Pile o' Ponies!

[altivo]

Got some cash for my birthday and Christmas, mainly from my mate's Mom. Usually I buy books or music with it, but this year I warned her I was going to buy plush toys. She knows we have a huge number of them in the house already, since she visits for a weekend now and then. She just smiled and said "OK".


Today we had a chance to go shopping and stopped at Toys R Us. I wanted a really big cuddly horsey. They had them, even some with wings. That would have been my first choice, hooves down, except they were only pink or lavender. So I settled for this big paint with a circus saddle. He's really huggy. I also got a couple of small sized ones to give away, and just couldn't leave behind the dark bay in the middle foreground. The others, including the small paint pegasus sitting on the saddle and the Clydesdale on the right, have been around for a while, but none were large enough to really cuddle.

A Pile of Ponies Christmas 2005: I decided to enlarge my herd of ponies. New members include the largest in the background, the small paint facing the camera, and the bay who is nuzzling the paint here.

My mate won't let me bring horses into the house, so...

No horses in the house!? Nice collection though... Between Pokey and I we had quite a few as well!

The main reason the horses can't come in the house is, they won't stay on the ground floor, of course, so then they'll go upstairs (quite the operation in itself) and, no matter how careful and considerate they are, you'll hear KLOMP KLOMP KLOMP all afternoon. I don't want to even contemplate how they'd come down the stairs so they can go back out to the barn. It's really better for all concerned if they stay outside. You're quite lucky that they let you come visit them in their "home."

Moose was telling me about those huge ones they have at Toys R Us last night. ...from the little pictures they looked only half decent... (there are lots of cheaply manufactured low quality plush toys out there, unfortunately) ...but it actually looks pretty nice in your picture. ...I could see myself getting one like him. My bed's pretty small though. ;p

I have a big clydesdale at the head of my bed, one with a metal armature inside so it stays standing (not very much fun to cuddle. :-/)
Okay, with each sentence I write here I'm wanting one of those big ones like yours more and more...

Awwww....
