Jackie's show

My niece, Jackie, loves horses. She lives and breathes horses. She's just like her mother and me when we were her age. :) That makes us both so happy. She's been taking riding lessons for about a year. Two weeks ago, she was in her first horse show. She is only 6 years old, so she went in what is called the "lead line" class. Basically, someone leads the horse around while the little ones ride. Jackie rode a horse named Phoenix. He's a Mustang; not the most handsome horse ever (he has long ears like a mule), but he's gentle and doesn't get too excited being outside. Here are some photos I took. She looks so cute.
