(ahh I couldn't line them up!!)

Since the two of them decided to arrive in the midst of the World Series, I gave them Cubs themed names - the colt is named Wrigley (sorry I stole the name, Gem) and the filly is Fly the Flag! Wrigley is obviously named after Wrigley Field, but Fly the Flag (who I call Effie, for short) might confuse you. Jo, who, as she's previously said, lives in Chicagoland, has become keen at deciphering when the Chicago Cubs have won their game, even if she doesn't watch the game or keep up with the score at all. "How does she do this?" you might ask. Well, many die-hard Cubs fans like to display certain flags the day after the Cubs win their game:
I thought it was fitting to name both my foals in honor of ending the Cubs' 108 year drought. And I guess they were good luck, because the Chicago Cubs are World Series Champions! :D
