Early Christmas + today's photo

Every year, I participate in a model horse Christmas gift exchange. This year was no exception, so I was delighted, but not surprised, to receive a big box from Kate Cabot earlier this week.

Inside I found a whole wealth of goodies, most of which were wrapped in this beautiful paper.

There was a stuffed pony and several types of chocolates,

two ornaments and a pot holder,

and a fun selection of 1:9 scale treats.

Literal treats.

The ice chest came with ice, which delights me to no end.

There was also a horsey holiday sweatshirt, which I will wear to every Christmas barn party for the rest of my life, starting with the one I attended today.

Last but definitely not least, was this personalized Olive necklace. I'm not generally a jewelry person, but I love this and have worn it nonstop since I unwrapped it.

Thank you so much, Kate. This was absolutely perfect.

Today's prompt for the Advent Model Horse Photo Challenge is Favorite Mold. I don't like picking favorites on principle, and I don't actually have a favorite mold. I do, however, have strong feelings about foals, longears and anything sculpted by Kylee Parks, so here's Goodnight Moon, a solid non-favorite favorite.

Fifteen down, ten to go!
