So last night when I went to bed the news was all "It's going to snow tomorrow but not till noon and only 3 inches." So I was all yeah, ok. And I went to bed. Then I woke up at 9 (hell yes school vacation) and it was snowing. A lot. Seriously, do I need to bring back the winter memes? So I was all sad and laid around in bed depressed-like and then said screw snow. I mean, I bought a car with all wheel drive this year, I may as well use it. So I got my act together, got dressed, and drove to the barn. It may or may not have taken 20 minutes longer than usual, and there's a chance I slid right past the entrance.... but I made it.
At least the barn entrance is all winter-y and cute. When I'm not sliding by it.

So after skiing down the driveway and parking I went to get Molls, contemplated putting a saddle on, and figured why bother. I mean I rode with a saddle yesterday AND Saturday so we were due for a bareback ride anyways. Molls was good, despite winning ALL THE RACES.
Note: there weren't actually any races going on.
All in all she was a good girl though and didn't even flick an ear at the snow falling off the roof. Then again it's now such a common occurrence I think they're all immune to said noise. She was strong and I really need to put her back in the double (I've been slacking) but oh well. We can deal with that tomorrow. One good thing is that I really think I ride better bareback when I do with a saddle... mostly because I'm forced to actually ride and not just sit there and wait for a miracle to put my horse together.
After the ride Molls was obviously really exhausted.
Then she realized I brought her jelly munchkins. Molls loves jelly munchkins.
Don't forget to enter my contest!! Thanks to all who have entered already, I'm so excited to find out who wins :) Also if you have mentioned the contest on your blog don't forget to add a link so I can count you for an extra entry.
