the fabulous g1s i received are lickety-split, sunny bunch, and tangles.
they're all in such good shape. i love merry go round ponies, sunny bunch is my second one and i think i'm going to shoot for getting the full set!

the g3s were both surprises! scootaloo and triple treat who will be getting rehaired with rainbow hair or maybe yarn. =)

i might have been more excited about this set than the ponies themselves! i've been seeing them all over the mlp arena facebook page and i kept talking myself out of getting them in case i could find them at a ross near me... i can't decide if i want to unwrap it or not!

thank you SO MUCH for everything, @Moongate Memorabilia =) i'll remember how fabulous this secret santa is every time i use my moongate memorabilia tote bag at school!
 
Very great box! I love the little pony type eraser things. Merry go round ponies are awesome. :) You are lucky to get one of those mlp mugs they look great. :D
 
I am so pleased that you liked your gift package! You took fabulous glamour photos of the ponies. Merry Christmas, Seasons Greetings and Happy New Year to all!
 
I just opened a beautiful box from @Teen Mermaid! :ponylove:

I opened the box and saw the glitter, and knew this was going to be a good one! :winkpony:

Behold the bounty! @Teen Mermaid, you mentioned in your note that I have specific tastes (true!) and let me just tell you, you hit them all! :satisfied: The Rudolph things are adorable, I LOVE the socks, the glittery ornament is going right on the tree, and your art is BEAUTIFUL!

Let me show it in all it's glory:

Your style is gorgeous and so unique, and I'm so honored to have a piece of your work featuring my pony! :ponylove:

Thank you so much for all the love and care you put into putting this box together for me, I absolutely love it. :)


PS: You have the neatest handwriting I have ever seen! :winkpony:
 
Wow that picture is gorgeous! You are so sweet teen mermaid! Now I'm uber excited to get my package:)
 
My box arrived! The contents are so perfectly me! Thank you so much @Gingerbread - it is totally awesome!!!

Here is my first peek inside! Yummy Cheetos, cool disney wrapping paper and awesome Eeyore card!

Here is one last pic of everything

Very nice box you were spoiled. :) Scoops and Speedy are very cute and what love extras. Those mlp mugs are great.
:)
 
Yay! I'm glad it arrived safely and that you liked it :)
 
Whoa, that Starshine mug is awesome! What's inside of it?
 
Hot chocolate! Yummy! :D
I thought so! I know there's a Gusty/birthflower yet (someone else posted a pic of it in this thread), but the Starshine mug looks taller. I haven't seen that in stores. So happy there is G1 merchandise available. I geeked out SO MUCH when I heard about the Gusty one! (My favorite pony).
 
I searched all of the Rite Aid stores immediately when I heard about the Gusty Mug Set. It comes with hot chocolate and a cookie. Unfortunately each store only orders a few to have in stock with Christmas merchandise. I have not seen the Starshine mug yet in stores. It must vary by region.
 
Around here, I know Kmart and Sears have the Gusty mug. :)

Anyway, time for my brag! It was a long day at work, as my final exam was at night and of course my students took the whole time. It was nice to come home to find a package. I didn't give my partner a ton to go on, but dancerin really nailed it anyway! First, a pic of my cat Mew "helping" me open a package. He had a blast with the ribbon later.

And here's my stuff:

I have wanted this pony for a long time, and it's so nice to see the bunny in such great shape.... you know, and actually attached. :) The Ninjabread kit was the first thing I opened, and it made me laugh so hard. Look at their faces! I absolutely adore Dove dark chocolate. Mmmm. I haven't had Lindt in a while, so that'll be a nice change, and I have somehow never had Cadbury dark chocolate, only milk chocolate, so yay! It's been a while since I've had holiday pencils, but I will definitely use them. I don't remember writing anything about candles, but... um I am sort of obsessed with them! I have a whole drawer full of them and almost always have them burning. This one smells amaaaazing, and look how pretty it is! Thank you, dancerin! :)

(Wow, I used a lot of exclamations... you could say I am happy haha)
 
Received my $25 swap box, but I'm holding off on opening it tonight. I need to hit the sack early. :-/ Thanks swap pal!
 
Sooooo... I got my box from the lovely @MustBeJewel last Thursday, but I restrained myself from opening until yesterday.

Oh my, what a great box I got!

This is the first thing I saw when I opened my box:

Then, like a mad pony, I started ripping the wrapping paper apart. I have to say Jewel put so much detail in the wrapping it was insane! Everything was double , and beautifully wrapped. Such a tease!

This is what my card looked like:

This is an overview pic of my loot!

I got some notepads, a cute marker set, gummy worms, dark chocolate (and the most delicious dark chocolate truffles, yum!), a kitchen rag, some soap (hidden in the pic), awesome custom cookie cutters, an ornament, and the best thing: PONIES! Pinkie Pie is awesome, and I had really wanted her for a while, and my birthflower pony: Lily of the Valley... and my favorite thing in the box... the Cotton Candy ornament!

Now for some close ups:

Look at this gorgeous pony!

She has the softest hair ever, and I had wanted her since she came out in stores!

And look at this gorgeous ornament:

Diesel loved it, here he is playing with it:

Tee-hee!

Thank you oh so much, @MustBeJewel! We loved everything so much!
