Thurday's Ride!

I got to ride Navajo today:) It has been a while but it has been cold too and the ground has been frozen!! Well I went out and put the bridle on him and got on. I just sat there a bit because I have worked on getting him to stand still and he is doing it well..I still get on at times and just sit there a bit to make sure he remembers what he is supposed to do! Then after standing there a bit I told him to walk and we walked the whole way down the strip! I did some surpentines too. I then asked for a trot..We actually did a lot of trotting and also got him to move his hindquarters around! We even went in the field a bit too..It wasn't to long of a ride actually but it was a good workout for both me and him..Then I got off and walked him a while..he got hyper all of a sudden and I had to work to calm him down and then got him to do backing and more walking beside me..he did really awesome once he calmed down..Over all it was a wonderful evening.
