Sorry this is late again, Busy week.
Wednesday
Wednesday was ticket rally which is always a but boring but I got the stall card I wanted so yay!
Thursday
Thursday was Junior Graduation so I went there at 6;30 in my dress reds to help with decorating and making the snacks. That was a fun night. I got to serve the lemonade and accidentally spilled it all over myself by leaving the tap on lol. And I got free cookies which is always a plus.
Saturday
Saturday I only had Crimson but I still came a little early. I had Hoover again , but I think I'm starting to warm up to him. First drill I was 1-4. Hoover did not like that tight turn during out on Big Circle but I manged and the drill went smoothly until Star. It got a a little sloppy. Next drill I was 4-4 (big surprise there) and that drill went really smoothly. Last drill I was 1st section point and we had a little halt ho but we finished our drill strong. Then I watched Royal and went home.
I am in my fifth year of Westernaires if you can believe it. My past teams have been T5, J6, White Knights, Gauchos, Glory Riders, Nighthorse Rangers, and I am currently on the Red Division team Crimson Rangers.These are my personal experiences with Westernaires so please enjoy or learn something if you can.

New Tenderfeet! 9/12/15
So I live right by the Harvest Festival parade my morning was hectic but fun and I saw all my White Division friends. At 11 I left for batons and got to use my new ones, yay! We did our best without Aimee and worked on our drill. I had Hoover again for my ride. We work well but we still don't have a strong bond. Warm ups were a bit interesting since we moved into eights and sixteenths. First drill I was a 1st section point which was simple and everything went well. For the second I was 4-4. I really have that position that down lol. That drill was pretty smooth as well. The last drill I was 4-7.I was super nervous for this spot since we had to cut during Mariner's Cross. The cutting went well but I didn't get to my spot in line quick enough but I it worked out anyway. I watched Royal then took Samson and Maverick home.

Tons of Improvement! 9/5/15
So I had batons at 11 and a lot of people were absent but most of the Red girls were there. We worked on our drill for Annual. So far it's looking pretty cool. We start with one baton and then we go into a quick pixies drill into fire, hoops and knives. We haven't worked out that part yet. We also do the can can! Gotta practice those kicks lol. I had a quick drink then I headed down to my ride and I got Hoover again. I was a little nervous for this ride after the last two. Turns out I had nothing to worry about. All three drill were great. First drill I was American. The last two I was 4-4. We didn't finish the last one because we had a halt ho because Betty kicked an owner horse and the girl had to take her horse out. After that I watched Royal and then took home Princess.

Slightly Better Ride 8/29/15
I had a Mandatory JI meeting at 9:00 which was just a few reminders and the top 10 JI's for hours. I'll probably never get on that list lol. Espescially with Pink Ranger Training around the corner. After that I had a break and walked down to get my horse. Ugh. With my luck I got Hoover. I'm hoping after Annual at least I'll get someone new. Hopefully before. First drill I was 3-6 but something got messed up and they're was no 3-7 and no point replacement came but I was too shy to call for one in case I was wrong. That made it confusing during Salute lines and out but I went with it. Second drill I was 4-4, a familiar position, with a familiar person.That drill went okay. Our stars and spin off need work. A lot of our team was frustrated with each other which lead to arguing. We really need to work better as a team. The last drill I was American and we had halt his because our points couldn't latch on to our wings correctly during star which lead to more arguing. Second half was because of Bandit's reins becoming unhooked, I hope we can get it together next ride. Then I took Nugget home for a friend who had to clean and I saw Bingo and had a lovely cuddling session. I miss that horse
Tenderfoot Induction 8/28/15
Sorry this is so late, school is busy. Anyway, for Tenderfoot Induction Crimson owners had to groom every. Single. Horse. We had to show groom and we couldn't leave until we had everyone. I groomed Cruiser, Sierra, and Witchdoctor. (And I got to cuddle Bingo but that's besides the point). The most horses someone has groomed is 7 and the least is one because the girl had Scarface who is extremely hard to catch. I went to Chic-Fil-Le with a few team members then headed home.
