Tracy over at the Printable Pony is kind enough to organize this gift exchange every year and I am so glad that she does. I just mailed my gift out yesterday, so my recipient should hopefully receive it by Saturday. I was a bit nervous to shop for someone who seems to have everything, but hopefully she likes the things I picked out. Fingers crossed.
This year my gift came from Michele over at Fat Buckskin in a Little Suit. I had read her blog some, but not a lot. Mostly I knew of her from other blogs I had read, but hadn’t interacted with her myself just yet.
To say Michele did a great job is an understatement. As soon as I opened the card that had a little chihuahua on it who looked almost identical to my dog Tank, I knew the box wouldn’t disappoint. I was right.
The box just got better from there. First up it was a very soft knit hat with a removable pompom on top. I now feel like an honorary #pomclub member since I’m not an eventer.
Next up was a stuffed black pony for Hunter that looks almost identical to Dexter.
Then it was two pairs of fuzzy Horseware socks that are very soft and warm. I put one pair on after I opened the box and once I realized the picture was blurry, I was already wearing them. So only one pair is pictured.
Then we had a candy cane full of Stud Muffins, which I am certain Manny will devour this evening.
Last but certainly not least, a horse shaped cup with a straw. Hunter played with this last night, but hasn’t learned how to drink out of a straw yet, but I can’t wait until he does.
Thank you so much for all the wonderful gifts, Michele and Thank you Tracy once again for organizing. Christmas is one of my favorite Holidays and this gift exchange is just the icing on the cake.
The Horse is Not Black 
Am I still an adult if I admit that the cup is my favorite part of this one?? I want to drink wine out of it… hahahaha

Absolutely! Michele said a couple of things in the box were for Hunter and that and the pony made the most sense. But the cup is definitely multi purpose. 😂

Michele knows what’s up! Love the hat with removable pom! Also that cup is adorable. I had them awhile back at Rio’s 20th birthday party and they were big hit with the kids AND the grown ups!

So glad you loved it all. I wanted to put even more in the box 🙂 Sorry the dogs got left out 🙂 I ran out of room! HAHAHA
I try to buy things I like for people. So glad it worked out. And that sippy cup can totally be for wine or cider or whatever 🙂 Hunter doesnt have to know…the pony i had to pet for a while before i put him in the box. so cute (also is it funny that there was a choice of a chestnut and a bay and this and I chose the black) : )
Hope you and your family had a wonderful xmas!!

It’s so hard to not keep buying things for the SS gift exchange. No worries on the dogs getting left out. My chihuahua just about lives off of treats (he’s spoiled rotten), so he nor the other two are one bit deprives. It’s a little hard shopping for people you don’t know especially, but even people I know better, I buy things for them that I would like also. Haha…I’m totally going to “borrow” Hunter’s cup. He MIGHT get it back when he learns how to use a straw. That is too funny about the pony. Yes, black was definitely the right choice. 🙂
We had a wonderful Christmas, other than taking my husband to the ER on Christmas Day after supper for Vertigo. Luckily he’s fine, but Hunter got to spend some quality time with husband’s side of the family. Hunter has more toys than he knows what to do with and he’s having a blast playing with them. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas as well!
