Jet and Fire

This is Fire, Jet, and Rose is behind Fire. Jet and Fire will be on their way to Midland, Texas next Wednesday to become eventing horses. I haven't sold a lot of horses and it is not an easy thing to do, emotionally. The horses are really a part of the family. Jet is a three year old gelding. His dam is my appendix QH mare, Juliet, and he is by an appaloosa sport horse, Chocklateconfetti. My husband and I stayed up in a tack room next to Juliet's stall for 2 weeks waiting for Jet to be born. I had fun raising him when he was a baby and will miss him. He is a sweet horse. Fire is a two year old leopard colt out of my racebred appy mare, Rose, and by Butterwap Confetti. He is exactly what I have tried to get in my breeding program- in essence a big, correct, colored sporthorse. He was born and raised at my parent's place, and Fire is one that not only the family, but the entire neighborhood will miss, as the neighbors ooh and aah and love to watch "Spottie" playing in the pasture. We look forward to seeing what these horses will accomplish in their new homes.
