Not that long ago I received a very special package in the mail from my pal Sharkie‘s grandma.
Not only did it include this adorable handmade sweater for me, but also some super fun items for my sister and I to enjoy.
Seriously how cute are these poncho, booties, and cowgirl boots for my little sister? I just know she’s absolutely going to love them once she gets here.
But my favorite thing of all was this super awesome bear cowl!
Does it make me look ferocious and bear-like? Well not too ferocious, you know, because I don’t want to be scaring my sister.
Speaking of my sister, Sharkie’s Grandma made her one too! How cool is that!
Since I knew these beautifully made items would be so much fun for my sister and I to wear, I thought it would be appropriate to start practicing my story-time skills (with a bear theme of course) for when she gets here. Unfortunately I don’t own Goldilocks and the Three Bears (you better get on that mom!), but I do have this really fun book about National Parks*, and you all know how much I love the great outdoors!

And of course it has bears! Maybe someday I’ll get to take my sister on a fun road-trip to visit these national parks in person (some of which I’ve already visited myself – and saw bears in too!)
Now I just have to wait for my sister to get here so I can actually read it to her!
Thanks to Suzanne for her amazing crocheting skills. My sister and I will treasure these items always!
Do you have any recommendations for fun bear-themed books I can read to my sister when she comes?
