If I am honest, being at the Quiz was the last place I wanted to be that day. There must have been other kids who felt the same as me and actually stayed home, as our C group of competitors ended up having four members in total. In the end, it worked out for me, as it meant I was able to move on to the National Quiz last fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quiz was not my strong event in Pony Club, but I enjoyed going to Nationals so much that I really wanted to try my hand at going again. This year, I prepared and studied for our competition more than I did last year. I felt really good knowing that when I placed first in both my individual and my team, I had gone from last place to first place over the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am only sharing that because I want other kids to know that sometimes it takes being in last place to fuel your fire to climb to the top. I studied hard, and it was worth it. The next time you don&#8217;t place the way you wanted or things don&#8217;t seem to be going great, don&#8217;t give up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5637.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5637-scaled.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5637-scaled.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5637-scaled.jpeg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5637-scaled.jpeg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5479.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5479.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5479.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5479.jpeg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nicolemarie.photo\/ainsley_lynn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5479.jpeg?w=1536&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, Fal is home from the city and I really am so happy to have him back in the pasture where I can selfie with him, every single day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Love, Dolls<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alberta North Region Quiz Unfortunately, when I attended the ANR Quiz last year, I was feeling really under the weather.
