Today we attended the first ever Mustang Festival at the Bar T Ranch in Pittsboro, nc. Let me be the first to tell you what a great bunch of people the Thomas Family are. They hosted an awesome event for the North Carolina trainers to showcase their EMM horses, raise money for the trips to Tn and allowed local horses to come in and showcase their talents. They had in hand, pleasure and free style classes, as well as many childrens activities throughout the day. They also hosted the Bar T Trail challenge, which was very fun, many trail obstacles, and a race based on time and horsemanship. I would recommend them to anyone, they do Natural Horsemanship and are truly wonderful people. We are so excited to watch the Thomas kids compete in the EMM in TN.
Aztec was truly a crowd pleaser during Brocks freestyle performance. We are ready to go to the EMM, but certainly not ready for the auction ,and to put him on someone else's trailer at the end of all this is heartbreaking to me. Our family has truly fallen in love with him, and he is something very special. He has qualities that you will not find in most horses, and has more heart and try than any other horse we have ever trained. Guess that is all for now, we will update a few more times before the trip, and for those who cannot be at he EMM we will update during the actual show that weekend so you all can follow along.
Thanks to all those who have donated for the Aztec fund, it is greatly appreciated!
