Build-A-Bear Birthday

On Saturday we took Kimball and Tanner to Build A Bear and Applebee's for their birthdays. Tanner's birthday is in a few weeks so we combined their celebration. Kimball has been telling me all year that this is what he wanted to do for his birthday. Jake was asking him are you sure this is what you want? He thought he might want to go on a "man's hike" or campout. No, he wanted Build A Bear and dinner! They had such a fun time. Kimball chose a dog and Tanner an elephant. They went through the whole process of making it and Tanner's favorite part was blow drying it and brushing its fur. Kimball was all about picking out an outfit and shoes and a hat. Tanner wanted nothing to do with it. He could not be talked into any outfit or accessorie. He wanted it "just regular"! Kimball named his Coco {we had a dog named Coco} and Tanner named his Matt {his favorite show is Cyber Chase}. After we went to Applebee's for dinner and Tanner got the Macaroni and Cheese and Kimball got Chicken Strips. It was a fun birthday for them and that is all that matters!

Too cute. Build a bear was a fun experience, but one I probably wouldn't repeat. That's funny that he didn't want any clothes for it.

My nephews are funny kids. That's nice of you to give them their own special night.
