Curly filly born just after noon today, August 7, 2026. Her mom is a mini, tobiano, palomino KRT25 Curly (about 9 hh) and her dad is a full size cremello QH!
I am going to call her *Little Bo Peep.
This filly is a full sister to my yearling smooth coat, Snow White.

*Jude - 2024 son of *Firesides Little Joey - a tiny bit of resemblence eh? lol *Jude is also a grand-son of *Sandman's Magic...

When breeding horses, sometimes things come full circle. Over the years I have had many horses born here who were sold to new homes. Occasionally, I have the opportunity to purchase them back! Well, we have done it again :) Please help us welcome home *Sunlight Serenade, aka *Sunny. She is a full sister to my much loved *Sandman's Serenade (deceased), their sire is of course *Sandman's Magic and their dam was one of my all time favorite horses, RJ Light Serenade (aka Mirage). Mirage was a purebred, registered Egyptian Arabian.

Well I think it is common knowledge how much I adore my Curly pony stallion *Firesides Little Joey. *Joey has a few offspring on the ground now - one of them is out of my all time favorite riding mare *Sandman's Serenade (*Sandman's Magic x RJ Light Serenade [fullbred Arab mare]). *Jude, This 2024 intact c**t is now rising 2 and I am looking to train him to collect this year.
I have a few photos of *Jude from yesterday, zooming around :) and one of him playing with my mule Easy (his maternal half brother).
I find this photo I find hilarious, the playing horses, but also the other mature geldings one on either side just sayin' "nothing to see here" LOL. *Jude had a fun time playing with all the other boys yesterday - some were more happy to oblige than others... but what really impressed me is that he came up to me after playing, still breathing hard.... but he was gentle, politely approaching and just looking for a little pat from me. *Jude has one of the BEST dispositions I have ever met in a horse, and at this point that is quite a few!
*Jude has just one copy of SP6 from his sire *Joey and *Jude does not carry a gait gene.

A couple more photos of my new ponies - they have names now! The Curly palomino pony mare (about 10hh) is now *Golden Girlfriend. Her 2025 s/c filly I am calling Snow White.
It took them a while to settle in but Snow is running around a bit now - like babies should do!

New arrivals today - thank you Jesse Alexander Legroulx from Equi Life Transport - ponies arrived in very good condition, happy and healthy - we appreciate you!
This is a mother/daughter - mom on right! Filly is 7 months old!
I think Jeanette Gladwin posted the kijiji ad that led me to this new acquisition! Thanks Jeanette!

I bred this horse! This is *I'm Top Hat - he was sired by *Icon of course, and he is out of my mare, DKH Lacey, I am going to include a photo of her with her 2025 filly, sired by *Firesides Little Joey. This mare has been an amazing producer for me - all her foals have been good, but *Topper was exceptional - I believe my filly is in the same category, time will tell.
*Topper is shown herr at the US Nationals in Las Vegas, he is going now to a competition in CA called Thermal 🙂 Curlies are also to be featured in the January issue of Horse Illustrated and *Topper's photo is in there too!
*Topper's owner generously shared these photos with me and photo credit must go to: Andrew Ryback Photography LLC.

An updated photo of *Jude - he is a long yearling now. Brother of my mule, Easy, son of *Joey, grandson of *Sandman!

My lovely ol' man, *Sandman - he was 25 in March 2025! He is doing great - still king of the farm!
