross!! He carried it around with him for the rest of the day.

After the equestrian season, my horse was kind of mad at me. She will usually come when I call her, but this time she totally ignored me. Luckily I had brought some treats, so I walked up to go get her. After holding out the treat, she jogged over, took the treat, pinned her ears back and spun around, the universal sign for "I'm going to kick you,". I knew what to do in this situation: I chased her until she ran around in circles at top speed!! It gets tells them that you're going to make them work no matter what, so they might as well just get caught.

This tree totally freaks out my horse. She doesn't like to go anywhere near it!! She hates the shadow in the arena when we ride. Sometimes I have to go out of my way to get off of her, walk her through the shadow and hop back on. This is especially a pain when no ones there, because the shadow is opposite to the mounting block, so it's like a five minute kind of deal instead of two.

With these photos, I had a lot of trouble finding the right angle. The sun gave it kind of a glare, but if i went the opposite direction my shadow would fall over it. After trying to lean over it, I decided the photos were coming out too dark. I worked with some shots of different single flowers, which came out okay. I eventually remembered though that I could just edit the photo so the glare wouldn't be so painful!! Duh!!

These photos are of my driveway. Once on my way home from school, I started getting kind of freaked out by all the snow and ice. I started humming Miley Cyrus' "Party in the USA" in an effort to calm myself down. Eventually I was singing and totally rocking out as I carefully stepped down the driveway. By the time I got to my house, I was full out belting it.... Then I realized my mom's boyfriend was home... Oops!!
