Aleta - The Silly Bear Dec 16, 2005

Oh dear sweet Clare, Montgomery has arrived!!!       I absolutely adore him!!  He's the sweetest bear ever......and so handsome!!       He was a little overwhelmed by all the excitement at first, with a crown and tea party in his honor,  :redface:  but he's adjusting quite well this morning.  It looks like a certain Aussie bear by the name of Matilda has taken quite a fancy to him.  She told me just this morning she can barely breathe when he's around and her paws get all sweaty.  I think she's in LOVE!     I think we're all in love with Montgomery!!!  Thank you, thank you, thank you Clare!!   :hug:

Oh my gosh he's WONDERFUL! What a handsome bear!!! Aleta, you and Clare couldn't have been better paired to trade bears!!!

OOOHH!! GORGEOUS! I wanna join the teddy bear tea party!

Shelli Retired Help Advisor, Banner SponsorDec 16, 2005

I agree with Daphne; what a terrific swap, with end results to fit so beautifully with one another's style and, apparently, also, home decor!

Aleta... I'm coming to move in with you, to be surrounded by antique pine, white linens, posy-painted teacups, and teddy bears.  Just FYI...

Faaabulous !!!!

Aleta - The Silly Bear Dec 16, 2005

My dear Shelli, 
You're always welcome here.  We have a big house with two guestrooms and a pool (though it has a lovely layer of ice on it at the moment!).  The bears and I love company!!      Make your reservations early though.....the summer months book up fast at Le Hotel de Breese!!     If you say it with a french accent it sounds really cool!   

Hugs and hugs and hugs,   :hug:
