Happy Mothering Sunday!

Well, a certain Wheelie, who will remain nameless, thought he was the only one remembering this special day.

But, NO way!

We Bear Hug members have, our very own card for Mother...

And, I personally, sneaked into the garden to pick her a real bunch of flowers too - Celandine's, no less...Know she will love them!

I certainly do - their little yellow selves are as sunny as the sun they adore, when it goes to bed, they close their faces up and go to sleep as well.

And, a Happy Mother's Day too, to Mothers everywhere.

We would be lost without your love and care.

And, miss those who are no-longer with us.
Hugs,

Two Blue Bears!

Now to the efficient of you, it will come as a shock, when I report that Mother, although home from her travels over a week, had not got around to unpacking her suitcase till this very morning!!!

But, I have graciously, forgiven her this tardiness, in light of a certain youngster who emerged from the bowels of the said case.

Allow me to introduce Little Vegas, LV for short...

Mother's Gentleman friend bought him for her on their last night together.

But, she says I can be responsible for his Hug schooling.

And, I quickly realised, I was about to re-united siblings, if not, twinlings, separated @ birth and by vast continents.

You see what I mean...

Blue Bonnet with her flowers, came all the way from Selangor, Malaysia.

She was a delightful and unexpected Christmas 2007 gift from the Golden One, Rossi...Mother misses him greatly, as he no longer blogs, due to now having a small humanoid in his family!

It is very sad when friends are no longer in touch.

Hugs,

True Colours Thursday - GREEN!

My participation in Mother's colour meme was in jeopody again this week, as I have no GREEN Bears!
But, once more dear Miss Merry came to my rescue.
She donned her GREEN spotted Neckerchief & modelled Grand Mother's fun broach and Mothers GREEN Adventurine bracelet & earrings...What a great girl she is!
Hugs,

Postscript:-
It seems I am now, the host of Wheelie Wednesday.
Mmm, NOT sure about this!
I would have much prefered it, if Mother had consulted me first.
Miss Judy is fine; a classy wiry wheelie lass.
But, that Bailey is another matter.
There maybe friction ahead!

Wheelie Wednesday - Bailey catches up!

"Hallo Everyone, Bailey here, @ last!

Crikey, it's been a while since I got to post.

Every one's been having fun except me - weep/whinge!

Mistress got to go on holiday.

And, what does she do?

But, put that snooty bear Woodstock in charge of the house.

I ask you!

What was she thinking off???

He makes out he's all pure & refined, yet I caught him gambling & with that religious boy John 2 too, here's the proof...

Even, my so called, best buddy Skipper got to play cards...

Somehow, my invitation to the gaming table got lost in the post - pouting here!

However, never let it be said, that I'm not a tittle-tattle.

I won't tell Mistress.

But, I'm going to get myself in favour with her this weekend & hopefully earn myself a treat.

You see, it's Mothering Sunday & I'm ahead of the game.

I've just signed my greetings card...Had it hand made specially for Mistress Blue too, in her favourite colour...

Do you think she'll like it???

Since, that Foxy Wheelie Sis of mine Judy, prefers the Bear Hug's company to mine, she's always having tea with them, she can send her own card!!!

Till next time, keep paw happy!
Bye-de-Bye,

x"

P.S.

Just realised I've moved blogs.

Err, Wheelie Wednesday is now hosted by his lordship, Sir Woodstock!

Opps, maybe in serious trouble now.

I do really like you Woodstock, no offence was meant in this post.

But, am sooo sad Mistress felt the need to do this.

Isn't blogging for escapism & fun???

Just because she crossess the thresholds between blogs, why hate her?

Happy Saint Patricks Day!

Gaming Bears!

Just thought I would let you into a secret!
There is an old saying that goes 'While the cats away, the mice will play!'
Well, while Mother was away, guess what we bears were doing???...Yes, gambling the days away, not quite Las Vegas Style however the best we could do...Am not quite sure what game we actually played!
But, please do not tell Mother, as I lost my posterior!
Hugs,

True Colours Thursday - VIOLET & Little Buddy!

Well, thankfully Mother landed safely back from Las Vegas yesterday.
I must admit, I was pleased to see her, even though, she appears to be far from happy about being home.
She seems to be suffering from the international flyer's disease called jet-lag & a peculiarity of her own, called missing Little Buddyitus!
I been giving her lots of comforting hugs, which has meant my mohair's got tear wet in return - Mmm!

So, with all this going on, I feared I would not have the opportunity to participate in True Colours, as Mother seemed un-inclined to help me take new photographs.
I therefore, have had to be resourceful and look in her Las Vegas portfolio.
Fortunately, she missed this shot of VIOLET Pansies out on her own post about Bellagio's Conservatory...

And, as I like to use today, to personally introduce my colourful Hug members individually to you all, I am going to sneak in too, an old snapshot found in the Bear Photographic Archives of non-VIOLET Little Buddy, with as small framed mid 1980's picture of the gentleman he's named after ...Mother says both are equally cuddlesome!
He, LB bear was given to her by her cousin Headmistress, whilst on a Prairieland vacation; he was to comfort her, after Little Budddy, the love interest had left the farm to return to his wife!
Hugs,

A Postcard from Mother!

As you may know, Mother left me in charge of the Household Hug & hurried off to Las Vegas, to meet her Gentleman Friend, known as Little Buddy!!!
She was soooooooooooooooooo preoccupied, she did not even post for True Colours Thursday re Yellow!!!
Tutt, tutt!
I just wonder, what she / they got up too in the States!!!
I hear anything goes in Nevada.
Anyway, I have finally, received an Internet postcard.
And, what is it off???
A snail, in the fancy Conservatory Gardens in the Bellagio Hotel...
I really ask you - could she not have found a bear some where???
Hugs,

True Colours Thursday - YELLOW!

I have only one real YELLOW bear, in the Hug!
That is of course Pudsey the BBC's 'Children in Need' famous mascot!
Mother wrote about his arrival @ the time, but I will quickly reprise.
'Children in Need' now a registered charity, raises money to 'make a positive difference to the lives of disadvantaged children & young people throughout the UK'.
This annual fund raising event, started in November 1980, but it was not until 1985, that host Terry Wogan introduced a cuddly brown called Pudsey.
He proved so popular, he returned as 'Children in Need's official mascot the following year with a re-vamped image, that of a YELLOW bear with a red spotted bandage over one eye!
Since then, he's gone of from strength to strength, sponsoring events large & small.
However, last year in time for the 28th fundraiser, Pudsey had a make over; ie a multi-coloured spotted scarf!
Mother subsequently found these guy, in their old colour scarf, donated by retailer Boots to the Helen & Douglas House Children's Hospice charity shop in town, she snapped the twins up...Thankfully, she did not keep both of them.
One quickly went to bear friend Edwards Hug.
So, when, I arrived there was just a single Pudsey to contend with...He's a cheaky YELLOW fellow!

Happy St David's Day!

We three, Miss Merry, Miss Judy & myself, thought, we would share our Daffodils with you today, as they are the National Flower of Wales, whose patron saints day it is.
Happy St Davids Day!

Hugs from us all,
