A Double Win!

Last week I was so surprised to win a drawing on one of the beautiful blogs I read. Tanya at Miller Family Racing had a drawing for a $35 gift certificate at the CVS stores website. There was so much to choose from I had a hard time deciding until I came upon this: 

                         

It is a little wooden stable with 4 horses and wooden fence, ladder and 4 bails of hay!

Mary is in love with it.  It came in the mail yesterday and she has only stopped playing with it to go to sleep.  She wanted it in bed with her but I told her is was a little bit too hard and bulky and might not feel good to roll into in the night!  lol

 

She has watched the movie, Flicka 2, several times recently.  So this set up is just perfect for her to imagine the story in her mind.  She has the horses stampeding and then she rescues them from the wolves.  She puts the horses in the stalls and puts them to sleep.  She has them all named.  She has had just hours of fun playing with her horses and horse barn.  So, I had a double win, I won the gift certificate and I was able to get such a winner toy for Mary.   I told Rich we could add on to it later, with a red barn, more farm animals and some AstroTurf for a field.  As you can tell I am having as much fun with this as Mary!  lol 

 

Can't you just see the horses running for their lives to get away from the wolves and their protector Mary just out of sight to scare those bad wolves away:)
