Cassie's New Baby - Finally! 5/9/08
My World Cassidy finally had her baby this afternoon. We thought she would have the first foal of the year, but she was fourth. After many, many trips to the barn to check on her, she delivered! We have a brown jack foal, and we are naming him Gorgeous George after our brother-in law and neighbor, George Gladding. Gorgeous George is a reddish color, and is put together very well with straight and square back legs. He is really gorgeous.

Baby, Baby, Baby! 4/29/08
The first foals of 2008 have arrived and they came in a hurry. Assphalt Acres Alison (Extreme x Ali)arrived on the morning of April 28th. She is a beautiful, light sorrel and is Ali's first offspring. Then it was Assphalt Acres Silence (Lucy x Red Rocket) that made an appearance just as I was getting home from my office. She is a tiny, dark sorrel. Around 3:30 in the morning of April 29th, a jack foal was born (Gypsy Rose x Mojave). We purchased Gypsy Rose at the Great American Miniature Donkey Sale last July. She was already bred to The Elms herdsire, Mojave. We are calling this guy Andre as he was born on Andre Agassi's birthday, although we can't decided on what color he is. Three babies in less than 24 hours. That is exciting.
