New Girl from Iowa!
« on: March 03, 2015, 10:30:50 AM »
Hello! My name is Jody! I live in Urbandale, IA... with my amazing little girl and 3 dogs :)  I loved My Little Ponies as a kid!  Luckily I do hang my ponies but the play sets were probably all sold at garage sales or something.  Now that I have a little girl I am trying to replace everything .. And I am obsessed with the ponies that I never got as a child :) Out little collection has grow a lot lately. I was able to find a Show Stable and a Parlor.... I would REALLY like to find a really nice nursery next :).  At this point I think I am enjoying them more that my daughter.. But she will love them more when she gets older :). I have found cleaning up and restoring ponies to be very therapeutic! I love bringing them back to life:)

I've had horses most of my life... But my entrance into single motherhood had left no room for such thing.  I suppose my ponies are filling a void of sorts (and hopefully instilling a love for horses in my daughter :)

So that's me! Looking forward to meeting everyone!! Thanks for the welcome!

Hi, Jody! Welcome to the Arena!

It's great that you still have your ponies, but it's harder to keep playsets, they just take up so much room. We have lots of ponies, sets, and other mlp merchandise for sale in our sales forum, you might want to take a look and see if you can find any you like! Enjoy the forums!

Welcome to the Arena :wave:

MLPs were the closest thing to a real horse that I was allowed when I was little.  They have such fond memories for me, and I'm sure your little girl will grow up feeling the same way.  I hope you both enjoy the forums :frolic:

I am hoping it's ok if I ask a question here! I have contacted a few people about purchasing things they have for sale. I don't seem to be getting any responses? Is there something I am missing? Am I too new for certain things! I am super excited about a couple of things ... So I might be being a tad impatient ... But still think its weird to not be getting responses. Thanks for your help... I am learning :)
