My pony came!
 

My boyfriend asked if it would be okay to get me one large present of something I really wanted instead of a bunch of little things. I said, "Okay. You can buy me a pony."

One day, he came over and asked if I wanted one of my Christmas presents early because I really needed it. I said, "Sure but bring some hay for the pony. I guess we can tie her up in the backyard for a few days until you can take her to the farm." (He lives on a farm.) He brought me a vacuum. Which I desperately needed and am so happy to have.

After that, he did mention a time or two again about a "big" present.

I've been working on a quilt and have been having some problems with the machine I'm using. He said, "Well, maybe your Christmas present will make it easier." Seriously? I already suspected but, seriously?? LOL Dead giveaway!!

So, my pony arrived on Christmas morning. Her name is Singer. She quilts. Her registered name is Singer Confidence Quilter 7469Q.

I haven't been home long enough since I received it to even take it out of the box!! I am so so sooooo excited! I've been using my grandmother's circa 1992, cranky machine for three or four years now. I can't wait to get at this machine!!!

Better than a pony!

A pony named Singer - how great! Kudos to the Boyfriend.

Just think of how much money you will save not having to buy hay, more to buy fabric. I want new pony.

Very nice present, good for you and enjoy!!!

Wow what a wonderful gift, and that boy friend is a keeper :) Happy New Year and happy quilting.

He's a keeper.

WOW He is a keeper. Have fun with your new "pony".

I vote him a keeper too. Sounds like he really understands that a pony is a necessity.

Giddy up on that pony cowgirl! Wow don't you love farmers. They are the best. Hehehehehe

The bonus of this pony ... you won't need hay or water for it ... or have to deal with the poop! :)

What a great pressie you got,he is definately a keeper.

sounds like a keeper to me.

I think the cowboy rode my pony off into the sunset because it never arrived.

Glad your pony came and u love it!

Love the way he played along with you, too funny. Enjoy

What a great guy, farmers are so smart and understand that the best gifts are our hearts desires that make our life easier! Now make him a farm themed lap quilt with ponies in it!!!

............................and we have just that ..... how be you join us on The Pony Club quilt?

I have the exact "pony". Love everything about her except that I occassionally have a problem getting the bobbins to wind. Usually end up filling them on my Brother and using them in the Singer. Still wouldn't trade it! Lucky you and great boyfriend!

He is certainly a keeper. And has a sense of humor too!!!

I used to have a pony and horses and by far the singer pony will be much better. nothing to shovel!!!

nice pony and you do not have to worry about hay

Enjoy your new machine...wonderful boyfriend!

Great present and so much easier to clean up after.

I love the name of your pony, you better keep that BF for sure as he understands how important ponies are.

A girl I work with got this as an early christmas present she absolutly LOVES it!

Yes, he is a keeper!!

I've known he was a keeper all my life. We met when we were 13. When I was 15, he told me he wanted to marry me or someone just like me. We went our separate ways but finally reunited 25 years later. Never letting him go, pony or no pony. :)

i got my pony one year, a 2000 ford mustang gt convertible! now i need a new sewing machine. do you think a girl is entitled to 2 ponies? man, i hope so!! enjoy your new pony! yeehaww!!

Just remember to clean up after the pony.... Have fun

and you dont have to feed it or clean up after it !!! Very happy for you!

Lucky you! But I'll bet that little cutie in the photo would rather have the pony. ;o)

What a wonderful, thoughtful boyfriend. He sure is a keeper. When's the wedding??? LOL

Cute story, a wonderful gift.

Sounds like it's time to saddle her up and ride off into the sunset! Have a great trip.

just so you know...your Singer might appear to be cheaper and easier to care for than a pony, but that is not so! Your Singer will require tons of toys to keep her happy, regular exercise daily to keep her happy, and weekly grooming to keep her healthy!
ENJOY!

yippee kiyaaaa!!!! Keep hold of that BF, he is definitely a keeper. ;-)

Congrats!!! Learn well & have LOTS of fun with it!!

you are so lucky>
Wow what a great gift. Can you send him here. lol

I say "keep him" too. I know you cait wait to take your new pony out for a trot. Be sure to post pictures when you cross the finish line on your first time out!!
