Meet Beariel

Today Natalie went to a birthday party at Build a Bear Workshop. It was the first time she got to make a bear. ( I don't know who was more excited, Natalie, or me!!)

It didn't take Natalie long at all to choose her bear.

Then she waited in line with all her friends to stuff the bear.

Here she is stepping on the pedal for the stuffing machine.

Now it's time to place the heart into the bear.

But first you have to make a wish and blow a kiss on the heart.


When the bear is all stitched up he needs to take a bath and get nice and fluffy.

Now the bear is ready to get dressed.

There were numerous outfits to choose from, ballerinas, cheerleaders, swim suits...but Natalie made a bee line for the mermaid costume.


Lastly, she chose a name. I thought Beariel would be cute, but she was sure Ariel was a better name.


After taking some pictures of the birthday group, we sang happy birthday and every one got to sign their name on a special autograph bear for the birthday girl.

Natalie and Sarah with their bears all boxed up ready to go.

After the party we went to the Olive Garden with Sarah and her mommy...mmmm! So tasty!
