Rode freedom in the field today with kat. Emily took pics! (shes putting them on my blog soon). Flat was great until we worked on bending and going round...that didnt go over well with freedom. He gave in for a little while but would start throwing his head around eventually. Hoping he'll be better @ it soon. Jumping was worse. he was jumping everything too big and we had no brakes ohh freedom, jumping in the feild makes him so happy he forgets to listen.

Showed freedom today. We stared of getting 4th out of 5 in our flat :/ Then we got 3rd out of 5 when he knocked a rail. 5th out of five when i hit my face on the saddle over a jump cuz freedom decided he wasnt going to listen. But we finished strong with a 2nd out of five. Im so proud of him considering he just started work again this friday night, and he hasnt jumped in the field since last year.

Freedom is still lame. I rode a pony named Abbey instead. shes normally a really awkward jumper, but i figured out tht if you stay in a half-seat the whole time shes sooooo much better. We jumped a couple of a different courses,she listened really well, and she did lead changes too! Hopefully freedom will be better by sunday, because we have a horse show...

..... I want to cry... Freedom was out in the feild this morning. Meri (my trainer) went to get him because the farrier was here to dohis shoes. When she went to get him, the other horse in the feild wanted to get out first so he (ty) kicked freedom in the kneee. His knee is so swollen and he cant be ridden for about 3 weeks :( hes in a lot of pain  and i feel so bad for him. 
Last night was awesome (: rode freedom with kate, he was an angel. We worked on inside bend and he did a great job! we jumped a few and FAILED @ cavileties!! ohh well he tried really hard. Then we worked on trotting and jumping in hand, it was hilarious
