6 Steps to a PERFECT Friend

Aunt Emily bought the girls gift cards to Build-A-Bear Workshop for Christmas and we went to use them today. We picked the wrong day, but it was worth it. This store was made FOR Alyssa...

STEP 1: Pick the Perfect friend to make.

There are dozens to choose from, but they both picked puppies this time. Hannah got a scruffy one and Aly got a velvet one....very cute!

STEP 2: Wait in line (if there is no line, skip to STEP 3)...

We had to wait almost an hour and a half today...it wasn't too bad, except for the really annoying mom behind us talking to her friend on the cell phone about her ex-husband and his new girlfriend...seriously?!?!?

STEP 3: Stuff your pal to perfection.

STEP 4: Dress your new friend and brush their fur to make them soft and cuddly.

They each dressed their puppies like Disney Princesses. Each one matched the dress up clothes they got for Christmas. Hannah's is Tinkerbell and Aly's is Cinderella.

STEP 5: Name your new friend and make them a birth certificate.

Hannah named her puppy, Dewy. She has been watching Scooby Doo a lot...so Dewy it is. Aly simply named hers, Puppy. She refuses to give her animals names - they are simply called whatever they are. Very practical and uncomplicated.


STEP 6: Take your new friend home and love them to pieces!!

Thanks Aunt Emily...We love you!!
