blog 48 family member

I have one older sister named Susan who is 22 years old.  When she was little she was really big into tennis.  She would always go out and play with my dad on the weekends.  But for whatever reason, as she got older she stopped playing and started up something different.  I don’t remember how old she was but when she was probably in 4th or 5th grade, she went to a summer camp where they did horseback riding.  From then on she started to love it.  When she came back she immediately started trying to find places near us where she could continue to ride horse and learn more about the sport.  She ended up finding a place and did different types equestrian and started learning how to jump on them.  She ended up getting really good at it.  She did this up until the end of high school.  After that she went to Miami University and decided to try out for their equestrian team.  She made it and was on the team for all 4 years while she was in college.  She participated in lots of events and usually placed in the top 3.  She now lives in Philadelphia where she works for the FDIC.  She works for them as a bank examiner and is usually traveling to different states every other weekend.  She really enjoys what she is doing.
