You're so kind Laurie , Wendy and Bronwen  :hug:
The little dogs have cotter-pinned heads and thread jointed limbs 

Mini Hugs , Ruth

Wow Jane , you have excelled yourself again with these fabulous photos     
they are a joyful feast for the eyes .... still can't quite believe I was a part of it all 

Thank You so much for re-creating the magic for us - and what a beautiful moment your story was too !  :dance:  :dance:

Hi there Us Bears ,

I did make an Easter inspired miniature this year - she is called Amy , and she has her own little duckling
who is 5/8th of an inch (1.5cm) tall  I don't think she would agree to wearing bunny ears either .... she's a bit
proud ; because she was in this month's Collect It! magazine here in the UK - in fact it was a feature about spring / Easter bears !

:hug:  to you all ,

Ruth

Just popping in to say "thanks" so much ladies  :hug:
I had an amazing day , and all these little friends above have lovely new homes now  :)
Think I need a bit of quiet time this morning !! 

:hug:  :hug:  Ruth

Thank you so much ladies - I really appreciate your positive comments    I am now just going to bed
as I'll be up at the crack of dawn for travelling . I hope my older sons who are left in charge will look after my 2 real little dogs properly
while I'm gone ????   

Look forward to seeing some of you there on Sunday !  :hug:  :hug:

Nighty night ,

Ruth 

Ahhh thanks so much ladies  :hug:

The little Westie ( called Isla) is my favourite too - shhhhhhh 

Back to my whirlwind packing now I've had a cuppa ! 

Ruth

I have about 20 seconds spare to finally put up a few pics of some of the bears (and micro dogs) coming to
Hugglets at the weekend . The bears are 3" or under and the dogs approx' 1.6" tall . Phewwwwww 

Many mini Hugs , Ruth 

I loved the others on the website too Yvonne    Oh no ! I looked at that scary picture of all the people waiting to get in too !! 
Hope to see the bears Sunday ,

Ruth

Ruth

Ahhhhh sweeeet Wendy !    I just know Tina's teddy will get on with all her new little friends   

:hug:

Ruth

      HeeHee Yvonne what are we like ? Not that we're selfish bear obsessed mothers or anything !!!
I'm thinking there might be a lot of arm twisting going on during Saturday for all sorts of goodies "to make up for it" though !!!!

Ruth

Hi Jane ,
I will be  at stand 128 in Hall 4. I am just SO EXCITED !!!! What a dream for me 
My 12 year old son will be accompanying me , and it's his birthday that day ! What better place for him to spend it in !  :crackup:
(Don't worry - he'll get his fill of the Natural History and Science museums in Kensington the day before    )

Nervous Hugs ,
Ruth
