From My Collection!

I found her at the Old River Valley Antique Mall in Stewartville, Minnesota! I'm a little embarrassed to say how much I spent on her, because it's more than I'm typically willing to spend on just one pony - But it's a perfectly valid price, I'm just stingy! She was 30 dollars, yes, but it was hard to say no - Seeing ponies in person is so exciting, and the employees were incredibly sweet and friendly, and willing to listen to me ramble about ponies! The store had lots of ponies, and it was super exciting.
