My pony and I

 My pony and I
By Sonya

My pony Jazz at Games day.

The day I meet my pony Parikiore Just Jazz!!
The day has come, the time is here we all got up and could not wait. We were all hypo in till we got in the car. Dad said that we were going to Ashburton to look at the pony.
    So we drove down to Ashburton. When we were looking for Tracy's house she was standing outside wanting for us to come.
   I went with Tracy to get the pony from the paddock. She was in a paddock with dry mud everywhere with no food and old soccer, netball and rugby balls to play with.
She was beautiful. Tracy said that the pony's name was Jazz.
Mum grabbed Raewyn’s saddle from the car. We put the saddle on Jazz. She was very good with the girth. Tracy said said I could put Jazz’s bridle on. When Jazz was nearly ready for me to hop on mum said that I need to check her girth before I could hop on.
Jazz was a flaxen mane and tail flaxen chestnut with a blaze 4 white socks. Her show name is Parikiore  Just Jazz and her paddock name is Jazz. She is a calm pony that does not need to be pushed forward.
Tracy was doing inhand showing with Jazz. Tracy was canterbury in inhand showing in a low showing. Jazz has been to A&P shows with her showing.
Mum said that I could ride Jazz around the paddock. She was a kick-along pony. I asked Tracy for a whip, but she said that I just need to use my legs. I walked and trotted around and around the paddock.
After I had done my ride on Jazz, Mum hopped on and walked, trotted and cantered Jazz in a circle. When Mum was cantering Jazz she tried to buck, but Mum held her head up, so she couldn't.
I cooled her down and took her gear off, brushed and hugged Jazz.We had to decide if we were going to by Jazz today because there was someone looking for her on saturday. Mum and dad went off and said that they were taking the saddle to the car.
When they came back they said that they had some exciting news for me. I said ‘’what is it?’’ Well, we are thinking that we are going to buy Jazz for you! WOW!!!  Mum told Tracy.
We looked at the gear that we were going to get with her. Her gear that we are going with here is a bridle, a summer cover, an old winter cover, a new winter cover and her headcollar and rope. I wanted Jazz’s fancy browband
I put Jazz back into her paddock with dry mud. Mum arranged with Tracy that we will pick Jazz up from the show. That was good because I was going there to on Chrimar for a games
Tracy asked for us to send her pictures of Jazz and I doing things together. Tracy asked me if I wanted Jazzs main plated? I said I would like her main plated. With our exciting thoughts we drove home.
