So
race_ulfson posted this on FB last night and I was floored because...well, after watching about seven Shark Week episodes in a row, all I could think of was
how bloody the water looks. Hopefully you can see this video because wow. Additional links:

other videos.
And earlier this week, two - two! packages arrived for me, one from
perpetual and the other from Breyer. So here, let's
Ooo, look, boxes!
I know the big box is Breyer but I don't recognize the address/hand writing on the smaller box. A surprise!
Ooo, a card!
*cue dumbfounded, delighted squeaks*
THANK YOU
perpetual!!!!
Now, back to the Breyer Box...the horse on the top was Greenman!
I love the pearl-y gloss he wears. I'm not going to take him out of the box yet, though; I'll need to rearrange the horses on the available shelves to do that. So on to the next...
Eire! Eire is a Stablemate size. I couldn't get the picture without all that gloss highlighting, drat it. She's still in her box, too.
I ordered a Grab Bag, too, which is full of "Stuff" but you have no idea what's in it 'til you open it. I wanted one of the more expensive bags but went with the least expensive, considering how much money I'd spent already. So this box is full of my Grab Bag items!
Doesn't this look intriguing? All the stuff in here is from previous Breyerfests.
First up: these two. The stuffed horse had a matching pouch with this jockey and Thoroughbred inside.
The stuffed horse and the pouch are done up like racing silks which is pretty cool. The blanket the horse wears has the number "18" and "Breyer" - for 2018, I'm pretty sure. It's a nice little piece, about the same size as Eire.
And there's another plush horse - Officer Oscar, wearing a red cape that reads "Horse Heroes". My sisters had a horse marked like this guy when I was a kid so that's a nice treat!
...and a rocks glass!
Thank you for attending my box opening! :D
