Spring Break

It was spring break last week in Big Lake. It was just by chance that I also had a break from my school in St. Cloud. I took Braiden and Emma to the Build A Bear Workshop at Ridgedale. It was fun to watch them choose, stuff and dress their new friends. Braiden choose a dog and named him Harley. Emma choose a bear and named her Pinky. It's so fun to see the wonder of it all through their eyes.

Here are the events of our trip to Build a Bear on Monday March 5, 2007....

Excitement as Braiden and Emma find out they get to choose & make their own new friend.

Braiden watches after his new puppy was just freshly stuffed and then gets stitched up.

Emma is busy giving her new bear a 'bath' to get any extra fuzz off the fur after stuffing it.

Braiden is creating his a birth certificate for his new puppy friend named 'Harley'.

Emma looks like she's really having fun as she dresses Pinky in her ballerina outfit.

Here are Emma and Braiden as they leave Make a Bear with their new friends in hand.
