Colleen Rutledge posted the cutest picture EVER on her Facebook page yesterday, and I just had to share. Here’s the caption: “What do you do if you are 5 years old and have to go while riding? If you are our daughter, Ciana, and have the best pony in the world, Cool Whip, you just get off and go while your pony waits patiently.” Oh to be 5 years old again and have a pony named Cool Whip. Keep being awesome, Ciana.
Of course, the big news of the weekend is Rebecca Farm, where Samantha has been diligently bringing us excellent coverage since Wednesday. She’ll be hopping on a plane this morning in order to arrive in London in time to attend her grandmother’s birthday dinner tomorrow night. While I’m just as bummed as the rest of you that we won’t be seeing her beautiful pictures from the show jumping, I think we all have to agree that grandmas must come first!
We’ll still be bringing you all the news from the exciting conclusion of Rebecca Farm. And if you’ve missed any of Samantha’s excellent posts from previous days, be sure to check out our Rebecca Farm coverage page, which has links to everything we’ve posted so far. CCI2* show jumping starts at 12:15 p.m. MST, and CIC3* show jumping gets underway at 1:30 p.m. MST. Go Rebecca Farm!
