WOW! That is a cool box! Congrats on all of your new ponies

[Mirnyj]

Yay! I'm so glad to hear that you liked it all!  Yes I knit the socks and gloves all by myself, hope they fit you. And it seems that your boys liked their new dragons too. Thy are finger puppets, if you didn't happen to notice.  Btw, your sons are abslutely adorable!

OMG, is this our first brag? What a fantastic box, Mirnyj! Teehee, the artwok is adorable, I'd love to grab it and run away with it

Look at all those ponies! (How on earth did you manage to stay within the swap limit? I am biting my nails now ... )

[Diamond]

Holy cow do you see that Cranberry Muffins!  I cannot believe I got her in a swap!  She is sooooo beautiful.  Also a gorgeous minty G3 Starflower which is totally appropriate coming from Lady S.   Look at all the eyeball candy and spider lights!

2 more beautiful G4s for my growing collection.  Plus fun halloween socks, a blind bag I have been wanting and a cute handmade card!

And the best part of all of this is that I got my box delivered to me in person when we met each other at the Michigan Pony Meet.  Lady S is such a sweetheart and it was wonderful to finally meet her.  I was super geeked to find out she had me for this swap and she did not disappoint!

Thank you so much Lady Starflower!!!

[Lady Starflower]

Yay I'm soooo happy you liked everything
Of course I had to get G3 Star Flower when I saw her on your list
It was so fun meeting you!! Hopefully we'll see each other again at the Fair and the next Michigan meet

[Mirnyj]

what a great box cricket! Cranberry Muffins is GORGEOUS! 

(How on earth did you manage to stay within the swap limit? I am biting my nails now ... )

I might have not... I might have blown the budget... Through the roof... 

ps. Thank you people for your kind words  I know I'm awesome.

Great boxes so far!

[terabithianprince]

Wow, what great boxes. I love Cranberry Muffins, cricket and what a nice box of ponies you got, pixieponies. Congrats both of you.

[fireglides]

I got my box! My partner was terabithianprince!

I have to say, this box had quite the journey with the post office. It was so badly dented, I was hoping there wasn't anything fragile inside, and luckily there wasn't. Whew! Crazy post office people.

Here's the dog and I opening the box. I think he's starting to learn that swap boxes mean possible toys for him, so he is super interested now.

All the goodies laid out . . . Look at all that tasty candy! There are some in here I haven't tried before, so I'm looking forward to diving into those. My hubby was eyeing some of them with interest as well.

Opening the first gift. There was a package with a note that said "for your dog." An adorable pink hippo! Pink is my favorite color. The hippo was immediately taken away to be gnawed and licked. Eventually it was taken to the perch at the top of the stairs where all loved toys are taken. Peanut proceeded to go back and forth between the toy and checking on each present I opened. Ha.

Opening the first pony! It's Pepperberry, who must be Hasbro's inside joke. I love her colors!
