Today JC, Trinity, and I attended Laughing Bear Live in Cedar Ra[ids, Iowa, a benefit model horse show for Lynn Fraley who is battling cancer. We had a great day together, and we won a few ribbons, too!
A view of the show hall.
A judging table with my Scojeadon (Parr's Dream Doll) and Cee Hunt (Okie Rio) resins. Cee took second and qualified for the national show and Scoj took third.
We got our first ribbon in our second class - Sweet Abby took sixth in a class of 26 OF Breyer Appaloosas. (Recognize the name? I have had a Breyer named Sweet Amy for years, so it was only natural that I name a model after Abby.)
Lazy River took second in a huge class of OF Breyer Missouri Fox Trotters and qualified for NAN.
A local baker donated a cake for the showers to enjoy. It was delicious. JC and Trin loved how it was decorated.
Dartagnan placed second in the Resin Other Spanish Breeds class (which qualified him for NAN.)
JC shows off my OF Breyer Clydesdale, Gorgeous George,who placed third in the Clydesdale class.
A reserve championship! Ring the Bell won the OF Breyer Gaited Pony class and then was reserve champion of the OF Breyer Gaited class.
Trinity bought this little Breyer Quarter Horse lying foal and then placed second in the OF Breyer Other Breeds Foal class - another NAN qualified piece!
The pony packs I'd made earlier this spring worked very well, but I did not have enough and need to make some more. I'll do that later this summer.
We won 26 ribbons and eight horses qualified for NAN, plus JC, Trinity and I had so much fun together, so I'd call my first show in nearly a decade a success.
