Masters Thoroughbreds has always kicked off the season a week before Christmas with a local horse and pet show. This year was no different and nearly the whole neighborhood showed up. This here there was a costume contest, dog agility competition, cutest foal contest, barrel racing, freestyle dressage and cross country jumping.

The day was fun and everyone enjoyed the competitions. The results of the day are as follows:

Costume:

Chantrelle Riffin and Ditz as Dorothy and Toto

Dog Agility: Tie

Shawnee Fox and Shep
Benjamin Schmidt and Ralston

Cutest Foal:

The two day event was finished off with a large party which included a wonderful meal provided by Darris Teeter and his wife Brenda Koffi Teeter who own our local supermarket and diner, and a great show of A Christmas Carol done by the Crestview School Choir and Band.

Everyone had a great time and we are already making plans for next year. Isabelle and I are headed over to the Fox's for Christmas dinner in a bit and I know we are both looking forward to it.

Merry Christmas Everyone!
