We've had a lot of vets bills recently as our dog was sick so didnt exchange presents this year

Seeing the dog eat a bit of chicken and veg without being sick was probably the best present ever though

Hubby normally works Christmas day but didnt this year so we had some precious time together and went round all of the animals and chicken runs with treats

Small pleasures :)
 
I bought myself a Christmas present.................

I got a Samsung Galaxy S3 phone :D Which was a joint Birthday/Christmas and graduation present! (I'm born on Christmas day :p )


My OH and I are going halves in a helmet cam, and he is also making me ARROW HEADS for my Birthday!! :D:D I'm so lucky!

A few other little things, like handbag, and a cooler bag to put the ice cells for my ice boots in to take them to the agistment!

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas! I'm making the most of the online Boxing Day sales today! Looks like we are in for another corker of a day here!

My complete and utter non horsey Mum gave me christmas money for Olympia last wk and picked up fab Bridle, HKM saddlecloth, bling schooling whip and black and white horsey prints:) love my Mum.

Got some fab non horsey pressies from friends whom wanted to get something for me as opposed to my horse.

My OH took no hints and I got a voucher for a very high end dept store with no Equine section. Am not ungrateful, just wished he had taken on board what I wanted. Lol

Best pressie of all though was seeing the faces of the 2 kids walking in the living room door and the look of awe on their faces when they saw what santa had brought:)
Also really enjoyed my first christmas of having my own horse to visit @ the yard:)
 
Enough material to finish the next chunk of my patchwork quilt I'm making from my mum and dad :D It's been a long time in the planning and I can't wait to get cracking- I've designed it so each square has something that reminds me of bits of my life. My old XC colours will be making an appearance!

My brother and sister utterly spoilt me as well. They bought me a lovely belt- it's one of the polo belt things, with woven bits on. In my sister's XC colours too so I can be a proper cheer-er on- eventing matchy matchy! And the video editing software I've been quietly lusting over for ages.

Can I be really sappy and say that spending the day with my incredibly bonkers family has been the best though? They take eccentricity to a whole new level and today has been perfect in every way :D

Only pony present I got was a lovely fleece exercise sheet from my sister. However, I am awaiting the delivery of my shiny new Barnsby jump saddle (a present to myself :eek: :eek: )

Hope everyone is enjoying the festive period - I'm off to start on the champagne cocktails again soon!
