Sexy Lexi's Road to The Makeover

Follow Marissa's progress as she takes a wild mustang yearling and trains her in 90 days in order to compete in the 2008 Extreme Mustang Makeover in Ft. Worth, TX. She will compete against over 200 other trainers to take home the $10,000 prize. Quite a task for an 8th grader! She picked up her filly from Bureau of Land Management in June and has named her "Sexi Lexi." This blog will document her daily tasks, joys and hurdles as she travels down the road to the makeover.

More progress!

Sorry, been busy with other horses and her! So Lexi is doing good, loves her forehead scratched! She is starting to come to me without the pole for me to pet her. Tonight I will be going on to the next step with her, the rope. We will attached a long cotton rope to the pole and rub it all over her then let her drag it around on her back. She is getting better, but we have a ways to go. I'm hoping to have her halter broke enough to take her to this show on July 20.

But we have a ways to go before then! But I'm sure we can manage it!
