Thank you for all of your well wishes, support and help. It was truly a team effort :) Monica and Sandy helped me with my tests, Tina schooled me on keeping my nervous energy in check, Kathy was my cheer leader and emotional support... Sarah was the video queen, Jen and Terri cheered us on with Kathy reading tests and of course Tracie busy coaching and teaching lessons running back and forth between DWEC and GMF. And of course Martha and Fritz... what a tremendous gift from the the owner and breeder and from the half human super hero horse Fritz, a.k.a. "Fritzy", "Princely Boy". I feel like the luckiest person on the planet. Our barn is truly a place where anything is possible it seems. I am every day in complete gratitude that Martha allows me to ride this very special horse. There is only one Fritz.
Being overly paranoid on Friday night, I checked Fritz quite often... I thought there has to be a better way and so I created "Fritz TV". On Saturday night I hooked up the baby monitor and camera so I could watch "Fritz TV" from the trailer and know he was safe and sound all night. During one of the night checks, he was laying down in his stall. He let me come in and love on him and he nuzzled me-it was quite a special moment.
I will post pics and some video tonight. Thank you, thank you, thank you :) See you at GMF!
Lisa, you two look so cute!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS on your show rides. I hear you looked very poised and that Fritz looked relaxed and lovely. Way to go!
