Do you like games?

Thank-you for all of your condolence hugs and messages. I've been trying to find quiet things to occupy our days. The other day, I decided we needed some fun. I got out one of my Christmas presents.

It was a good day to play my new game Farkel. Barnsie, Scruffy and Barnes all said they wanted to play.

Scruffy and lifes ups and downs...

When I woke this morning, I heard Barnes asking Scruffy what was wrong with his balloon?

By the time Buster and I got downstairs,

Ladies Tea and a Spy Bear want-a-be...

Well the day of the big Ladies Tea has arrived. Clara and Winnie were so busy getting everything ready for this afternoon. I didn't get a chance to tell Clara, I'd decided to be of service to the girls as a waiter. So I just showed up about 1:30p.m. all dressed up and ready to work. Clara had just finished decorating the little cakes and setting them on the tray.There were 12 Ladies on the guest list. Including one of the founding bears of our hug Tricia Jean. I know it's not polite to talk about a ladies age, but she has been here for 30 years! I'm really glad Clara invited her to come speak to the ladies. I hoped she'd tell one of her stories from back at the beginning of our hug.

Earlier this morning I'd heard the guys whispering. I think they're up to something, I noticed that Tigg's camouflage outfit was missing from the closet when I was getting dressed. Grr, I hope they don't spoil the day for the girls.

Girls and tea parties...

What is it about girls and fancy tea parties? When my Aunt Cheryl was here recently she brought her two girl bears for a visit. She must think mom does bearby-sitting, because she left them here while she moves. So the girl bears around here are busy planning a big tea party for Saturday.

They even made and printed invitations. I managed to get hold of one. Look here it is, see what it says, there along the side?No Boys! Can you believe it?!!! No boys---hey
