Teddy Bears' Picnic 2013

Today I was volunteering for the National Trust at the Rippon Lea House and Garden's annual Teddy Bears' Picnic!


Here are some shots of the garden including the waterfall and fernery:







My husband was dutifully bear-sitting (and taking these photos) all day while I was working.



He also made sure Graduation Bear had a healthy lunch of...what else but Tiny Teddies!


Meanwhile my first job was minding the Ripplea Bear and making sure he got as many cuddles as possible.



There were lots of things for the kids to do...



...and Peppa Pig even came to visit!


My last job for the day was saying goodbye to all our picnic guests and stamping them with Ripplea Bear's paw-print.


A hot, but very fun day!
