I'm so happy for you that she really takes to it and that it feels good.<br /><br />Funny that you mentioned the colour of the saddle looking good on your mare. I'm dreaming of brown tack for Evie and wether that will good on her. One day...<br />A couple of weeks ago I bought new boots/jumpers (?) for Naloma in a cool brownish/beige colour. They look really good on her. Hubs shrugging his shoulders and rolling his eyes, doing some tough talking about 'not caring about the colour' while I was trying to imagine the colour on Naloma's legs and if just black wouldn't be better, or perhaps darker brown... These decisions just take time you know! But if he needs a new saddle pad for Willem, it takes him about the same time, or more, to decide what colour looks best. Tsss. Men! ;-)Carolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288856854422999687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-18194039033081008452011-05-23T16:38:06.782-07:002011-05-23T16:38:06.782-07:00LOL.. at first I thought you were riding another h...LOL.. at first I thought you were riding another horse and were ready to trade yours in!

That's what I call them here when something affects my horse and he resists. You can't get the horse you want without them so I appreciate every one. Sometimes the timing of them isn't perfect but I appreciate them none the less. You'll be surprised how much this change in perspective will affect your riding and your patience too.

Glad you and Wa mare loved the saddle and had such a good time. I liked how your sister put it, each misbehavior is a chance to teach her something new and better. And to add new things to your tool belt. Great, I love that. I'm sure you can't wait for your own saddle to come in, what fun you'll have with it.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-53225907732092526702011-05-19T14:28:16.707-07:002011-05-19T14:28:16.707-07:00The saddle you are getting sounds amazing.

I think I'll get another ride or two in it before I form an opinion. I spent most of yesterday's ride just trying to get the right stirrup length.<br /><br />Gotta love those Cavallo boots, they do make life so much easier when you need some protection.smazourekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029180368325070266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-53011474769405779462011-05-18T06:48:33.189-07:002011-05-18T06:48:33.189-07:00Amazing what a tack change can do isn't it?
