Hey...
When I read your blog the system wouldn't let me log on... That's why I haven't responded yet. We are going to decorate Miles' stall for Christmas. My mother has some really cute, non spooky, ideas. I rode Miles last night for the first time in a week. That was the longest time I had gone without riding him! He was really frisky and the whole lesson (after warm-up) we worked on jumping and landing the right lead. There was the awesome instance were I bended Miles right as he jumped and he curved his body the correct way and landed perfectly, right lead and everything. My instructor said that he had never seen anyone my age do that like that! I gave all the credit to Miles, he deserved it.
School is getting harder so I am having trouble balancing but there is no way I am going to cut back on Miles time. It snowed on Wednesday!! We went and saw Miles and he looked all cozy in his blanket and stall. I had been thinking about riding but the instructors suggested that I shouldn't because of the weather. When I rode last night, Cathy noticed that Miles had a cut on his leg. She said it wasn't bad but I had to put on this icky medicine. Miles did not mind at all. During the lesson he lost a bell boot twice so I am going this morning to buy new bell boots and the medicine for cuts because he has been getting a lot of them lately. I am hoping for a blanket for Miles for Christmas and a plain bareback pad. It is very uncomfortable to jump bareback with no pad... but it is still fun!!
So my mother does this thing called advent elfs' and every morning we get a little present. You will never guess what I got for Miles!! It is a Santa Hat with ear holes and reindeer antlers on it. I'll send you a picture. For Christmas I got ribbon to tie my barn gifts with. It says "Merry Christmas from Emma Grace and Miles" I think Cathy really likes Miles. All of my friends are obsessed with him. They are constantly spoiling him with treats. I think their own horses get jealous. My instructor Evan likes Miles a lot. The first time he saw me ride Miles he thought Miles was 6-7!
I guess there is nothing else to say.
Bye
