Build-A-Bear 2009



For Christmas this year, Grandma and Grandpa Kovach gave all the kids gift cards to Build-a-Bear. (A brilliant idea- not only do they get a gift, they get to make it and they get to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa!) With so many grand kids it would be tricky to go all at once and so tonight was the night the first group. We met up at the mall food court for some dinner and then headed over to Build-A-Bear. Declan was so excited that he was just bouncing around everywhere! He could hardly stand the wait! He decided on Hal the Christmas Moose then changed to Frosty the Snowman then Alvin the Chipmunk and then finally settled on a dog. His absolute favorite part of the whole process is giving the animal a bath after they've been stuffed. He takes it very seriously! This was the first time that he's ever been able to chose anything extra and he was in heaven. He dressed his dog as a Denver Nugget, got it a leash and a dog bed! Tonight when I put him in bed he had it sleep on the floor on it's dog bed because he said dog's aren't supposed to sleep with us... Delaney got a long eared rabbit with a cute little pink track suit and bows on the ears! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for a fun night out, these will definitely be cherished memories!
