My fear, Bailey , CHRISTMAS

I havent blogged in a while but I'm starting again now! Well, I've been having some fears with riding horses. I was riding friday and Saturday night and I rode one of the horses named Sirlap. He is an flea bitten grey Arabian. Friday night I rode him and I just did pole bending,barrell racing, and walking around the arena. I finally had the courage to lope. Then on Saturday night I did the same. I rode him bare back just for fun and jogged him a little bit and I had so much fun. Sirlap has helped me overcome my fear.
Bailey is a horse I rode when I was little. He is a pony with an additude. Riding him is how I got my barn name. Once we were doing a jog or lope line and I kicked him just a little bit and he bucked! Any time you kick or squeeze him he bucks so his barn name is Bucking Bailey and my barn name is Rodeo because I stuck his buck. He is coming to the barn!!!! I am so incredibly excited. I can finally ride out of the arena with my friends and wherever else he wants to go. He is an exciting horse to ride too.
We all know Christmas is just around the corner. It is actually just 26 days away. We are putting up our Christmas tree today and mom is putting her Christmas china up right now. Christmas is my favorite holiday, not because of all the presents but it is Jesus' birthday. My favorite part of Christmas is spending time with family and friends,looking at lights, and Christmas trees and decorations. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas!
