PLAY DAY FOR 4 HOURS! Le' gasp!


Hello everyone! i just thought i would make a post of what i did today...well first...i had a lay in and got Merlin turned out, and went up to the stables about lunch time well it was very hot and sunny which makes me in a more creative and playful mood then normal so as soon as i walked up the track i went in to the field called Merlin to the water trough and jumped on him!! dun dun daaa!! i was upset that i had forgot my cam! but oh well i had fun anyway! wile i he was carrying me around i kinda was crouching on his back (half standing up didn't want to stand all the way up!) which he was fine with, i really trust him and trust the fact i know i can A turn to stop or B jump off lol. after going around in the field i went into the school! i had polls cones flags barrels and a tire! sweeeet! Merlin who loves new things was like "cooolness!" and off we went...first we went round the poll maze!! and then we did a few laps of trot and a weave to find a carrot at the end :O and then we went t the tire and he stood on the edge..but it moved and he slipped which made him jump a little bit so before i try again I'm going to make a top for it so he can stand on the whole thing! neat! then we did stick to me from walk to canter to halt to trot to walk to halt to canter, and tried to do less and less each time and of course a odd backup! Merlin was great and had lots of itches for doing things, after being in there for about a hour i went and set down with him, i took his halter off and he just stood there with his head resting on my shoulder and he fell asleep! sweeet!! and then after that i gave him a very good brush as he was a bit sweat from all the running around, and then i went for a long walk and practiced my stick to me game by seeing how slow i could walk how slow i could trot then how fast! i also would back him up and then bring him in at a trot! was really cool and had a great day :)
