Its Official - He's an Authentic Rider

Since we've been back from the Nations Capital, Jakes has been spending as much time at the Farm as possible. And loving it!  On Monday, Jill had a meeting with all the helpers which included Ride Time and pizza. Perfect!

During the ride time, Jakes had set up an obstacle course for everyone to try out.  They kept points and who ever got the most points won a farm hat.  Jakes mounted Milkshake, his current favorite buddy and off they went.  Shakes was full of himself and wanted to GO Go GO!  Next thing we see is Shake rounding a bend with Jakes off balance and heading for the ground.

For more details, check out Jill's Blog Post at Raise Your Dreams Farm



Jakes urging Shake into a Canter






Jakes is fine.  Once everyone did their jobs of checking him out, holding the horse and cheering him on as he walked out of the ring, the contest continued.

  2. Awesome! Miss Jill is perfect to be in charge at the farm/ Way to go Jakes too. I'm not seasoned I guess, I've yet to fall. (and I too, get scared in the canter!)
