Fun Run!

Brooke and Jade had a super time at this years Fun Run at school. It is the only fundraiser that the school does all year - so it is a big one!!! The school raised over $43,000!!! This was Brooke's 3rd Fun Run and Jade's first! Thank you everyone who donated!

 

 

 

 

2nd grade went in the morning ... but Kinder wasn't until the afternoon, so it was really hot by the time Jade ran (her face was bright red!) but they both had lots of fun!!

 



Brooke's 2nd Horse Show

This past Sunday Brooke had her 2nd Horse Show (two weekends in a row). She improved immensely in just one week, I think because she felt more confident and knew what to expect.

 

 

 

 

Below, Brooke with her riding coach, Hillary. We absolutely adore Ms. Hillary and her family, they are so fantastic with Brooke!!!

 

 

Brooke competed in 4 different classes. I could not be more impressed with how well Brooke did. She is an absolute natural and just loves it so much!!

 

Her first class was Halter and it was an all ages division, and there were 20 contestants! Brooke placed 5th in this event, which is a huge win!

 

She placed fifth in Youth Showmanship.

 

Brooke placed 2nd out of 10 in Western Pleasure Walk/Trot (another HUGE win)!!!

 

and, in Western Equitation Walk/Trot she placed 4th.

 

She did so amazing and we are so proud!!!

Here are a few videos from the show:
