I can not stop grinning today.

My goal for last year was to successful jump round a 75cm trailblazers class and we failed miserably at the end of last year - when we were eliminated at our first attempt.
After eight months of jumping lessons and practice at home - we entered again last night - and we got round!
We had two run outs at the second part of a double, which was my fault not Raymond's, third attempt we cleared it! last fence and then we were home.
He jumped his socks off - and was calm in the ring - after a fairly scary time in the warm up arena when he was more than a little excited. I really could not be happier ! Looked at the 85cm and thought for the first time - yeah we could do that ! so maybe in another few months we will be having a go.

I bet nothing will wipe that grin off your face today. Congratulations on meeting one of your goals, onwards and upwards.

Well done, I know how you're feeling - see my little jumping superstar thread. Its good to set yourself goals no matter how small. When you achieve them its great and you can set the next one. As kitcat said, 'onwards and upwards'!
