Another day of no riding. The weather went from *almost* bearable to freezing, windy and snowing in one day. Got to the barn late and even if we wanted to ride, it was getting dark quickly. Frustrated with the weather but I know it's just something we all have to deal with in the winter. Trudged out to get the boys and put extra blankies on. Aidyn stood like a gem minus a few mean/ugly faces aimed at Luke, the QH gelding who is on stall rest. Goober. After Jay got his extra sheet on, we said goodbye and headed to Target to check one thing off our wishlist: rain boots!

Aside from the fact that everyone on the planet has them, we "needed" them. Our daily treks out in the mud equal mud in our boots and all over our new half-chaps (when we get them!)...so rain boots were a necessity in our minds. I ended up with black and white "zara houndstooth" which is kinda like a cow. And Katie got a pair with whales on them. Ah, the small things in life.

So tomorrow is our day off from the barn due to classes (blarg), so Wednesday will be our next attempt to ride. Can't wait to use Aidyn's new breastplate! Until next time--
