Adorable Equestrian Theme Stationary

I made the cutest ever equestrian girl for my daughter today at Design-her Gals. They offer a lot more than just the girl in the hunt coat with breeches and a crop. They have an entire collection of girls.. from savvy divas to sporty gals. I was going to create a “me” character, but I had more fun creating my girls. The image to the left is for my oldest daughter, I can’t figure out what to use it for so I’m going to wait until she gets home and see about making her a set of vanity cards with her email address, etc. on them to pass out to new friends. Here’s what the website offers:

“DesignHerGals offers original designs for personalized stationery and note cards combining warmth and a sense of fun - gift sets, moving announcements, note cards, gift ideas, wedding gifts, thank you notes, address labels, letterhead, and letter writing paper.”

That’s a lot! I will definitely be bookmarking this site, especially for gifts.

$16 million dollar 2 year old colt

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum of Godolphin and the guys from Coolmore are at it again. This rivalry is pushing these horses into the millions and setting world record prices. It’s almost unbelievable that Mohammed and John Magnier keep going at it head to head over these horses. The latest was the Florida Fasig-Tipton sale when John Magnier and Derrick Smith pushed the price to $16,000,000.  This folks is insane. This colt is also unproven, unnamed and the odds of him ever making $16,000,000 on the track is not going to happen.  I hope he’s fertile!!!!!!! (additional photo)

Hoosier Horse Fair

Hoosier Horse Fair is coming up. March 31, 2006 - April 2, 2006.  It’s the largest equine event in the state of Indiana. It’s a great place to shop as well as attend clinics and exhibitions.

I noticed this year that I don’t even recognize the names of any of the clinicians. Last year they had some top names. Not sure what’s up, but we’re excited nonetheless about attending this year.  You can literally spend 3 days straight just going through the shopping pavilions - yes there’s that many!
