Jami, so sorry to hear about everyone being sick!! I hope that you are all feeling better by now.
Brenda, your brother's place reminds me of my parent's cabin. Growing up, we spent 2/3 of the summer there in the woods, miles from any other people. My brother and I would hike into the woods and spend all day playing out there with a back pack full of snacks. My mom would give us each a whistle and tell us if we encountered a bear or an animal of any kind to blow the whistle as loud as we could and try to appear bigger. We never encountered anything out there so never really thought there was much of a bear population. Recently my parents got a motion activated camera and mounted it to the front of their cabin. There has been ALOT of bear activity on the porch, a mom with cubs and a very large male. It's been incredible to see all the activity around the cabin, but I felt a little bit surprised that we had spent all those summers as kids wandering those woods and the bears were just right there!!

Jami, So glad to make your day. Hope you get to take a picture of one in the wild. My brother has a cabin in upper Michigan and he is almost 1 mile off the road. He has bears in his back yard. He has taken pictures of them eating out of his bird feeders. I think they have even been right up to cabin on the back porch. A little too close for me though lol. Farm Girl Hugs, Brenda

Jami, Thank you! for the Bear cards you made. They turned out really well, I love them. Finally, your package is in the mail. Had to replace my original item. It just didn't look good. You should have it soon.
Thanks again! Hugs, Brenda

Portia - Did your box arrive? I tried sending a box to my aunt the other week and she has STILL not received it (priority mail and it has been almost three weeks) so I am a little paranoid, lol.

Marcy
Aw I am glad you liked everything and that it made you happy and will make you warm in the winter.
I saw those socks on line and ordered them and then when I received them I thought man those are thick socks that is why I asked if you wore boots. Well I am glad your feet will keep warm and cute with them on.
I was hoping you would enjoy the box and you did!
Have a great day!
hugs

Hi Darlene,
The mail man dropped off the most wonderful box. Oh, I just fell in love with everything. I collect boyds bears so the adorable little girl bear won my heart. And the old fashioned bear was just so adorable that I completely fell in love with him...I even named him Henry (I think he looks like a Henry anyway) They are both sitting in front of me, I have them sitting on my serger. My younger son saw the teddy grahams and said "I haven't had those in years" Well, he is nineteen and does not ask for the anymore but of course he ate half of the bag. I haven't had a bit o honey in ages and I forgot how good they were. The other little bears are displayed in my craft room and look so cute. Love the craft kits and the honey and I really love the socks. I hate being cold and unfortunately it get's very cold around here. I think ths socks are going to keep my feet nice and warm when I start complaining about how cold it is.
Thank you so much for everything. The goodies you sent made my day and put a smile on my face.
hugs,
Marcy

I received my package from Marcy today, Everything was just wonderful and she even felted a little bear for me. It is so cute, and there is a beautiful Tea cup and saucer and everything is so nice!I love the bear material with the fat little bears on it and it is patriotic and I really love that. The Bear knitting book is wonderful and the patterns are cute. Thank you also for the popcicle soap bar and the little bottle cap raggedy Ann and Andy and snow men. and thank you so much for the Tea, yellow wash crocheted washcloth and the magazine and the Holly Hobby square, and thank you also for the other cute little bear with it's moving head and arms. I love it all.
Your package went out today.
hugs
darlene

Bonnie, thank you so much for the bear mug rug, I absolutely love it! DH commented "Wow someone worked really hard on that, it's awesome" when he saw it. :) And thank you for the tucks too, can't wait to try the banana bread recipe. I really enjoyed reading your sweet letter on such gorgeous stationary and had to laugh at your neglected flower bed comment as I had just come in from my sad sunflower garden, which is mostly really giant stems because the squirrels are stealing the flowers off! ;)
Your package should arrive either today or tomorrow, I hope you like it!
Thanks again!!!
