Woody on his quest for glory

Yesterday we spent most of the day sitting in terribly uncomfortable seats watching the horse show. The classes with more than 6 horses are a lot of fun to watch, as the riders have to pay attention to not running into other horses, as well as make sure their horses are doing what they’re supposed to. There was one 5 gaited class with 13 riders, and it was really exciting! The classes with 2 or 3 horses were boring, and the ones with only one horse should have been canceled!! Really, what’s the point?? It’s not like there’s going to be a surprise winner.

 Bentley is moving so fast, he’s just a little blur!!!

Bentley’s class, Roadster Pony to Bike was last night. He was looking so cute, but he broke into a canter during the road trot. There were 9 ponies in his class, and he still managed to come in 6th. The ponies that took 1st and 2nd place really deserved to win; they were really cute! Woody’s class was last night to, but the less said about that, the better. He did not have a good class, and his owner did not have a good ride at all. I think she had a case of nerves, and it really effected her performance.

There is an apparel company set up here with a suit I really want to buy. It’s so expensive though. I’d look like a million bucks in it, but I’m really trying to avoid the temptation. I think I’m going to crack, though, and go ahead and buy it….

We all went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner yesterday (Jen’s suggestion!), and Tom was very nice and paid for our dinner. I feel like a mooch, however, since I hardly know them….

Magic Mountain shared the same parking lot, so Jen and I ran over there to see if they had DDR. They had ITG, but the machine was broken! It’s been broken for 2 weeks, the guy told us. Two weeks! I guess music games aren’t that popular in Ohio….
