A Bear Day Wish...

I put on my party hat to attend my friend Sir Woodstock's Bear Day party.

The invitation said wear a fancy hat. I hope getting all dressed up in my suit, makes up for my hat not being so fancy.

Woodstock, I wish you many happy returns of the day on your special day! Now, where is the cake? And is it chocolate?

Things around here have become quite a mess. It's the annual transition from fall to Christmas decorations, looks like a bomb went off. Mom said no pictures till she gets things under control.

She is going to be busier than she has been the last couple of weeks. She got a new sewing machine, it embroiders. Sewing machines have taken a quantum leap since she got her last one 20 years ago. So, she is spending a lot of time learning all the bells and whistles of the machine and software. She says that teaching an old bear new tricks may take some time. Her first project is to make the grand nephew Ethan a Christmas stocking. She says when it's done I can show it to you. In the meantime...I'll keep hoping for her to make me some more cool clothes.

Grr-bye for now,

This bear is thankful for...

 

Just like the pilgrims were thankful for the feast they shared with the Indians, as a bear I am thankful for...

Honey...
I am thankful for honey. Around here, there are so many bears, that mom and dad always use code when speaking of honey. They call it "H", I think they are afraid of a bearpede.

Last flowers, the last tenants...

Saturday the weather was still mild, and I begged mom to let me go outside. She said yes, so I put my hoodie on and went out in the front yard. I looked to see if there were any flowers

still growing after the heavy frost we had the other night. The hearty mums and the alyssum are still hanging in there. Mom says alyssum is supposed to be an annual flower. But ours

Candy B. Corn's search for candy corn...

We have a couple of new visitors from Bear Tower in Chicago. Brother T brought them out when he came for dinner and to take Scruffy home with him. I heard there are lots of bears that live there I haven't met yet.

Cocoa has been getting to know Buddy Bear. I was just about to join them when I saw this.

Todays Three Bears...

Grr-bye for now,
