HI! It is me Everet Bear, today is my first birthday. I did so much in my first year. I trained along side Delisle Doherty and his son Nick and climbed to base camp on Mount Everest. I nearly died on the mountain when Delisle nearly knocked me off a cliff 3,000 feet to my death. Good thing I was able to grab hold. It was so funny when Nicks boogers froze in his beard. Good times! I also trained along side Rich Bonn as he reaches his goal to lose 100 pounds for Joe Joe Bear Foundation to raise money. He pledged $10 per pound lost up to 100 by June. I have to say he is half the man he was as he has almost already hit his goal.
I do have to say my favorite part of this past year has been working as the spokes bear for Joe Joe Bear Foundation. It is so rewarding knowing that I am helping put smiles on sick childrens faces. I know how important a bear is as Joe had Joe Joe bear by his side until he past. That bear stayed by his side when no one else could be, like when he went for testing.
I had so much fun today for my birthday! First I went to lunch at Panera Bread on I-10 in Katy. I made so many new friends there. I even had my picture taken with them. We are havign trouble uploadign them to the website so wehn we get that fixed they will be posted. Then we went bear shopping. Oh how I love that! It is so much fun shopping for bears as I know that it will make so many sick kids happy and put smiles on their faces.
I was going to go out for a cupcake tonight but it is really cold outside so I’m going to wait until tomorrow when it is a little warmer. But they are making me double chocolate chocolate chip cookies. I think I am going to have a big glass of milk with them. Yummmy!!
Well good night! I’ll check in tomorrow ans see how you all are. Stay warm!

Happy birthday! And congratulations on all your accomplishments your first year–LOL!!
