Tack store photo overload!

Hey Y'all I made it to Georgia!  Jess and I went to the Dover store first thing yesterday and it was amazing!
All the clothes

All the bridles

All the saddles

And even more saddles
It was horse girl Mecca!  My mom who makes me the luckiest girl let me splurge on some nice half chaps!
Hello lovely chaps that aren't made up of more replacement stitches than original stitches.
Before I left Canada we make two trips to 'Road Apples' a really nice tackstore outside of Halifax and one trip to a tack shop on Prince Edward Island (yes ladies I went to Anne of Green Gables land!).  The loot?
Gah, the cutest helmet ever!

Dream helmet!

Ogilvy baby pad, grey trim and the tack store embroidery!
Road Apples had some really beautiful things.
Not even away from the car yet and already drooling

Love the name

Woah $$$$

Brown Ariat boots

All the Tailored Sportsman colors!

De Le Coeur bonnets

Prestige bridles (not sure about the reflector looking and plastic trim)

More Prestige

Antares breastplate

Jin Stirrups
So many things to love!
Even more Prestige
 The store on PEI was smaller and not as fancy but still had some nice things and half the store was western.  It was way out in the country in someones side barn.  The owners are looking to retire and sell if anyone is interested in a big move!
Always smiling where tack is involved
So quaint!

All the boots!

Some nice bridles
No worries only three more pictures;)  We went to a shoe store around Halifax and they had all the Blundstones and lots of wellies.
Practical and cute

OOO la la
Yes a pair came home.
Red and Black

Woah!

So here I thought I would have all this free time on vacation to update my blog and keep all y'all in the loop.  HAH!  Not so much.  I keep falling further behind, I'm overwhelmed by the number of pictures I need to put on here...look me up on instagram @redheadlins (and my mom's @horselessinhalifax), lots to see there.  Canada is awesome, loved Quebec city, love Nova Scotia, love Prince Edward Island.  Love love love the tack shop near Halifax, Road Apples Shoppe (also on instagram tagged on my ogilvy photo).  I'm sitting here in the hotel with my mom and she totally just found a tack shop in Charlottetown to check out tomorrow, so excite!

Hey it's me, that girl

Yes indeed I am still around!  I've totally been lurking on blogs and instagram 0_o  Needless to say life has been crazy insane.
Yup, sums me up

I graduated!
Gotta love a school with a horse mascot

Diva was a pissy pissy mare this spring
Imagine her head and neck matching that tail
But we added regumate and some intense riding and things are getting better
BOOYAHH
My birthday came and went
Besties!

Mojito is literally breaking my heart
Happier times

The racehorses are doing amazing!
First race of opening night

My friends have been rocking it on their OTTBs
Helping out the sprinklerbandit

Watching Bacon and Alyssa

I leave in a few days to Canada for two weeks and Georgia for a week!

I'm planning on lots of catch up blogs while I'm off traveling and relaxing.
