At the "Washing" Station....Washing their new bunnies

On Saturday, Samantha, Alden & I met up with our friends Brianna, Alexa, and Mary (Brianna's mom) at Oakview Mall. We ate lunch with them at the food court and then went to Build-A-Bear workshop, where we made some new furry friends. Samantha & Alden were using gift cards from Christmas from Grandma & Grandpa Merritt and Alexa got a gift card from us for her birthday in December.

Alexa and Samantha both choose bunnies to build and Alden chose a Polar Bear (okay...so I chose the Polar Bear). Samantha showed Alexa how to do it and I was very impressed at how mature she acted! She told the build a bear employees that she was "two" and also showed them her fingers that she held up to show them she was 2 years old. She did everything they asked of her. She jumped up and down, she pushed on the pedal to stuff her bunny, and she kissed the heart and spun around! She had a lot of fun. She named her bunny "Hoppy" and Alexa named her bunny "Flowers" and they dressed them a like and put a spring looking pink dress on the bunnies. I dressed Alden's polar bear in a KC Royals Uniform and named him "Royal."

After building the bears, we headed to JcPenney to get the girls' pictures taken. (They won't be in for 2 weeks, then I'll post them on the blog).

Which turned out adorable!!!
