We got quite a shock today! The county agent called us at about 12:30 to make sure we were gonna be at the show barn today at 1 pm. We weren't planning on going anywhere today because everything was over for us. Alison had to rush to get dressed and Jeff and her went down there to see what was going on. I didn't get to go because my hair was wet because I had just gotten out of the shower. She had to be there because she had won Showmanship for the Horse Division!! We were so surprised! I didn't get to see her get her award!!! WAAA! Actually, it's just what she worked for the most. She put in lots and lots of hours working with Princess! Princess was probably the youngest horse there although I didn't see ALL the 23 horses. She got a belt buckle and a $200 scholarship for the local college here. It is soooo cool and I'm so thrilled that all her hard worked paid off for her.

I couldn't be happier for Alison. To be rewarded for doing something you have put so much into teaches her a great lesson; not to mention the excitement of being told you're the best! Congratulations to Alison (and the whole family) for the hard work.
