New Tessie pics, New saddle, basic update!

[mandisue]

Well here are the pics of Tess in her new saddle, my tex tan I ordered sunday, that tack lady is AWESOME. Got it today, snow storm coming, but I carried it to the barn in a box to keep it from getting wet and sat on her in the barn..LOL. I LOVE IT> VERY COMFORTABLE and man is it light weight. AND it seems to fit Tess perfect. Now all I need is a new saddle pad, this one is fairly thick.
Don't mind my 30 inch girth on my fat horse.. I need a bigger one.

She's been doing great riding wise, has TONS of energy which if some of you will remember was my issue last year, I have her on red cell and it seems to be doing wonders. She's also got a considerable amount of more weight on her since fall which was good, because she was still skinny and I didn't realize it at the time til I look back now..
Update on me, this summer my moms 2 year old APHA mare is coming up , so i'll be riding her while DH rides Tess.

I am VERY happy I bought her, she is an awesome horse and I don't know what I'd do without her.


Also pic of Lane at his birthday party and his snow TUNNEL.
He's growing up too quickly....:cry:

So there's my big update! WB if this needs moved feel free, I figured this way I could roll it all in one.

OK I am officially jealous. You got a nice brand new saddle for half of what I paid for mine!

It looks GOOD!! :)

Seems to fit! :) Good work. I just love barrel saddles. I am NOT a barrel racer, nor was I ever a gamer, but I do love barrel saddles. They look good and they feel good. They're light weight and comfy. Good all around saddles IMO. Great for staying on buckers too. :whistle:

Looks good. We have already discussed the saddle pad;).
Give Lane a big hug for me and tell John he did good.
