Hey there ladies. Just had to share the happy news. Katie had her riding lesson this evening and she cantered. She has been riding now for 2 years and I have been waiting for this. Her instructor told me Katie was getting close, and tonight she decided to let her try. She did it for about 5 minutes and around the rink 3 times. OK, proud mommy shutting up now!!!

Is that when the horse does kind of a choreographed high-step, one front hoof up then down rhythmically? That can't be easy. Proud momma, indeed! Congratulations, Katie!

Not as fancy as that Donna. Its almost a run, kind of inbetween a run and a trot. Like that made any sense......lol. Either way she was going kind of fast, bouncing in the beat of the horse, controling the speed with how she squeezes her leg muscles, and staying on.

Way to go Katie! Maybe we'll be seeing her in equestrian events in upcoming Olympics!
