Bear is growing.

Ok, Bear has been growing and had his first hair cut. My Dad calls him bearly there now. He is still sweet and loveable and I just love him. He is so soft and will be much better off for summer. Maggie gets clipped by me, and she is due too. We are all ready for summer now.

Maggie and bears summer gear.

Maggie got the hang of her new life vest, but bear was not at all interested in sitting still long enough. He is all excited about his sitters new dew but only from a distance. Hopefully by summer he will understand what this is all about.

Lil Bear, MY new baby.

This is Lil Bear, my sweet new baby. He will be companion to Maggie,

my other sweet lil baby.He's been here 3 hrs and has fit right in. Loves to be held and hugged, loved just like the rest of us. Lil bear is a purebred toy puddle for all you dog lovers. I'm sitting here and he is doing the same thing Maggie does when here. Trying very hard to pull my arm down from the keyboard to lay is TINY 2 inch head on. Sweet, Sweet, Sweet Lil Bear, my love.

North Country leaves and acorns

My leaves and acorns went all over the place for gifts this season. I have many more in the kiln to be fired and a bowl for my sister. These pics are the ones also that I gave her. I made the leaves as true to color as I found them this fall,very vibrant and red.

Christmas Greetings, Happy New Year

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

This is on of the little postman on my tree. Friends have given me mail man characters or ornaments for Christmas for years since I work for the Post Office. He is so cute and greets every one at this time of year.Christmas was great and filled to the brim with love and cheer and family and friends at my home. I hope everyone felt the love that was flowing over the top this holiday season.

TOBY the Turtle

This is TOBY the Turtle. He has a new home with the church in Hammond and I'll bet he is extremely happy and will be loved by many children. He was a joy to make and I hope to have the inspiration to make another one soon. I have been so busy making Christmas gifts that I haven't gotten back making things with clay.
