And this....house is on the way to riding. Talk about a hillbilly place! In the summer, they all sit under a tree in their yard (what's not pictured) holding a fly swatter. No joke. See the part of the shed on the far left of the picture? Often when we drive by, we see the guy standing in the open doorway, watching us. It's weird.

Randomness
Underneath my top layer of hair it's all afro-y and curly. If I don't blow them down straight (which takes a lot of work!) they stick up. So I rarely pull my hair back cuz they pop out. They're horrible!

Friends helping friends

"YAWN!"

"Who? Me?"

"Say cheese!"

"Maybe they can't see us...."

"Atchoo!"

Sports I Have Done Over The Years
Over the past few years I have played certainly my share of different sports. The sport I remember earliest playing was T-Ball. I don't have any pictures of that, but I have pictures of the next sport I did--soccer, which I started in kindergarten.
Me in my final season of soccer in Spring 2004. (I'm in the front)
I tried swimming. But I CANNOT I repeat CANNOT swim under water without plugging my nose!!!!
I did volley ball with two friends for a week long day camp. I really liked it!--Until the ball banged into my face and after one day my wrists were all red and swollen form bopping the ball around.....
I'm on the far right. Look at all the balls laying around. Laying like bombs, waiting to slam into my face! (just joking ya know!)
In 2005 I took a horse back riding day camp. I liked it! And totally fell in love with that horse. Her name was Flash.
A few months after that I joined my friend in figure skating. We were good. Good considering we were only like 11 and 10 and only one of us had lessons! We were doing actual jumps and stuff! I'm the tall one. (Oh, for you who have never met me...I'm tall. 5'6 1/4'' to be exact! Luckily I'm about done growing....)
Just weeks after that skating pic was taken, that girl moved. I had no one else to skate with and just...stopped. My mom had me back into horse riding. This time a tad more seriously too. I love it!
I started taken private lessons. I switched to an English saddle so I needed English riding clothes. Aren't they cool! They are sooo comfy!!!
I did dance for a school semester. That was fun!! See the girl on the far right with the head band? I'm the one next to her in glasses.
I kept riding until we moved from CO to VA a year ago. It took us awhile to find a new riding place, but once we did I loved it! The place was much more focused on jumping than dressage. My first lesson I was cantering over 2 feet jumps. Which is good since I had barely cantered at the the old place!
Me on Frankly Awesome (AKA Buddy). He was such a dorky horse. I love him!
Me on Frankly Awesome (AKA Buddy). He was such a dorky horse. I love him!In August, my parents signed Trevor up for soccer. I was thinking about when I used to play and wanted to do it again--plus everyone I know from church plays on pretty much the same team. Any of you who know me personally know it's not like me to go out and try new stuff. But I asked my mom if I could sign up too. We had practice after practice and then our games. We won all but 2. And only lost 1. We tied one too.
Our team is the Rams. I play defense, sweeper and mid field. We have 13 people on the team--7 boys and 6 girls. I'm the youngest girl....and the second youngest on the team but I am the tallest girl. Thankfully all the guys are taller than me--except one and he is younger so....
Our team had the best defense and goalie in the whole league. I'm the second from the left. I still ride, but at a different place. This place is jumping too, but they focus on showing and competing.
So, all of you, what sports have you done?
