E-beertje wants a garden bench

(March 4, 2010)

Yesterday, A little bear called me....

and it sounded rather compelling!

Mmm.....M-tje!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey lazy bear, are you enjoying the sunshine?

Huh...what's that you have on your nose?

Sunglasses M-tje!!!

I'm soooo cool

pfff, I know they are called sunglasses E-beertje...

just didn't know you had them!

Yes, you're a very cool bear

But why did you call me?

You seem to have it all...

lying in the sun, company from Max, a refreshment!

What else do you want?

I want a garden bench M-tje!!!!

This tree is okay for a while,

but my buttocks start to hurt!

So euh...could you make me a bench?

Well...I could............

but sweet bear, I really have to clean the windows,

we can't even see the spring coming, so dirty are they!

And after that, I want to do some more chores in my house!

So i won't have any time today to make you a bench!

Maybe later this week, okay?

Hmm, but I want one NOW!

Then you have to make it yourself, you lazy bear

You go and clean your windows M-tje...

I have an idea!!!

So I went to work!

I had no idea what E-beertje was up to,

but an hour later I suddenly heard a strange noise!

I sounded like there was a car coming into our garden!!!!

It really was a car and I heard a car horn!

So I wnet outside and this is what I saw....

ooooooh, E-beertje!!!

I didn't know you could drive a truck (or any other car BTW!)

Did everything go allright???

And where have you been??????

M-tje...it's just a toytruck, they aren't hard to drive at all!!!

I wasn't in the mood to make a bench myself,

so I went to the thrift store to see if they had something suitable!

And look what I found!!!

I love it!!

It's perfect for my garden, don't you think?

Yes, it is very nice...

but also a bit dirty!

Maybe you should clean it first???

Nooooo M-tje...I don't have to eat from it, do I???

Garden furniture has to be a bit dirty,

becuase they always stand outside!

I'm going to put it in my garden now!

Yes, that's the perfect place!

M-tje, do you like the tree in that spot?

Yes E-beertje, I already saw that you replanted the tree,

it looks great there!

Well done

And the bench looks perfect against the fence!

Yes...now all I have to do is get some stuff!

You go and do your chores M-tje!!

I'm very comfortable here with my book!

I'm taking another " negerzoen" (chocolate-coated marshmallow)...

let's see..where was I...mmm...nice and warm in the sun...

zzzzzzzz

Oh...I think E-beertje has fallen asleep

Now I can show you something!

It's such a " coincidence"  

I have almost the same garden bench in 1:12th scale.

I thought it would be fun to show you the difference in scale!

Mini-hugs, E-beertje and M-tje
