May Update

So I am soooo done done done with another semester of college!  It was my toughest semester yet and I am so glad to have it under my belt and done with!  I thankfully passed all my classes, which is all I care about.  Let's put it this way...I feel I know I learned a lot more and know a lot more than my report card would say.  I worked hard and studied hard but sucked at exams.  Oh well, it is sooo over with!

Now I am home for summer!  I spend time with Daisy and the other horses everyday and its so much fun!

This last weekend my family and I took Erin to State WHSET on the horse Betty she has had the privilege of riding since saying goodbye to HotRod.  Erin and Betty became such a great team over the last few months and kicked a lot of butt!  We are all very proud of Erin and Bet Bet, and so thankful for the kindness and help of Betty's owners.  Erin made it to state in all five of her individual events and in one team event.  At state, Erin did very well considering the fact she was competing against the state's best riders.  Erin placed in the top half of most of her events at state, which is something to be proud of! 

Erin and Betty and their medals from the district meets! 
I think Erin has five or six medals on in this picture!


This summer I am going to take one online summer class.  It is Human Development 403, Families in Poverty.  I am two weeks into the class and have already learned a lot!  It is interesting and should be very helpful for gaining a understanding of poverty in Royal City and surrounding communities.  I like learning!


Here's to a good summer to come!
