2007 Mississippi State Horse Show

Last week was Andrew's 3rd time to attend the MS State Horse Show. Well if you count 2004, I was pregnant while I was there but didn't know why I felt so nauseated! LOL Andrew had the BEST time (I guess because he was with his granddaddy so much and around other cowboy's. This was also mine and his first year to actually ride our horse there. I was extremely nervous while he was as relaxed as can be. Me, my daddy and Andrew all won trophies so you can say we were successful. I got a 10th out of 42, 10th out of 36 and my daddy got 6th out of 59, 7th out of 36, and 4th out of 20. Andrew didn't place but he was the obvious winner!! We got to grill out, meet other cowboys, and hang out with old friends and family. Andrew makes friends with everyone he meets. Our official picture will be here in a few weeks with us dressed in our show outfits. It was a long week, but on the other hand, it went by too fast. Another year passed so quickly and Andrew is growing too fast. We are still recoving from all the really late nights (me and my dad showed one night at 12:30 & 2am). To sum it up, we had soooo much fun. And all those long afternoons (some at 100 F) of riding and trying not to give up were worth it and now I want to do ever better. I have realized that I enjoy the competition. So ya'll better watch out!!!!
