This picture was from last summer when I got the opportunity to be on one of the Grand Entry teams. It was an amazing experience! ]]> 2020-01-06 16:45:44 UTC https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428019198 2034707 https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428021029 Westernaires is a program that you have to graduate from after you graduate from high school. Because of my age and since I joined a tad late, I was able to skip an entire level. Kids are organized by groups/age, and currently I am in White Division. White Division has three levels, single A, double A, and triple A. I was in single A, but considering a few factors, I skipped up to triple A and now am on an amazing team called Blue Rangers! It is really amazing and I am incredibly thankful for every opportunity I get in Westernaires, and I am so excited for another year filled with amazing people and amazing horses! ]]> 2020-01-06 16:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428021029 2034707 https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428024231 Something not horse related I do is attend Warren Tech everyday. I go to the welding program which is so much fun, and I am incredibly lucky to be able to attend this program. I have learned oxyacetylene welding and am currently learning arc welding. It is a lot of fun and I am very thankful I get to learn this trade! ]]> 2020-01-06 16:53:32 UTC https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428024231 2034707 https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428028717 My big sister had a baby in October, and he has become such an incredible light in all of our lives! His name is Grayson and he is so precious, everyone is so blessed and thankful for his happiness and healthiness. Here is myself, my two sisters, and my sister's husband on Christmas! ]]> 2020-01-06 17:01:36 UTC https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428028717 2034707 https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428033209 I have a dog and two cats, and they are all so amazing! My dog, who I got when I turned 15, is named Lady Bug. She is an Australian cattle dog mix and she is such a good dog, she has helped me in many ways and I am so thankful to have her. I also have a beautiful cat named Sunny, and my little sister has a kitten named Max. Our animals play a huge part in all of our lives. :)]]> 2020-01-06 17:09:08 UTC https://padlet.com/2034707/aktepkau2yc8/wish/428033209
