Build-a-Bear

Today we made a trip up to Build-a-Bear.  Handley and Harper had both gotten gift cards for this store for their birthdays (Thank you Davis and Mason!) and we had promised to take Avery with us for her birthday present.  All the kids had fun choosing their bear, helping stuff it, and giving it a heart with a big wish.  It's no surprise that the big girls choose matching pink bears with matching pink dresses and matching pink names (Pink-a-Bear and Pink-a-Bell).  Harper liked her bear too until I put it in her spot in the stroller.  She pulled it out as fast as she could and threw it on the ground.  I guess she didn't want it taking over her seat.



After Build-a-Bear we made our way to the food court for a Chick-fil-a lunch and then a quick stop by the candy store before heading home.  It was a great outing and a fun way to spend our day.

Good idea about stopping at the candy store! We always take Ella to the candy store at the beach; I just didn't remember that we have some locally too!

ok, so I'm just now getting caught up on all of the posts. The beach pictures are just adorable, and I'm so happy Handley had such a fun time at your parents. Why does it always seem like kids grow a mile when they are away from home??? Handley looks so much more growny in these pictures!

The build a bear pics are also way cute. What sweet friends Handley and Avery are. What a blessing to have such awesome neighbors!
