Ffrewyn First Impression, aka "Nova"

 

Confidently trotting her way into my heart

After much brainstorming and sending my top picks to her breeder, I've officially settled on a barn name for my new filly: "Nova".

Since her father is "Iconic", she is the first baby to hit the ground for both parents, and she sports a big, flashy star to match her presence, it seemed fitting to name her "a new star".

As Jen Robertson, her breeder, fills me in with updates, her big, bold personality is shining through.

Places to be, other horses to visit

She's basically my own, personal, real life Breyer

When coming in from pasture, she gets haltered and led, but going out to pasture she gets to follow her momma, Ravyn, loose. However, apparently she likes to make detours to explore and visit her adoring fans the other horses.

The world is her oyster.

Brave just like her momma

Every time I see her, I still get goosebumps/butterflies.

I love working with a bold mare, so she appears to be everything I could've hoped for. I'm busy setting up transport and boarding for this fall, as well as day dreaming about meeting Nova and building a relationship for the future. 

Her first halter and lead have already been ordered, but I haven't settled on "her" colors yet.

Jen R. has been keeping me updated with plenty of media, as well as comments on her personality.

"She is 1000000% welsh cob lol"

She described Nova as potentially the nicest baby she's ever bred, jaw dropping, and "absolutely stunning". She also informed me that if I ever want to sell her back, she'd take Nova hands down.

Somebody pinch me, because I must be dreaming!
