Besty From Heaven OK Betsy is the dam to another one
of our mares, Stocking Stuffer OK. When Betsy came available
for sale, I wanted the opportunity to reunite her with Midge. I
was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this broodmare.
Betsy is not a people friendly horse, but she has made great
strides since joining our small farm.
UPDATE: ON MAY 15, 2010, BETSY SURPRISED US WITH A

Honey Bea Meadows Angelina Angie is the smallest of all our
minis, and easily the most spoiled. She represents the miniature
horse to its fullest potential. She has a bigger than life attitude, and
presents it in the showring. Angie has such a long thin neck with a
beautiful feminine head and big expressive eyes.

Stocking Stuffer OK (Midge) I have always wanted a true black
pinto, and Midge fulfills that dream. She has a powerhouse body with
the quietest of dispositions. She is the first to greet us in the mornings,
talking all the way to the barn. Her breeding represents some
outstanding horses, so we are expecting her to continue her show
career on top.

Ruffle My Feathers EGF Ruffles has so much spark and
showiness to her. She deserves a double take in the ring. She is highly
intelligent, and easily accepts any new task. She has such an elegant
head and archy neck. We are excited to continue her well advanced
show career. Ruffles has been bred to Shiner for a hopeful 2012 foal.

Big N Rich Fortune TAP (Cookie) came to the farm in 2011. I have been wanting a mare that pushed to 46" height limit, and
Cookie does just that. She has some long legs, and knows how to use them to obtain a huge trot. She has been
reintroduced to the showring in 2011, she is always a strong contender in the Liberty classes. She will continue to be
shown in 2012.

Aphrodite WAH (Didy) is a very refined and elegant mare. She is a fine example of an American Classic Shetland Pony. We were at
a friends house delivering a pony, and Didy caught my eye, and I convinced Glen and Edie Russell of Single "G" Pony Farm to permit
her to be a broodmare for us. She has been bred to Ridge for a hopeful 2012 foal, we are really excited to what this cross will
produce. We are expecting a bay foal, wide blaze, and great action, stay tuned to see if we get our wish.
