Seeing as not many comps on at the mo, have you got a pic that sums up your year?

[Kokopelli]

This thread has cheered me up glad I ventured over here!
Lauragrey- Your face in the winning picture is fantastic it really shows hw much it meant to you

Here's mine with Koko as the highlight of my year was buying him, the lowpoint was loosing him though.

I also jumped the biggest fence I have ever attempted this year standing at 1.40, I know not big for many on here but I was chuffed with myself and the pony

Sorry about the size of pictures

Love everybody's pics. I have to cheat and have 4 that are my favourite.

The first is from this october having a flat work session with Judy Harvey courtesy of your horse, which is out now and we are in it She was so much help!! photo from my mums phone!

then som schooling at home over sj's, he has always been a good lad, but I have learnts stacks, and all the pennies are starting to drop!

Then competing in August at Smiths Lawn, just a cool pic of him and my sister being in stride, just before my test

and finally at our last event of the season at Broadway and it chucked it down just as I left the start box!

Hope you like!

This pretty much sums up my year:

- Amazing trip to WEG
- Buying my first reining horse
- Competing in our first Green as Grass and Rookie competitions
- Selling my last competition horse to the best sort of home for him and seeing him settle well
- Buying my second reining horse - spot the addict!
- Getting adopted by a vagrant cat, lol

What a fun year!

Loving this pic, maybe we should swap horses for some jumping fun round Edinburgh equestrian sometime

Caz you would love him He's a sit and wait horse. He panics if you put pressure on him so soft hand, supporting leg and let him work it out Great fun But does like to take strides out here and there

 

[Ginn]

Not much to be said on the horse front but have gone from being desperatly unhappy doing a PhD to being a newly qualified teacher and absolutely loving my job and life again!! This year the plan is to get the riding going again which I now feel I can do as my head and personal/work life is so much better

 

[Lainey123]

First gallop in over 2 years, was soooooooo happy.

 

[chrissyc]

One of me and the hairy one on our last xc session before he did his hamstring in he's well ok now though

 

[falaise]

There are some fab pictures on here!! Well done eveyone

I haven't worked out how to put pics on yet :S

 

[RomanyMayday]

ok so better late than never

This was taken at the pony club championships this year. I have always dreamed of reaching the championships but never thought it would be possible. I have had my boy since he was 5 and we have learnt the ropes together and this year we have finally clicked.

 

[falaise]

Think I worked out how to do it. Both pics are of my boy Wally who I've had for a year, was his first season BE this year and he took to it amazingly, in one year we have achieved BE Foundation points, BSJA winnings and a couple of BD points - needless to say I am sooo pleased with what he has acheived

 

[KevinA27]

A bit more than a year but huge gains. Bought Caffrey 18 months ago with me being new to riding

And this was a couple of months back

Would never have thought it possible, but loving every minute and looking forward to this year.

[sw123]

Can I have a few
This is my favourite pic, my beautiful lovely Tog (grey)who has been off work lame for over a year, hoping to bring him in at the end of Jan to see what he's like but here he was just happy and looked like my Tog, not the one who was spending so much time on box rest - probably made things worse but he was smiling!

Spider - our homebred superstar, this was at his first CCI* what a smart happy pair they make

Jumping

And our little Millie Minx winning a novice at Keysoe after a year off - shes cool!!

 

[samandcasper]

COR hes a stunning horse xx

Spud's never going to be a mega distance horse but him and Kerry did their first 50km in October and I was so proud of them:

And then me and my yearling, Wolfie, went county showing for a bit of life experience and he met monster trucks and prams and ice cream vans and all sorts and we didn't disgrace ourselves and came home with two fourths:

 

[Zijdeglans]

Finally reaching Advanced dressage with Charlie! We trained the whole year and just started competing Advanced in September.

Billy's first competition year, very proud mummy!

 

[Tinsel Town]

My First dressage test, and we came 5th!!

Me afterwards very pleased as he was such a good boy!

Some great photos on here. None from me competing this year, as I've mostly ridden like an ejit, and the others are copywrited.

This is from a lesson I had in the summer; she felt as keen as mustard and I was trusting her 100%:

Just a shame numpty rider couldn't recreate it whilst we were competing.

And one from the beach. Good times!
