So... what's everyone got?! Preferably horsey, but non-horsey also fine!

For me, it's been:

Lush pair of wellies/muckers
Leather headcollar
Exercise sheet

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Not wishing to be too soppy, but my first 'loving nuzzle' from my 1st/new horse. She's been with us for a month now and this morning was the first time she moved in and stayed for a head cuddle.

Best present I could have wished for.

To be cheesey, the grin on Mum's face as she rode Genie this morning.

On the material side, the LOVELY WW muckers from my sister which means no more wet feet at the yard!

I didnt get many Horsey presents,
But by far it has to be the photo my brother took of me riding, and he printed it off on photo paper and framed it for me
smile.gif

By far the best horsey present

Merry Christmas Guys!
 
A fantastic charcoal drawing of a pony by a local artist of a Dartmoor pony that I loved when I saw it but decided I couldn't afford it, and my lovely OH got it secretly for me!
 
Partner said he loved me!
Then good company + lots of laughter! Calling in on friends, riding bikes to pub, funny texts! And sunshine into the bargain! Been nice day, hope it has for you all, BS x
 
A 24 Carrot Necklace from my other half....the first year I had my old boy, he got me an 18 Carrot Necklace, now I have 2 horses, I guess he thought he had to up the stakes a bit!

Also WFP's autobiog, which I thought was a very thoughtful pressie from a very non-horsey man!
 
My grandma bought me a lovely mark todd saddle cloth and got my horses name embroided on it
smile.gif
cheered me up and has to be one if not the best present this year
smile.gif
 
I`ve had some lovely new jods with leather seat,
a new white saddlecloth
paddock boots
NS bit
Carol Mailer reins
chaps
JW browbands 1 for each horse
2 x show shirts
I only have horsey things
Oh and £200 from mum for the sales, for horsey things. lol
 
Mine has to be,
My X-Country top and matching hat silk, blue with pink stars from _Gina_ (on here) my sister.

My body protector and hip flask, engraved, from my OH.

But I had loads and loads, of fantastic presents!

I treated myself
smile.gif
to a lovely horse lorry and a very warm pair of jods and todd long socks
grin.gif
and we'll see what my lovely sis has got me for crimbo tomorrow
wink.gif
 
Mary King autobiog, some really gorgeous posh tack soap (my mum is aware of my tack cleaning obsession
grin.gif
) not that much else horsey, as we are still looking for a new horse, so will have to buy a load of new stuff then anyway, and also because Dad bought an IW 511 for me earlier this year
tongue.gif

Non horsey: BEAUTIFUL gold necklace with little gold keys and a pearl on it...lovely new PJ bottoms...and a note from my dad saying hes put £100 in my bank account to spend on randoms
laugh.gif

Aaaand a day with the whole family without any (major
wink.gif
) arguments, and all my loved ones being happy.
I am a very lucky, happy girl
grin.gif
 
At the risk of being highly non soppy I got my Tiffany bracelet that I picked in NY today & the boy got me a gorgeous Swarovski set. I's spoiled
grin.gif

I know this is pathetically sentimental but following turbo's accident a few years ago the best pressie for me ever single christmas is having him still around
blush.gif


Non horsey - I got a worm farm
grin.gif
and a sponsored WWF polar bear. I'm a bear person and polars are my favourite
grin.gif
 
non horsey hubby bought me the book - 101 schooling exercises for horse and rider. Given me some ideas to plan on what to work on when I get my youngster back in. Never had a true baby before so this will help give me a plan of action rather than just bumbling along.
 
Horsey: A diamante browband, which was a surprise.. pony will be a puff!
Some useful gloves
laugh.gif

A mounting block (sad I know but I needed on, jump blocks just arent the same)

Non-horsey: Two charms for my pandora bracelet and chocolates. Getting some more pressies tomorrow off the boyfriend
smile.gif
 
Horsey:

- Brand new RP BP in my xc colours..
- Prolite & Premier Equine eventing boots for my boy
- Some jump 4 joy jump stands
- and some of the GBR clothing- from my lovely sponsors!

Merry crimbo, to everybody

A pair of very smart leather gaiters paid for by my brother, which I bought at Olympia. SO comfy once on, but I did nearly dislocate everything trying to do up the ankle poppers.
Hope they'll stretch a bit!!
