I posted this over in the Make A Wish Brag Thread too. 

A few months back, we made the difficult decision to put my dog to sleep.  It was very hard on our family, but the right thing to do.  I found comfort in the kind words of support from all of you here.  The Arena really is filled with the most wonderful people in the world.

So imagine my surprise when I arrived home yesterday to find a rather large box sitting on my front step.  I know I hadn't ordered anything so large, but I wasn't sure who had sent me this mysterious package.  I opened it, and imagine my huge shock.  It was a collection of gifts from my Make A Wish Swap friends!  I was blown away.  I am still blown away. 

Magic Erasers!!  I needed more too!

I have no words to say, except thank you so very much.  I am so incredibly lucky to know such wonderful people.  I love you guys!!

Oh poops!  I just got sniped in the last few seconds on a pony I wanted on eBay. 

Oh well, I guess I didn't really need that pony anyway:(.  But I do really hate to lose!! 

Anyone else get sniped lately?

My hubby and I play this funny game called "Quick! Name 5".  It can be anything from name 5 Lionel Richie songs to name 5 things you put cream cheese on.  So here is how the game goes: I will throw out a "Quick! Name 5 ______ ponies" and the next poster will answer.  After, they will pose the question again for the next poster to answer.  Ready??

Quick!  Name 5 yellow ponies.  Go!

Please if you have her, I would love her:)

I have a Gusty who has some issues.  She had some stains on her back legs, but her hair is lovely.  I can upload pictures if anyone is interested. 

This brag is overdue, but I was waiting for the right time to post this.  I have to seriously thank the amazing PYTHIA (yes, she is the hero of the day/month/year) for sending me a crazy amazing gift.

Holy cannoli she is amazing!  I have been admiring her since she arrived, and I still can't believe my eyes:)  Thank you so much Pythia for sending me such a wonderful and special gift!!!!!!!

So I also got back into collecting wingers after I finished up a few swaps I was in.  Here is the auction photo:

Oh, not only did I win them for a terrific price, but the seller is AWESOME!!!  We had a beautiful communication back and forth, and she used to post on the Arena!  Not to mention in the middle of selling a bunch of ponies, she had a baby:)     It was so wonderful to meet such a lovely woman and get to share her joy!!!

I received the ponies last week, and while most of them were perfect, literally perfect, a few need some work.  Here are the perfect ones!

An absolutely perfect Cool Breeze.  The wings have a slight crease, but no marks, blemishes, rubs or anything!

Here is a Moon Jumper I bought off eBay who had an unfortunate hair cut.  The seller said her wings were damaged, but I couldn't believe my eyes....they were perfect!!!!  Here she is after a quick rehair:

She's been rehaired in DH Venom.  I can't even to describe how beautiful she is.  I have a lot of really gorgeous ponies, but she just might be one of my top stunners.  She is also the first MJ I have ever rehaired.  Because she is so hard for me to come by, I try to keep any Moon Jumper who comes into my home as authentic and original as possible.  But this girl was missing a lot of hair plugs and had a taped on tail  (you read that correctly.  Taped on.) 

I hope you enjoyed my pictures!
 

Ok, I'm not sure this is the right place for this, but here we go.

Has anyone eaten this?  I thought I'd try it, and it's day 5 and I feel like I'm dying!!  My insides are killing me:(  Seriously digestive system, why you no like me?

Jamie Lee Curis didn't say anything about bad stomach problems in the Activia yogurt commercials!
