Naming my Foal

Giving a name to our foal has not been easy . . . it is harder than naming our boys!!

The little girls, where our foal came from had named her 'Angelina' . . . I didn't think I could call her that, but I did like the 'Angel' part, and it seems to suit her!

So, with the help of some good friend on a message board that I visit regularly, I have narrowed my name choices down to two . . . "Shindeagan Angelfire" - this is just a nice, fancy name (Shindeagan apparently means 'beautiful star') or "Zips Cuttin Angel" - this reflects her lineage, and keeps 'Angel' in her name!

Her Sire is 'Zips Larry Two' and her Dam 'Not Quite Cuttin'.

What do you think?

Here we are . . . 'Angel' and me.

A New Foal

I have never had a blog before, but I thought it might be fun to start one.

Yesterday, we picked up our new foal. She is 7 months old, born on Oct 20th 2006. We are still thinking through names for her. She is a bay coloured QH, with a lovely temperament.

She is very friendly, coming up to me when I go into her paddock. She keeps going to the fence between herself and our other horses to try to talk to them. I think she will be a great little horse.
