| I turned 28 yesterday. Woo Hoo! Ive been married for 5 years and I have a beautiful 2 ½ yr old daughter.
Pets:
• Mini Horse: 3 ½ years old. Name: Oreo
• Mini Donkey: 10 years old. Name: Momma Donkey
• 3 Dogs: Behr (Lab 8 yrs old), Tank (Rottweiler 6 yrs old), Bullet (Heeler/Collie Mix 5 yrs old)
Hobbies:
• Besides barrel racing, I LOVE Hunting! Im an avid duck hunter but Im tapping into big game. My deer hunting trip is in 2 weeks and Im super excited!
• Im a closet painter. Haha. Not too many people realize I have an artistic side.
• When Im not racing in the summer, I take a lot of camping trips.
Clothing: Size M/L I will wear any color except purple. I like to wear burn out T-shirts/ Hoodies/ long sleeve shirts. Favorite Brand is Cowgirl Tuff and Girls with Guns. Im also a huge sucker for winter socks. I hate having cold feet!
Favorite Scent: Vanilla, Cinnamon, Apple pie
Favorite Candy/Food: Milk Chocolate, Caramel, Coffee, steak, blueberry pancakes, bacon, and baked goods!
Tack: Black is my main color. Im not into super bright colors, I like a classic look. I love hand painted tack. Im in desperate need of bell boots (Size M) and I need more bridles. I currently have way more bits then bridles. Im open to any kind of used tack.
Work: I currently work in an office and my space needs sprucing up. I would love to have more cowboy/country/horsey nick knacks. I have a lot of wall space but not enough pictures.
Im not a picky person. I like just about anything!

Location: Oklahoma | This is my first year & I'm super excited!
I'm 25, married with no kids. Husband and I are both Oklahoma State University alum, so you can't go wrong sending anything orange my way. I have a chocolate lab named Gus, but the real apple of my eye (yes, even over my horses) is my Dachshund, Emma.
I just started running barrels again this spring and have two geldings... a black and a red roan that I'm bringing out of retirement. I love to collect colorful bell boots (size Large) for my black gelding... pretty much anything goes except animal prints. My overall look is pretty neutral... I'm saving up for a nice tack set and then I'll get picky! I only use rope halters (one gelding sets back) and can't have enough of them! My latest obsession is colored mule tape ones. I just ask that you don't buy anything pink for my boys, but bling is perfectly acceptable! My favorite colors are oranges, blues, corals, greens, purples.. pretty much anything bright.
I also like to collect beaded/stretchy headbands to put on my cowboy hat and colorful/sparkly earrings to coordinate with the shirts I run in. I'm a size Large in a shirt. I also love colorful scarves for just everyday wear. I also like the typical girly things... perfume (vanilla based), candles, makeup, etc. I also have an over the top obession with NYC, so if you wanted to really splurge and get me a plane ticket..... 
I LOVE to cook and enjoy little utensils/gadgets that aid in food prep. I also love colorful little measuring cups and dipping bowls... things of that nature. My favorite foods are Italian. Pastas, breads, sauces... I'll cook and eat it all!
I'm pretty easy going and will love anything! I'm not overly picky!
----
What is something that you'd love to have, but wouldn't really justify spending the money on for yourself? More bell boots.... I don't need any more, but variety is the spice of life!
Do you want something that's horse related, unrelated to horses or a mixture of both? A mixture of both would be nice, but I'm not complaining either way! I like typical girly things (lip glosses, lotions, etc.) along with rustic home furnishings.
Name 3 specific items you want:
3or4H Elite with 10'8" SW w/ Onan
14.5" Caldwell Pro Max
14.5 Pozzi (standard tree)
Slick by Design baby
(I could elaborate on this if needed....)
Fun colored knotted reins
Patterned show blanket (if there is any affordable ones!) to go over saddle pad
Name your 3 favorite colors
See above
What are your horse colors?(Omit if you said you wouldn't want horse items)
Right now it's leather and black/tan/brown. But I like to pair colored bell boots with whatever shirt I'm wearing and reins.
Clothing size and type of clothing/stores you like to shop at
Large and I usually shop at boutiques... I don't really have certain stores I shop at any more.

My favorite color is Roan ;-)
I have three daughters aged 6 almost 7, 2. 5, and 6 months
Pets ... we have Mavis as the house dog, working dogs Tuff (border collie), Hoss (Kelpie) Fanny (border collie). Its a bit stramge to not put della on that list anymore.
Cats apple and trigger.
Horses. Annabell, Sage, Romper, Sponner, Pickles, Star, Skittles, Bo, Willie, Miles.
Hobbies - Asside from all the horse stuff, I like to sew and scrapbook and do lots of crafts and garden, I love to garden and lots of meals everything on the plate came from our farm.
Im not sure what all to say. Looking forward to meeting sombody new!
I hate asking and telling what i want! But i see we need to make a little list.
I would love a nice set of polos for my little mare, she does not tolerate boots at all, and is a very hard turning horse. I really need to find something she will work in and stay protected.
A pretty colar for mavis would be nice to (shes a bigger type dog)
Another thing i would cherish is a memory cross for my dog Della, i miss her lots.
Im really not pickey! I like all colors, my saddle seat is ostrich green (dark not lime) i have tack sets in many colors!

| I participated last year and got to know some awesome people!
About me:
I am 27, will be 28 in January.
I am a teacher and have been teaching for five years, currently half way through my masters.
I have five dogs: a JRT named Paisley, a mutt named Floyd, a blue heeler named Azul, a red heeler named Roja, and a red merle aussie named June.
I have six cats: Izabell, Holly, Monty, Scardy Cat, Jinxy, and Bobby the Bob Tail.
I have four horses:
Rosie-retired lawn ornament, trail riding horse on occasion, old 4H horse
Monster-3 year old prospect
Hollywood-my show horse who is just coming off an injury
Hank-4 year old prospect that was passed around a lot, working on his confidence, he is a little shy and unsure about things
What I like:
Anything horse related or animal related! I love bright colors, hot pink, baby blue, purple!
I am addicted to professional choice bell boots, polo wraps of any awesome color, sore no more products, PHT poll packs....I love hoodys! My size would be large for a hoody.
I am easy to please! I don't really know what else to add!!
Editing to Add the questions posted on the other thread.
What is something that you'd love to have, but wouldn't really justify spending the money on for yourself?
Starbucks gift card, Amazon gift card for E books....
Do you want something that's horse related, unrelated to horses or a mixture of both?
I really enjoy getting horse related stuff only because my family does not understand my horse habit therefore I never really get anything horse related from other people.
Name 3 specific items you want
I like suprises, that is half the fun!
Name your 3 favorite colors
Pink, Purple, Baby Blue
What are your horse colors?(Omit if you said you wouldn't want horse items)
All of the above! Bright flashy colors are my favorite.
Clothing size and type of clothing/stores you like to shop at
Not a fan of receiving clothing because I am picky, BUT a good ol hoody suits me fine if they are not over priced. For a hoody I would typically be a large, but if they run small or shrink easily then XL.
I am also happily married going on four years! :-)
As far as horse things I like anything blingy, I like Sore No More products, I like any kind of training tool or anything that I could use on my horse from brushes to MTG to PHT poll packs......you can never have too many bell boots! MY ss last year got me lime green bell boots I love and show in!!!

| Yay! This is my first year for SS and I am SUPER excited! A little about me... I'm 25, have approximately that many barn cats (I kid, but it's possible!), the proud momma of 1 super sweet mini Aussie named Lizzy and a herd of broodmares, my barrel horses (or barrel horses in progress) are Lester, Pete, and Savvy. Currently remodeling my horse barn. I am an accountant and have a serious office supply addiction. Crazy socks are great, and mine never match. I usually wear an adult small in shirts or hoodies. Rope halters, lead ropes, hay bags, bucket straps, anything that I can use, I would be thankful to receive. Love love love earrings, makeup, candles.. Basically, I'd be really excited for just about anything.

Location: North Central South Dakota, west of the Might Mo | Guido - 2014-10-09 10:03 AM Had a lot of excitement with this last year, so I'm happy to be involved again!
I'm in my late 20s. I like turquoise and copper colors and accent, but I don't wear jewelry or make up or carry a purse. I have 3 horses and am always in need of a good rope halter. I love chocolate covered coffee beans! I have a Basset Hound who could use a spiffy collar. I would also appreciate some simple rustic kitchen decor like maybe salt shakers. I wear a ladies large top or unisex medium. I enjoy running and cooking. Thank you to my SS last year, Lisa, who was amazing :)
Guido!
I'd love to be your Secret Santa, again! Although I'm not sure I would be as creative this time around!

Location: Mississippi | I am so excited! This is one of my favorite yearly traditions!
I have one horse, named Prada. She is a gray and white APHA mare. I run her in turquoise and purple. She is my whole world! She could always use a new blingy halter, polo wraps, or a new sleazy (she is around 1000 lbs). She also loves Forco and Healthy Coat :)
I am extremely preppy. I love seersucker or monogrammed anything. I wear mostly boutique clothes, and I shop at Buckle, too. Some of my favorite brands are Lauren James, Fraternity Collection, Southern T Shirt Co, etc. I really love t-shirt-especially long sleeves! I also colelct stickers and coozies. I love oversized shirts, so a large or XL is perfect! I am not picky!
When it comes to my riding attire, I am in need of button up shirts badly! I usually wear an XL because of the sleeve length. I love color, but am not big on plaid patterns :)
I LOVE jewelery-especially wire types.
I can't wait to start shopping!!!

| I never know what to write for these!
I currently have 3 horses - Lexi, Bella and Tuff, 4 dogs, a million cats and a goat named Petunia that is the coolest pet ever! Lexi is on her way to a trainer this weekend for the winter, so hopefully when she comes back she will be my all-around/barrel horse. She's super athletic and quick, so I have high hopes for her. Bella is my "steady eddy" that I use for everything and put anyone on. Tuff is my butthead gelding that I really don't use other than to mess around with at the house, but he's a jerk for everyone else so he stays with me!
I mostly trail ride and have always wanted to run barrels, but never actually have! I just got a trailer this year, so lately I've been taking advantage of actually being able to GO somewhere to ride.
My favorite colors are green and blue, but I love neon colors also - hot pink, lime green, etc. I usually wear a size small or medium. I love to read and take my Kindle with me everywhere! I really don't care what I get, I'm just excited to be participating again!
What is something that you'd love to have, but wouldn't really justify spending the money on for yourself?
I always buy plain things even though I love bling!
Do you want something that's horse related, unrelated to horses or a mixture of both?
I would prefer something horse related or a mixture of both.
Name 3 specific items you want
I never seem to have enough halters and lead ropes, I need a witherstrap for one of my horses. I really just want something cool/unique that I may not have thought to buy!
Name your 3 favorite colors
Greens, blues, neon colors
What are your horse colors?(Omit if you said you wouldn't want horse items)
None of them really have any colors, but I tend to buy a lot of turquoise!
Clothing size and type of clothing/stores you like to shop at
S/M for shirts, 27 or 3/4 in jeans. For regular clothes, I shop at Maurices or Old Navy, but I like westerny type clothes too. I'm pretty much always in jeans and a tshirt/hoody/flannel shirt though!

Location: Missouri | Woot! So excited to do this again! Last year was so much fun both shopping AND opening my fabulous goody box. Thank you for having it again.
Alrighty - I'm 45, single mom with two extremely bright, gifted teenagers. 16 yr old son is a total jock, 14 year old daughter ropes, rodeos and queens. I'm currently horseless, as I sold my roping horse when daughter was younger and needed more help. Someday soon I hope - so a colt from El Scorcho or a nice blue roan would be the best Christmas ever! Seriously easy to please, as I'm always the gift shopper and not the shoppee. I was ridiculously excited to get a total surprise present last year with Secret Santa! Now that my kids are a little older I'm starting to try to be "me" again - not just momma.
My third child (and favorite according to the other two) is my Catahoula - Ruger. He is awesome and goes most everywhere with us. He's with me in my avatar. Now, he would love a cool collar with bling/conchos/something - a 19". I keep meaning to get him one but two legged kids always seem to get dibs on stuff. If it wasn't for him I think I would be crazier than I am - he's my grounding point.
I am pretty tiny - 5'5 and a size 0 or 1. Or small/extra small in tops. 6 1/2 in boots if you have a pair you don't ever wear (mine are shot!) LOL. Even though we rodeo most every weekend, I LOVE dressing up. Bling, hip belts, boots, and of course fabulous blingy jewelry and the leather cuff bracelets with metal engraved sayings!! Daughter has "borrowed" most of mine for her queen outfit accessories, so always excited for new! Favorite colors are black, royal blue, turquoise, brown, and purple. Love lacy and satiny tops and underthings, the shorter western style dresses, camis, pretty much anything! Kind of a little funky but not too far out there. Also love warm fuzzy fleece or flannel jammie type pants. I have just discovered fancy headbands - both beaded and blinged - would always appreciate another! Accessories are awesome! And the wild print leggings! I love makeup (especially eye makeup and lip stains) and perfumes (doesn't have to be subtle!). Anything fun, sassy, and classy!
Hobbies: chasing two teenagers and hauling daughter and her horse on the weekends plus ropings, helping her with her 2 year old filly she is starting, reading (like murder/crime type novels especially), I time at rodeos for one association, take thousands of pictures each month - mainly of kids at track/basketball/rodeo so picture frame or anything along those lines, shoot trap some still with the kids. Other than sneaking in a book once in a while, I guess the kids are my hobby.
General likes: Chocolate (especially dark chocolate), coffee!!!, peppermint bark, alcohol (yes please! But not beer or wine - tequila, whiskey, rum, flavored vodka...!), gummy bears, pretty smelly things for the house and trucks/trailer - especially honeysuckle or a man's cologne, western/rustic home decor, snuggly blankets
General dislikes: Again, I will be completely excited about whatever I get from Santa (especially if it's the colt)!! Random - hate Coke (live on Pepsi and coffee), not a sports fan (unless one of my kids is playing!), I cook so kids don't starve - not bad at it but don't enjoy it, my housekeeping is way behind so a maid would be awesome, I can't stand coconut anything smell or taste, not into neon colors really (but do like the non fluorescent lime green especially paired with royal blue)
That's all I can think of at the moment! So looking forward to finding out who I'm buying for and shopping - it was a blast last year.
