2014; Bring it on.

Am I allowed to call 2014 awesome 2 days in? Yesterday was my Dad's birthday so we went for a meal with all the family which was nice. Then today the first ride of 2014 happened. First Sparkie & Jack had their feetsies done, Jack was a bit fidgety but probably the bets he's been yet, he'll get there. Sparkie was also a bit fidgety because he's.. he's an arse. He will not get there. But he's cute, so there. After that me and Emma took Sunny & Jack for a hack.. I'm not sure if I'm more proud of the horses or us!!?? They definitely tested us and had a few moments but we just rode through it and dealt with everything no problems... puddles (Jack led Sunny through a puddle... WHAT!?), tractors, plastic flapping, horses running at them from both sides (Sunny was super brave and led Jack past them even though this usually upsets him!), sheep running alongside them, they both stood perfectly to be mounted from the ground (how did I get on jack from the ground? I can't even get his bloody saddle on nowadays) just aaaah so many scary things and they were honestly so, so brilliant! They had a canter in a huuuuuge field side by side and didn't fizz up or get excited..in fact they did the opposite, they both just wished to be walking instead, how old do they think they are!? Super, super baby ponies. Well played 2014, keep up the good work.
