) While in Oklahoma, she worked around the farm with Jessy, feeding the horses, cleaning the barn, and working with the 13 year old Granddaughter on her home school work. It was a nice visit all around. The Highlight of the trip was a horse show they planned to attend, where there would be a special event for the three of them. Three Generations of our Gals, showing three Generations of Jessy's Horses. My son-in-law ratted them out and the Ring Announcer made a big deal about it. "Mom, Daughter and Granddaughter in the ring in this class, three Generations of women from the same family, showing in the same class.... raise your hands ladies."
The stands broke out in applause for the gals.... "We aren't done yet folks... they are also Showing three generations of the same bloodline.. Mom, daughter and granddaughter...." He chuckled "Raise your ... ah, tails ladies.... "
The crowd just about fell out of the bleachers.
(Really, If you wanted to get technical... four generations. The Granddaughter of the mare was pregnant.
But they didn't tell them that, it would have gotten really confusing... 
)It really was a great day for Jessy, she won a First and a Third,
My Granddaughter got a third and a Fifth,
Miss Tina got a third, (which wasn't bad since she hasn't shown for twenty years, and ... never seen the horse until she flew in the week before.)
She was showing the flighty pregnant youngest horse.
The big deal was Jessy was awarded Grand Champion for the year, on points. (Last Show of the Season.)
She was so happy that her mom was there to see it.
Tina was invited to sit in the judges booth, and later was asked to Assist in the judging of several classes based on her background and experience. The head judge agreed with the calls she made and her recommendations for placement. My Gal's still got it.
She had a wonderful time.
However, she is glad to be home safely and I am glad to have her back. It was too quiet here without her and I missed her.
