Hatter, she'll love 'em. It isn't that nice that she made the comment, but I can see her worry when she sees how pony crazy you are lately
I know you have other stuff in the works, she'll appreciate 'em. I say go for it!
My husband and I don't exchange gifts for x-mas and we're both fine with that. Then, we do have all the gifts for the kids that makes it magical enough. Plus he was raised a Jehova's witness, so he gets weirded out by holidays
Anyway, do it!
