My human mum (Kyrie) arrived home from work on 23 December and promptly put warmer rugs on all her horses due to the cold, wet weather. My true mum (Eden) wasn't rugged due to being somewhat large with Yours Truly so Kyrie put Eden and her friend Layla in the stables. Due to Murphy and his "Laws", the sheep were in a stable due to having an appointment with the shearer the next day so Eden and Layla shared a stable and the Annex. Kyrie checked Eden and Layla about 11.30pm and again at 3am. The sight of Kyrie in her PJs at 3am probably tipped mum over the edge and I was discovered at 6.20am on Christmas Eve - a few days off Kyrie's estimation of 28 December.
My mum, "Eden Garnet", is Swedish Warmblood/TB - by Gibraltar II (RIP grandad) out of Shipside Sally. Eden apparently looks a lot like Gibraltar, but a little smaller, standing 15.2hh. She competed in dressage and eventing in her youth.
Eden - one of the few ridden pics mum has.
Gibraltar IIDad, Glenvar Meteor, is by Kilvington Scoundrel, out of Greenlee Prudence. I'm the FIRST foal from Glenvar Meteor - how cool is that??
Kilvington Scoundrel (UK): http://www.whaltonstud.co.uk/kilvingtonscoundrel.htmlI spent the day in the stable with mum but was allowed in the yard when Kyrie got home from work - it was fun exploring and stretching my legs. It was cold though, so Kyrie put us back in the stable for the night.
Kyrie was sure she was going to get a grey colt so didn't have any suitable names for me - I'm a gorgeous bay filly. Kyrie and her family decided they wanted me to have a name starting with "B" as I was born on Barry's birthday.
