Exhibit A: My Christmas present to Theo which just arrived
As my Secret Santa this year said, "what do you get the woman that already has everything?". She got me a bottle of wine and five kinds of chocolate.
I have awesome barn friends.
But that doesn't stop me from having a wish list. A rather long one.
Dear Santa,
I've been a very good girl this year. I did most of No Stirrup November, took Theo out on the trails by himself weekly, and have been working hard on my homework. I even cleaned all of my tack last week! My trainer says I've been very good and deserve a treat (she may have been talking to Theo, not sure on that point). Since I've been so good, I'm hoping to find a few things under the tree to help me be even better next year.
A new jumping bridle for mi papi.
High Jump from PS of Sweden, I don't know why but I just want it
New cross country boots. You can never be too safe over 18", you know.
Dalmar Cross Country boots from Dover
The Frank Baines Union Lux, I want this so badly, pity I have other bills to worry about
He would rock the vintage pink
Maybe a magic new bit that will fix all of our contact issues.
Lorenzini loose ring in titanium, because when in doubt, buy another bit
Or a new coat for that show debut.
Seriously, this coat is everything I've ever wanted in a dressage coat
Oh, there's this one other thing I'd love to see under the tree.
I know, I have weird tastes
So let me know when you'll be dropping all of my treasures off, Santa, so I can make room in my always overflowing locker.
Thanks,
Catie
OMG YOU GOT THOSE BOOTS
ReplyDeleteI loooooooove them, but cannot justify ANOTHER set of jump boots for a dressage horse.
They are squishy and wonderful! I actually got them mostly for the days when I'm in too much of a hurry for polos, they are the fanciest flatwork boots in the barn.
Deleteha great list! fwiw i had a very positive buying experience from pelham saddlery ;)
