2015 Summer Fun Photo Contest RESULTS

Hello everyone, and thanks for sending in your 2015 Summer Fun Photo Contest entries.  I will be reviewing the 12 submitted entries today and picking a random winner at the very end!

Entry #1: Beanie Mouse - "RAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHRRR"
Beanie obviously has no fear here.  A brave little mouse can take on a big scary lion.  Remember, it doesn't matter if you are big or small, but what matters is what's on the inside.



Entry #2: Bearlinda Bear - "Bearlinda Bear with Dudley Dinsdale"
An excellent sand drawing of a bear!  This is beary cool and I will have to try that next time I am at the beach.


Entry #3: Benaud, Chloe, and Hicks - "Summer Dreaming as we slip-slide in mid-winter Australian Sunshine"
Benaud, Chloe, and Hicks are from Australia.  I forgot that they are still in winter down there so they submitted a winter fun photo, complete with their winter jackets and outfits!



Entry #4: Droopy W. Dog"Soc" it to me!
Looks like Droopy is having lots of fun here with his pals Spunky and Patch.  My question is, who won the soccer game?  Soccer is an excellent sport to play in the summer (and fall)!


Entry #5: Jerry and Ben - "Summer Fun is having a Independence Day picnic in the garden!"
Wow!  Leave it to Jerry and Ben to have the most lovely and delicious picnic!  Here they are enjoying some dainty sandwiches (I wonder what kind of sandwiches they are) and grapes set out on a blue gingham blanket.  Martha Stewart, watch out...


Entry #6: Little Ach Good - "Sand Angel"
Now this is something you don't see that often.  Here is Little making a sand angel - how clever!  I thought you could only make snow angels but now I will have to try this the next time I go to the beach.


Entry #7: Little Fox - "Checking out some new real estate in Colorado.  This house has a great view but it looks like a fixer upper."
Here is an entry from Little Fox, who seems to be out adventuring again.  What a great picture!  I think he should buy a home out in the middle of the forest and on top of some mountains.


Entry #8: Ozzie Quirkybear - "Galapagos Tortoise - Slow and Steady wins that Race!"
This really cool photo is from Ozzie Quirkybear.  I know Ooogie would really like it, and he has to agree about slow and steady winning the race!


Entry #9: Ryko - "Ryko the Squeaky Rat"
This next picture is from Ryko the rat, who is all dressed up in a super stylish plaid coat.  Where did you get that coat, may I ask?  It looks like BEARberry.


Entry #10: Scooter Wojak - "Summer is the best time to go skate boarding!"
Next up is a picture from Scooter Wojak.  Wow, Scooter looks like a really cool skater stuffie!  Rock on dude!


Entry #11: Teddy Tedaloo - "Peejayday chilledlaxeding"
Here is a pic of Teddy Tedaloo relaxing in his favorite peejays.  Aaahhh, now that looks really relaxing.


Entry #12: Alexander Mackenzie Bear aka Sandy - "Bear in a 'Boat'"
And last, but not least, is Sandy Bear in a "boat" relaxing on a river.  Sandy took a little bit of a bath in this lake, heh heh...


And the winner is... let me pull a name from my trusty fishbowl...


...Teddy Tedaloo!  Congrats Teddy!  You will be receiving your surprise fun pack in the mail soon.


Thanks to everyone who entered this contest and have a beary good --- WAIT!

My contest manager has just informed me that there are 2 winners for this contest, so I will pull another name from the fishbowl!  The second winner is...

Have a beary good day everyone!

Mail

"Hmm... junk mail... bills..." Uncle Tibbs murmured.


"Hey Uncle Tibbs, what are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm sorting through the mail," he sighed.  "There are bills for me, junk mail for me, more bills for me..."


"Aha!  Here's a piece of fun mail," he said.  His brow furrowed as he read the envelope.  "Oh.  It's for you, Ajdin."

"Cool!  It's a bearthday card from Jerry and Ben!" I said happily.


"Oh, there's a postcard too -- from EGYPT!" Uncle Tibbs said.  He looked disappointed as he read the back.  "This one is for you also, Ajdin."  He handed it to me.

"Oh COOL!" I exclaimed.  "It's a postcard from my friend Fritzel Ranßweiler."


"I'm noticing a trend here," said Uncle Tibbs.  He picked up the last piece of mail.  "Hey, this is a cool package of jellybeans..."

"Look!  There's a note from Little Fox that says Happy Bearthday Ajdin!" I said.

"WHEN WILL I GET FUN MAIL??" sighed Uncle Tibbs.


He took out his checkbook and began paying the bills.

"Ajdin, promise me that you will never grow up.  It's not as fun when you are an adult stuffie," he said.

"I promise," I said, chewing on some jellybeans.  "Here... *chew* ...have some... *chew* ...jellybeans, Uncle Tibbs.  Maybe that will... *chew* ...make you... *gulp* ...feel better."

Thanks for the fun mail everyone!  Have a beary good day!

Backpack

Today I was just walking along when I spotted a blue backpack lying on the ground.  There was a Mysterious Note that read, "FOR AJDIN."

Now, the last time that I received a Mysterious Note like this, it was for a pair of pants, so I was a little skeptical.  But the backpack was a cool, blue geometric print and had a picture of a bear on it.  I picked it up.


And it also seemed to be the perfect size for me.  I put it on.


How does it look?  I never had a backpack before.  I wonder why the Mysterious Note gave this backpack to me.  Does anyone have any guesses?  Perhaps it was meant to carry lots of salmon and honey jars.
