TINY PONY SWAP - BRAG THREAD

[tulagirl]

@Lochness.....ROFLOL yea I figured you did, but just in case you didn't...I didn't want anyone to think I was a major weirdo ROFLOL...seriously I wouldn't want anyone to think I play with ponies..wink.....snicker....

Oh yea......I had this jungle Gym in my back yard and I would pull the swing up to the top of the jungle gym....to where I could only hold the seat it was up so high...then somehow manage to jump onto the seat while I was sailing down and up in the air. Mannnnnnn that was so much fun.  My mother would watch me through the kitchen window biting her fingernails hoping I wouldn't kill myself.  Never once fell. If I tried that now I would be paralyzed for life.  I taught my friends how to do it and we would all take turns.  We would also put circus music on and set the speaker up (I know I am dating myself a bit here as we used records)..anyway...we would set the speaker up in the window so it would blast in the back yard...wear some sort of dance wear and do tricks on that swing like it was a trapeze.  Life was just so much fun back in those days.  My swing was in a huge oak tree and my dad put it on a very high branch so it would swing really high due to the ropes being so long.  He also put rings on the ropes so I could do tricks on it.  He was the best dad in the world.  I sure love him...its funny how little things like that bring a tear to your eye. You take it for granted as a kid and then your parent gets sick and you are flooded with everything they ever did that made you smile.  Thats when you realize how much you actually did notice and appreciate things as a kid.

My goodness!!  I was braver as a kid than I am now, but not THAT brave!  Yikes! 

Aww... I'm glad you have such great memories of your dad, that is so great to hear.  Hugs, and thanks for sharing.

You were so easy to buy for tula and I had so much fun! - I love both HK and Studio Ghibli myself. Those teenie LPS figures are adorable too and I had to stop myself from starting another collection! ^^

AMAZEBALLZ!!!
Great box Lochness, from the packaging to the extras, great attention to detail
I don't even know what ponies they are, but I want those & that candle... I can almost smell it

Great Pix Stern!

[lochnessmomster]

I have to agree with minercia... you did a fabulous job with these photos!  I'm just so glad you like everything.  I was so nervous after I received your amazing box and I knew there was no way mine could compare.  I didn't send you a grail pony or a beautiful custom.  But you are so gracious and kind.  Your brag and your sweet words really made my day, thank you!!!

Thanks.    Baby Susie and Baby Katie are Best Friend Ponies.  They were exclusive to Europe.  There is also Baby Billie, a pink pony with purple hair and a rabbit symbol.  Each came with a matching pet (which are super duper hard to find).

[NovelNerd]

Oh Stern that is a lovely box! Putting the pony inside a little box like that is a great idea!

[minercia]

Very cool! Every time I think I seen all the g1 ponies new ones always pop up.
Thanks Lochness!
oooh snickers.. *chomp* *chomp* *chomp*
