We often comment that Black Tie Affair is as beautiful today (at 11 years old) as she was the day we bought her. This stunning female's commanding presence, beautiful conformation and soft fleece make her a pleasure to have on our farm. Tie never fails to impress us with her offspring. She has produced four multi-blue ribbon and Champion females and an absolutely gorgeous male. We have sold two of her daughters, but when we see them we wonder why. Her male cria, Condor, out of the 2006 AOBA Black Halter Champ is listed in our herdsire section.
In 2010, Black Tie presented us with a beautiful dark fawn male cria. This pairing previously produced his sister a multi-blue ribbon and 2X Champion black female named Chantica. Cadillac Jack is impressive.
**********Okay we now have Chris's favorite cria for the year. He was skeptical when I decided to combine Tie and Bevo, but now he thinks I'm brilliant!!!!! On August 13, 2011 while I was attending a PAOBA event, Chris witnessed the birth of this lovely cria. We didn't even try to guess what color this cria would be since both parents have produced crias in the full spectrum of colors. This cria is a beautiful fawn female. At first touch you notice the amazing density and remarkable fineness of the fleece. A slight parting of the fleece reveals beautiful tiny bundles with the brightness that Tie is known for in her crias. Check back for photos of Christine (named for the character from Phantom of the Opera). See Christine at shows in 2012. She's a beauty!!!!!
We have bred Black Tie Affair to Accoyo America Kamikaze and anticipate yet another beautiful cria from her in June of 2013.
