More mownted shooting

So. Som long time reeders may have noticed that ther has been a long time since mownted shooting.

This is do to a failing of Mom to have proper eqwipment.

In order to do shooting. You must haev two guns, and a fancie belt to hold em on your hooman body.

Mom has only had one gun, and no belt. For, like, forever. Thees things cost munnys, and munny is better spent on goods and treets for my Roxie mouf.

But now there is two proper guns, liek picsured:

And a belt is in progress.

And Mom is all "Hay Roxie, you gets to reemember how to ware ear plugs" which is no good becuz of I seriosly hate my ear plugs. >:(

And mom is also reefreshing me on my one-handed steering. With neck rains.

But any ways. Shooting may be happening more oftun.

That is all.

Lunge-ing

This is prepossterus.

Roxies do NUT need to lunge. Roxies is good and we will not do more bucking any more. Even if the possibility is there becuz we do have a giant new back sinch thingy.

Fooey on all this.

Baby Horse's reel name

Mom named the baby horse Sweet Potayto. I think becuz she is orange an kinda long.

Yeah, I sees it.

More trael amimals

So. After the Sproing Partee last week. I has this out of my Roxie sistem, I is all good on traels again.

So Mom and I goes out to our favrite trael and we goes looking for deers.

We finds TWELVE deers.*

(*ed. note - we found the same 3 deer, four times)

The traels is slippy and muddie and there is some spots of snow and icee stuff still. This causes false alarms of deer spottings becuz snow is white an so is deer bottoms.

But I is sooper good at seeing deers an Mom says i is a Very Good Girl.

Then we goes down one of the traels and I stops. And Mom is all "Steady, girl! Whassa matter? You smell somthing?" which she seemd to think was funnie for some reason.

But yes. As a matter of fact, I DID smell somthing.

So Mom trusts my Roxie Judgment an we turned around. And i sees more deer footy prints! Exsept that theese is HUGE.

And mom is like "uh oh."

And then we come around a corner and see this:

I is all "SCORE, this is a huge Horse-Deer!" but Mom is all "OH HOLY (doots)" and "Hay Roxie let's leave RIGHT NOW."

So i trotted away! Hooray!

So i shuld menshun that theese pics were not taken by us. Becuz of we were too busy bravely runnding away. 

And then later, when I is almost back to Roxie trailur. There is a encounter with a Loud Dog:

He tries to chase my Roxie Greatness, but that does not wurk becuz I just turns around like "Hay, Dog!" and it is all "YIPE YIPE YIPE RETREEEEEEEEEET!" 

So. All in all. A good day for weerd amimals.

HA it is SPRING and that meens Roxie Sproings

So, Spring is heer.

Ther is no snow onna ground. This meens it is time for me to reemember how to go on traels.

I is SO GOOD on traels. Except for the first time in the Spring.

You will recall the diffrince between my normal Roxie face an my Spring Time Trael Roxie Face:

Normal Face.

Ever Thing Wants to Eet Roxie Face.

So Mom is proodent an puts my Bob saddul on so she has a handy holder thing.

Do you see that thing on my saddul by my Roxie bridle?

That is a Horn Bag. Mom stuffs this horn bag fulla treets for me. Peppurmints in plastic rappers, mostly.  

. . . 

Theese Horn Bags makes unfamiliar crinkly sounds on my Roxie back.

The results is abowt like you wuld--SHULD--expect:

Mom stays on tho. 

And she is all "well at leest you isn't LAZY COW ROXIE LIKE USUAL" which is not relly very nice.

Clinic!

I goes to a clinic a little bit ago. I is pretty fuzzed up and out of shaepe, so I does only a liddle bit of jomping. I also does a hole bunch of trot poles.

I is The Best at trot poles. The trainer lady puts them on a sircle and even raises them to make them more harder, but I still shames all the other horses by being so good.

We does some jomping too, thru a thing that is a X to a one stride and then a bouncey to an other one stride.

I is SO GOOD at this, except for a small thing with wacking the first X and killing it some. But after this, I is grate. And this excercize makes Mom sit up an stop being a big lump thing.

Clinic: mission ackomplished!

Oh. Mulva the Roommate Horse goed and did a day too.

She kept runnding away with Mom. Heh. This all makes Roxie look like Perfict Roxie.

Crismiss updates

So. Happy Crismiss!

I receeves all the things I want. Namely, i gets more hay and even some alfs. And I gets a pan of GRAIN. And I gets a whole tub of peppurmints.

Theese kind.

These is the best ever. No other horses heer like these, so they is mine all Roxie mine.

I also gets a saddul but in truth this isn't a Roxie present cuz I have many sadduls already. This is a MOM present. 

It is a dressahzj saddle. But it is used unappropriately with Mom. I has only dressahzjed in it one time. The other times, it goes and works cows. 

You cannut see. But it is there.

And it also does unappropriate service when I pulls a skier person.

I pulls Mom on skis too. 

Ther is a hole bunch of peppurmints for me with this ski nonsense because I is so good. :)

Happy Crissmiss everyone!
