Hi! My name is Caitlin Daniels and I am 13 years old. I love to ride my horses and especially
love to be in 4H!! I also go to horse summer camp, roller skate and swim in our pool.
I am beginning a new year in 4H/open and Junior Paint Horse showing with my very new horse!! His name is Rocket's Rugrat but we call him Cujo.I am so excited to start showing him~ We are driving way out of state to go pick him up this week! I cannot believe my mom found such an incredible horse! He's a Paint (of course!) and Jennifer will get pictures up very very soon, as soon as we get him home! So many things have happened in the last few months! Smokey went to live with a super nice family and they really love him! Honey, my mom's palomino, moved clear to Delaware to be part of a wonderful horse family there~Zip is still here in Florida and I will get to see him at the 4H and open shows since his new mom lives in Orlando! Rocket is now bred to VR Master Tommy(my mom is SOOO thankful to Shane Connelly for her help!!) and Leno, our '02 colt by Beater Straw, is weaned and being trained by me and my mom. He is so grogeous and SO cute...today he stepped into the horse trailer for us and he got lots of kisses for this! I am in the 8th grade this year and really like my school. I am still doing LOTS in 4H, but also have a lot of fun in Junior APHA and with my new horse, Cujo, my mom and HER new horse, Foxy Conclusion, we will be traveling more to shows out of state and working towards zone awards. My mom still rides and shows Silver, cause we love her so much. She wins a lot of halter classes! I would love to hear from other kids my age who like horses, 4H,dogs, music and sports. Write me at APHA_showgirl@hotmail.com. My mom gets my mail for me, so it might take me a little while to answer back. Show results!! Silver Sands Bridle Club...Sept 14, 2002 HIGH POINT JUNIOR RIDER! Mom was HIGH POINT SR too! High point and a grand champion gelding at the open POA show Aug. 18 2002. My mom was high point sr on Foxy at the POA Open show! DPHC Zone 7 Paint show: WOW! My first big show on Cujo...we ROCKED!!! Won our western pleasure class, took TWO seconds in trail and a whole buncha other great placings!! I will get my mom to do this more formally but for right now... :)) Oh yeah, my mom got a 4th in showmanship with Foxy!! She and Foxy also placed in all their other halter classes too; nothing in western pleasure but Foxy was incredibly good and that is what counts with a 2 yr old mare! Bye!! |

This is me riding my mom's horse,2 year old
"Rocket" for mom at a schooling show in November '97.
Rocket's real name is Final Break, and she's two years old in
this picture. Rocket is now an old lady of EIGHT and has just foaled a beautiful foal by Beater Straw, named Beats Being Broke or "Leno" as my mom calls him!

This is me and Jessie, one of my German Shepherds. Someone
abandoned her in front of our farm when they didn't want her anymore.
Jessie was a keeper, and the only one we kept after 17 years of abandoned dogs.
