Plymouth's Turkey

This Thanksgiving, the Jr. Reader was Plymouth, who did a great job with all the holiday festivities. He was there when Becky's cousin came for Thanksgiving, and he helped make their video, in which they made a turkey out of paper cups. It even made gobbling noises.  They definitely had so much fun. And he also helped play plenty of games, including hospital and LIFE. Lastly, he was there with Becky to watch her high school football team on TV, and to watch four movies. Gran Torino, Breaking Dawn, Letters to Juliet and the second National Treasure.

Thanks TImbers

This week, with Timbers as Jr. Reader, a lot got done. He was first of an attendant when Elsa visited, but he also did a lot of work this weekend. Along with making plenty of hats, he put together a shoe box for Operation Christmas Child and he also helped decorate the box box that holds all of Becky's journals. Thanks to Timbers for doing so much this week! Next week, we will have the Thanksgiving post which will include Plymouth.

Globes and Hats

So I am going to be doing a double post, because I didn't get to post about Count until this week. So, Count was Jr. Reader for Halloween, and he even went Trick-or-Treating. Then, he made a Glitter Globe as shown in the picture, with the Batman ring, The, he did the first part of Elsa's visit, where he played many games and had a lot of fun.

Then, this week, Washington D.C. bear was Jr. Reader, and he did a lot of awesome things. The first of them was finishing up Elsa's visit, in which he made a workout video. Then, later in the week, he founded Helping Hats, a program for Becky to make hats for those in need. Then, he went to the Lone Elk part with Becky, because it's soon closing. It was a good drive and trhey had so much fun on it.

Pumpcat Makes Cookies

So, another new week, and another new Jr. Reader. This week he did a lot, including create a really fun Halloween gifts for all of Becky's friends and he also made some cool decorations for the B-Toys Halloween party. He also made some exciting sugar cookies with chocolate frosting.

He did a great job prepping for Halloween, which Count will now take over.

Happy almost Halloween!

Casper the Friendly Ghost

In the picture above, you see Casper with a lot of things. These are all his achievements for the week. He contributed in making a lot of Halloween gifts for all of Becky's friends. Maybe not the edible part, because that is coming for a little bit later, but the non-edible part, he did make.

In the front, you see a multitude of finger puppets of all Halloween stuff. Ghosts, owls, spiders and cats. Then, right next to it, you see a blue beacelet with beads. Kind of similar to the ones around Casper's neck and arms. These are all things that he helped make. The bracelet on the ground is for one of Becky's friends, who he made a birthday gift for earlier this week. He decided to make her a bracelet because he had already given her all of the finger puppets. The bracelet around his neck is a friendship bracelet of Becky's that he helped make. And the one around his arm is his matching friendship bracelet that he helped make. His has a ghost puppet on it.

Stay spooky!

Bonses Spooks Some More!

Congrads to Bonses for having a wonderful week as Jr. Reader. Hopefully, he really appreciated it, as Becky definitely appreciated having him. He helped out on some of the Halloween festivities, with a lot of stuff that Becky is doing right now. Such as a dance she has to perform, and a lot of studying stuff.

So, above is a picture of a gift that he made for one of Becky's friends, because it was her birthday. We would like to wish her a happy birthday, and hopefully, she liked the cookies, because we definitely enjoyed making them.

And now, Casper is Jr. Reader, which we are all very excited for. Hopefully, he'll have fun, and do a lot of good work.

Thanks again guys,

And Owl for an Owl

Hey everyone! So, the fun of this month has begun, with Halloween making a great kickoff to this year's October. First things first, he gave me some really awesome Halloween craft ideas, and we made them out of supplies that we had at home. He also helped design the set for the new Halloween Fashion Show video made by Becky and Elsa. It was great of him to do so. To do this, he used some really awesome materials gotten at a craft store. As you can see there is an owl on his shoulder. That was part of the Halloween craft kit he decided would be a good idea to buy. And it surely was with all the fun from making all  the creatures and how great it looked.

To thank him for all his hard work, we gave him the owl that is on his ear, and we know he will wear it proudly, because he did such a wonderful job starting off Halloween.

And there's still more fun to come with Bonses making his debut as Jr. Reader and thinking up some awesome Halloween ideas.

Great job Halloween!

Hamburger Cupcakes!

A lot of thanks to Bushy for preparing an interesting looking and yummy sweet treat for himself and all the toys!

Yes. This Friday, he and Becky helped bake an awesome batch of cupcakes. They were really yummy and they were shaped like hamburgers. It took a lot of time, effort and precision to make these cupcakes and it wasn't an easy task for him. But, I'm sure taking just one bite of them was the most amazing thing in the world. Great job, Bushy!

Move

Hey everyone!

I am here to report that all the toys have moved into the closet in grandma's old room today. It was really nice for us, because we got to have more space and be more close with our families and friends. Eveyrthing is running smoothly and all the toys are really excited to have this new space.

And, now I'm happy to report that there will be one activity each week, depending on the Jr. Reader for that week and what they want to do.

Anyway, as always, thanks for reading!

New Toys

Three new members have been added to our community.

Firstly, there's Prickles, who is an adorable Ty porcupine. He was a gift from Becky's mom right before she left for Nashville and G.A.M.E.S. Camp.

The second, Stephen. She's a horse from the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville. That's where Becky got her. She named her Stephen after the conductor, Stephen Hatfield, who did the Crossroads Children's Chorus Festival.

Thirdly, there's Failweasel, who Becky got after touring a robotics lab at G.A.M.E.S. Camp. She's named after a sum-robot that Becky and her partner created that ended up winning the competition.

Please welcome these three toys into our loving family.

Blog again soon

Movie Night

Because of Boog being Jr. Reader this week, Becky decided to buy Open Season 3 on DVD and play it last night for all of us toys who are out for the summer program at B-Toys. All eyes were focused on the movie from it's beginning to it's end, and it was great that everyone enjoyed it.

We really enjoyed it, and we think it was really cool that we all got to participate in a really fun activity.

Thanks to Boog, for starring in such a wonderful movie for everyone to watch. And thanks to Becky for deciding to have such a fun activity.

Well, that's all for now.

Thanks to Panderscilla!

Because of all of her hard work to help, Panderscilla has been given a pillow, made by Becky completely. It is very beautiful, and she really likes it.

"Ohh my new pillow! It is so cute!" According to that quote, Panderscilla really loves that pillow, and hopefully, she'll really enjoy using it every single night that she goes to sleep now that she's been Becky's eating coach. Gosh, that must be hard work.

Anyway, we thank Panderscilla for all her hard work and everything that she's done.

Pandu's Friendly House

After Becky got home from Chicago, she realized that our community itself needs an active home for kids who don't have homes themselves. So, Panderscilla created Pandu's Friendly House. This is a house for all the small toys that aren't with families currently, and can't find families.

The employees include Orca, Whaletail and Splash. And, when you walk in, you will see Silver at the front desk. The owner is Panderscilla, who is very active in the building of the house.

So far, the house is not open for use, because there are still finishing touches that need to be made. So far, the carpeting, front desk, sculpted candy ice cream in honor of Becky's current team in Camp Happy Heart. And also, a pool has just been added. However, there are still plenty of things needed to be added. This blog will be updated on the opening of the house.
