Holly Update — May 17, 2008

Update from Monica Bretherton on her Horsebytes column: http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/horsebytes/archives/139100.asp I am trying to figure out what her Appy pattern would be called. I think Snowcap, because she has no spots, Marble, because of the pattern in her...

Honeycutt Update from May 16, 2008

Liz Stabbert of Liz Stabbert Photography came by yesterday and donated a photoshoot of Honeycutt. I know we often joke about Honeycutt becoming a model.…well apparently it’s no joke to him! He stood nice and still for his close-ups, and conveyed a lot of emotion with...

Phoenix Photos and Hock Swelling
