FINALLY I have another post. LOL ok, i'll move on to the update.
My friend Jessica came over this past Thursday to help me with Valentine.
The first thing we did was put Jess's lunch inside, and then go out to Valley. She worked with Valley for about 1 and a half ta 2 hours! She used a Clinton Anderson (i think) halter, lead rope, and stick thingie (I still keep forgetting what it's called). She lunged Val with the halter some. Valley didn't seem to like it very much. LOL.
She also worked on picking Valley's feet up, (i'm scared to, because she kicks at me).
She did pretty well. She picked up on the flexing very quickly. We fly sprayed Valley and Chloe. Valley acted up some. Jessica did some other stuff with her, and when we finished with her, me and Jessica started to clean the barn some. Well, TTUL
Love,
Sarah

The horses paw and prance and neigh,Fillies and colts like kittens play,And dance and toss their rippled manesShining and soft as silken skeins;...~Oliver Wendell Holmes
