And the Name-That-Foal Contest $100 Winner Is...

[chrissymack]

So for fun we thought we'd run a Name-That-Foal contest for our first foal!
Win a $100 gift certificate if your suggested show name is chosen!

The mare's name is Pinehurst's Icebreaker, a big 17.2+h bay hunter.
The stallion's name is Nevada, a 16h chestnut w/ lots of chrome

The name will begin with "Pinehurst's ____________" ...beyond that the sky's the limit!!

Enter as many names as you'd like; names can be submitted to our barn website:http://www.PinehurstStables.com/breeding


Here's a little photo journal for fun, now that we're getting closer to due date and will start really seeing changes; may give you some ideas! See the photo album here: http://community.webshots.com/album/562754841isDqxY

Today is day 320.
