CIRTS Benefit

Ruth and Anni rode Paris and Larry over early this morning. It is so wonderful to see Paris in such good health.

Whitney was still in season and covered by Valiant. Karin drove her car to the shop to pick up the new Horsemeister shirts and drop me off so I could bring Rhoda's car home. When we got back to the farm Emily was working Killian in the outdoor arena.

Sissy's new owner D'Anna and Tosha came over from the cabin where they spent the night to see what we have done with Sissy and work her a bit. We were all pleasantly surprised by how well Sissy did. 

Tosha ended up riding her in the indoor as the rain started up while we were outside. Sissy and her filly named Ravyn's Heart were soon loaded up and on their way to their new home in Oklahoma. Meanwhile Karin got all the manes and tails brushed out of all the mares going to the CIRTS benefit this afternoon.
We were the first trailer to arrived. I am so thankful for that 4 horse trailer that can fit 4 BIG horses plus 2 foals and still have a dressing room for changing. Ribbon, Jenis, Eliza, her filly, Zalena and her colt all fit comfortably.

The Friesian and Percheron demo was a fun skit starring Mitchell Cooksey as the Dark Knight on Jenis

Anni Davidovics as a damsel in distress riding Eliza

Mikayla Cooksey as the other damsel in distress riding Zalena

Hannah Reinhard as the groom and Noah Herman as Prince Noah riding Ribbon

The audience was engaged and cheered loudly for Prince Noah helping him defeat the Dark Knight. The Horsemeister vaulting team performed as the half time entertainment during the polo match. The video of that will be uploaded tomorrow. It is just too late tonight. Below are a couple pictures of them in their finery.

It was a very successful day
