BUILD A BEAR



We had a free night however, 2 of my children already had other plans. We were all going to go to the dollar movie and see Rattouille? or whatever that rat movie is. I really wanted to see it. I heard great things about it. My children have seen it. But, Dash went to our neighbors party. They were going to throw a halloween party but because of the rain, they had the party inside. All, I have to say is better them than I. LOL, anyway the girls and I decided that we would have a Girls night out and chat and have a special night. We usually go out for dinner at Olive Garden, Red Lobster or one of their restraunt picks, however tonight we had a late start and went straight for the activity. Last time we went for our hair and nails and today we headed for the mall! But of course, Sweetheart wanted to go to Build a bear. I thought we were through with that stage but we went. It was fun. We have been going to build a bear for years and our home is cluttered with countless stuff animals. Sweetheart, chooses hers and goes through the process of stuffing it and Beauty says she wants one too. WHAT?? I was like don't you want to go shopping or have the money. No, I want one too, she replies. Are you serious? I ask. Yes. She and I and shopping don't blend too well. WE have completely different tastes and it takes a long time to find things we both can live with. So, shopping is not as fun with us. But, still I would have taken the cash. I think we were all in the moment though and it was our night together so why not get a bear? Of course, with a bear comes outfitts and shoes and well, we aren't walking out of there for less than $100.
It was our night. When the girls go shopping we always go to auntie annies for a pretzel and then we get a smoothie and well, I had to stop by the cookie store. We didnt feel like Godiva chocolate this time and Starbucks was downstairs we would have gotten our french vanilla hotchocolate for makela and I and pumpkin spice for kai. Our drinks in the summertime from Starbucks is strawberry frappucino! yum yum!!
