Merry Christmas!!

Update - and Giveaway Winner!!

We're in the midst of a major winter storm here--we have a lot of new snow, but the winds are blowing and gusting so hard that the drifting snow makes it difficult to calculate exactly how much new snow we've received. We think about 9 inches, give or take a bit.

So, indoors was the place to be today, and we're happy to say that we are ready to announce the winner of our book giveaway! Our randomly selected (by a computer calculator, no less!) winner is. . .

"Fiona, age 9"

Congratulations, Fiona! We hope you enjoy your prize! (Did you know that the chestnut pony at the top of this blog is also named Fiona??) Drop us a note at welshponies@miraclewelsh.com so we can mail your prize out to you right away.

We really enjoyed reading everyone's responses to the colts vs. fillies question--there seemed to be a fairly even split between colt enthusiasts and filly fans--and some of you couldn't choose. Foals are delightful, aren't they?? :-)

Pictures of the snow--hopefully tomorrow!!

Poster Book Giveaway!!

We had so much fun with our first book giveaway that we've decided to do it again. :-) This time, the prize is a copy of The World's Greatest Colts & Fillies Poster Book, which features 43 large, full-color, pull-out posters with photographs of adorable colts and fillies. The photography in this book is by Daniel Johnson. :-) This book would make a fabulous Christmas gift for any young horse or pony enthusiast!

For your chance to win this book, you can enter by leaving a comment to this post, answering the following question: What's your preference: colts or fillies?

Winners will be chosen randomly and announced on Wednesday.

Also, look on the right hand side of this blog, you'll see where you can click to "follow" us. . . we've just added this new feature. :-)

HAVE FUN! :-)
