Here is a picture of Summer at the Brookside show winning her halter class.
Above are a few of our favorite pictures...and here we have Summer at her very first show in 2006.
Summer is pictured above at her first show for 2006. The show was a local benefit show and was tons of fun for all that attended. Summer was the only Welsh at the show and she was a great hit with everyone especially the kids. Most of the day she had a large number of kids flocked around her. In the above picture Summer is standing with the little girl that kept trying to convince me to give her "that beautiful pony." Summer earned a 1st and a 2nd in the two performance classes she was entered in as well just to make the day an even better experience.
Above is a picture of Summer at her first Welsh show of the season. Summer started the year with double first Sec. B mare, Double Grand Champion Sec. B, Supreme Champion under one Judge, and Champion Adult English Pleasure. We could not be happier with this first show of the season. Next we are off to the Oregon Gold show in Roseburg.
Summer's second show was another great success!! We just attended the West Coast Welsh Show and had just an amazing time getting to visit with everyone. Summer again took home top honors with a First and Second in a huge class of 3 & 4 year old B Mares. She then went on to earn Sec. B Mare Champion and Res. Grand Champion Sec. B. Summer was also the Adult A/B English Division Res. Champion.

The Santa Barbara Show was lovely as usual and Summer had a lovely showing in halter with double first and double Res. Champion Sec. B Mare.
We had another great show in Eugene OR. Summer was double first Sec. B Broodmares, Champion Sec. B Mare, and Grand Champion Sec. B. Summer also did extremely well in Adult A/B English earning the Division Championship after a three way tie was broken by a ride-off. Summer strutted her stuff on her individual work and in the word's of the judge, "Won her heart!!!"
