Just 3 weeks until....

[Irish Hills Farm]

AMHR Nationals!!!

I can't believe it's almost here!!

I'll be there with I don't know anymore how many horses......

and Ernie Lambdin. Leeana will be helping us out

and Dana Saxton (Ruffian the Trouble Maker) will be there as well.

So, are you going?

 

[txminipinto]

UGH, I didn't realize it was that close. I mean, I did, just haven't done a count down so to speak. I'll be there with 4! And they're fat so looks like it's boot camp from here on out!

 

[Lisa Strass]

Of course, Mike and I are going!

We always have a great time at Nationals and it's only 100 miles away from our house.

I'm not sure what can top the "Cows with Guns & Western Cart at the Watern Hole Evening" this year, but I'm sure something will.

 

[ctinsley]

We will be there stabled with Ten-l Training. We have 4 going, was 3 but bought a new one this morning that will be with Ann Linze. Can't believe its time the summer has just flown by, see everyone there. Cindy

 

[minih]

We will be there!

Can't wait, we get to meet our two new ones there!

 

[txminipinto]

Ah yes, the "Cows with Guns" was highly entertaining!! Hmmm, I did hear a song the other day that yelled out "watch out boys, they're riding shetland ponies!!"

 

[Leeana]

Hmmm someone will have to explain the Cows With Guns & Western Cart to me, i have a few idea's..but i missed that one

.

Yes, three weeks ...three weeks to long.

Yes I will be there with Sheyl and Ernie and am really looking forward to it

 

[Davie]

Can't believe time is flying so fast. Still trying to get my new (to me) trailer ready and time is running short

Thank heaven all but one of my horses are with the trainer or I'd be that much further behind.

Will be so nice to see everyone again and catch up on what has been going on the past year and

I can't wait to meet OUR NEW BOY, MO!!!

Thanks Terri (Mini h) for allowing MO to come live with me and be the granddaughter new show gelding. Can't wait for next year.

Everyone have a safe trip and we'll see you there.

 

[minimomNC]

I will be there through youth and amateur but not with any of our horses, I am hauling for someone else. Its been three years since I have been so it should be fun to just get to watch it all.

[Irish Hills Farm]

Terri I forgot that I'll be meeting my new additions there as well. I can't wait to see your Curry kids. I'm picking up Curry's Playgirl - Jim will be showing her in Futurity.

and I'll probably take her in her yearing over class.

Than I'll pick up Martin's Mardi Gra Sunset from Mike & Lisa, and Sunset's full sister Sunburst from the Martins. And I'm also picking up a little AMHA weanling filly from a farm I have always admired.

 

[Erica]

Myself and the Watern' Hole gang will be there with bells on; provided we aren't totally exhausted.......I know Vickie's hauling 5 up and then has 3 with Larry.

I'm hauling my 11 up in my barn that I have showing, as well as I have two driving with Larry.........and I think at this point I have about 8 or so babies planning on going..some showing, some just going......6 getting picked up by their new owners or heading that way

So yes I have literally lost my mind, I'll be running 15 different directions.

Be sure and stop by we will be up in Barn B, next to Belinda........I think part of the crew is heading up Tues sometime; myself and Clementine and the load of horses will be arriving late Weds after she gets out of school and I get off work.....

Oh Lisa........don't tempt anyone, I'm sure we can top it by something

Yes 3 weeks, and I have so much to do....pack, wash, pack, work horses, pack, halter break babies, pack......would much rather be at home doing any of the above than sitting at work.

 

[Lisa Strass]

Hmmm someone will have to explain the Cows With Guns & Western Cart to me, i have a few idea's..but i missed that one

.

I'm sure there will be a repeat playing of Cows with Guns by Mark! Leading up to it... you'll have to ask Shawntelle or Mike for pictures.

Than I'll pick up Martin's Mardi Gra Sunset from Mike & Lisa.

Sunset is ready to go.

Would those be cow bells?! Yes, Erica, you have lost your mind!

P.S. Tell Linda to give us a call if she needs Mike's help on Tuesday afternoon.

 

[Filipowicz Farm]

Wishing everyone good luck and all of you have a safe trip.

 

[Mark & Sharon Bullington]

I can guarantee that "Cows With Guns" will be in my play list at The National Show. I actually played it at Congress, too but it was hard to hear it anywhere but in center ring. When the pigeons of Tulsa become apparent, they will be met with the song "Poisoning Pigeons In The Park" along with other assorted "goodies". Carin, you'll have to let me know the name of the song with the "riding Shetland ponies" line - sounds like it would be a natural for me to have.

I promise not to get sick at Nationals

[The Simple Life Farm]

Jimmy ans I will be there with our 6 kids. I am like Carin..... bootcamp for 'em all. We are getting up at 4:30 to exercise them, and I think I am starting to finally see a difference.

We should be in Barn D (Super Duty), so stop by for a visit.... can't wait to see old friends, and always ready to make new ones. Hope everybody has a very safe trip.

 

[Magic]

I'm coming!! Had a change of plans though-- instead of taking my own trailer, my horses will be catching a ride with a friend, and I am flying in (no driving for four days round-trip, wheee!)

I have only one horse showing, and she's with a trainer, so I get to relax and visit and watch the show. See you all there, and good luck everybody!!

 

[Leeana]

Not sure what barn we will be in, sheryl? I am looking forward to meeting everyone, if Sheryl if lets me out of the clipping / grooming stall of course

 

[Field-of-Dreams]

We'll be there with five! Can't wait, but I'd really like more time to work with my Futurity driving mare...

Lucy

 

[midnight star stables]

Me! Me! I'm going!

And I Still can't believe it! I've never wanted nothing more then to go to AMHR Nationals!

Please say Hi

I would like to meet as many people as I can.

I'll be taking...

Nirto: AMHR 35" B Perlino Gelding

Joy: AMHA/AMHR 33" A Grey Mare

And Joe my step-dad

HEY we are missing several smileys here.....Mary Lou, Mona, Carol?

Leeana, let you out of the clipping cell, I mean stall. HAHAHAHAHA Twice a day only, for potty breaks.

Just joking. We're gonna have a good time!

OH and I have no idea where are stalls are at. We'll find out when we get there!
