Event Rally 5/9/2008 - 5/11/2008

This was our first real rally. It was a 3 day event and Krista was one of the youngest riders out there.  This rally was held in Tryon, NC and Krista had the time of her life.

The Barr Family helped us by allowing us to use their horse and by transporting Snickers to the rally.

She was on a team with 3 older girls and they all helped Krista get ready and she loved helping them with their horses too.


Darbie and I walk her horse back to the barn.
