Tornado to close to home..........

A tornado dropped in southeast Aurora Sunday afternoon just 2 miles from my home. It was rated an EF-1 on the Enhanced Fujita scale with wind speeds around 100 mph. Did some mild damage to the beautiful Southlands Mall & our new Lowes. Here at home we had strong winds and golf ball size hail. Had some damage to our windows and glass door. I had just purchased some beautiful flower baskets a week before and did not have time to save those. The storm hit so fast. The hail was so loud on the windows and roof, it was really hard to keep Tiffani calm during the storm. She hates thunder. The weather is always scary this time of year.

Surgery for Tiffani

I have not posted in awhile and have not been designing bears for

about the last 3 weeks. My little Tiffani tore her acl and we had the

TTA surgery on Monday. The poor sweety, she tore the acl in the

left leg last year . Thank goodness she only has 2 back legs. She is

doing great and her soft cast comes off tomorrow. It is a slow healing

process, no stairs, jumping, running for 6 weeks.

I hope to get back to bears very soon. Tiff says Hi!

New Art Print

I have purchased another print from Amber Alexander

I just love her animal art...........she is so talented.

This print is named "My Baby"

A formal portrait of a very serious kitty who found a stray poodle-esque dog and adopted her as her own. This kitty has a VERY strong nurturing instinct as normally these two probably wouldn't get along so well. Kitty even carries her around in her dress, all the while referring to the little dog as "My Baby, My Baby". What luck to have found such a kind feline soul.

Look what I won..........

Look what I won........Ann Marie of BEAR ME TOO had a drawing on her blog to win this adorable bear. And I was the winner........I'm way excited to be having Little Mae come and live with me.

UPDATE: Little Mae arrived today in the cutest gift box, she is adorable...I love her to bits!!!

thanks again Ann Marie!

The Hotel Colorado

I was going through some boxes in our basement this last weekend and came across a teddy bear my husband purchased for me during our stay at the famous Hotel Colorado, in Glenwood Springs Colorado back in 2000....brought back some wonderful memories......It is a wonderful place to visit and the hot springs feel sooooooooo good. And best of all, lots of Teddy Bears!

In 1905, Hotel Colorado became the temporary home for the President of the United States and his assistants during a three-week bear hunting expedition. Already a fan of the state of Colorado, Roosevelt stayed at the Hotel Colorado on multiple occasions. On a three-week trip in January 1901, the Vice-President hunted mountain lion on the Keystone Ranch near Meeker. It was reported by his guide that Colonel Roosevelt hung over a cliff to shoot a wounded lion between the eyes. Roosevelt’s first trip to Glenwood Springs delighted him so much that he returned year after year.

According to legend, the world's most irresistible toy, the teddy bear, received its birth at Hotel Colorado. To cheer Theodore Roosevelt after an unsuccessful day of hunting, Hotel Colorado maids presented him with a stuffed bear pieced together with scraps of fine material. Later, when he did bag a bear, his daughter Alyce admired it saying, "I will call it Teddy." The term caught on and became the name for the world's most popular toy, the Teddy Bear.
