Build-A-Bear, Bee Movie, and Beautiful Eden

January 4th--Davis got to go to Build-A-Bear Workshop from a Christmas gift certificate. He had such a great time picking out his animal, stuffing it, giving it a sound (Take Me Out to the Ballgame,) and then giving it a special heart before they sewed him up. His penguin's name is Cody Maverick from the movie "Surf's Up" (a good movie, if you have never seen it.) He had a wonderful time--I highly think every child should experience it.
January 5th--We took the kids to the Bee Movie Saturday afternoon. It was surprisingly pretty good. At least worth a couple of dollars. We have a really neat cheap movie theater here where you can buy a movie/treat package for $3.50. For $3.50 you get to see your movie, plus you get to pick out 2 treats--popcorn, drink, nachos, candy, cookies. When you compare it to the grocery store, the prices are actually realistic--as opposed to paying $6.00 for a large popcorn like you do at the real theaters these days. Anyway, we had a good time.
January 6th--I love striped tights! I love little girls in striped tights! They are adorable! I would probably wear them myself, if I didn't end up looking trendy, juvenile, or just plain weird. By the way, we woke up today to loads of snow. The most Boise has seen in years, I think. I am loving it!!
January 7th--I couldn't take it any longer. She woke up this morning with the ends of her bangs plastered to her boogers. I combed it out the best I could and snipped it off. (Don't worry. Despite the fact that she is holding the scissors, I didn't let her cut it!) Hopefully I don't regret it in the end, but as for today? I didn't have to disentagle any snot-covered locks. Oh, and more snow today...

Eden looks darling with her little bangs! Boogers in the hair isn't quie as cute. I love striped tights too. Madeleine wants to wear "a skirt and a shirt" everyday, not pants. Never pants. But it has gotten cold enough that if she is going to be in a skirt, she needs tights, so she got some really cute pairs for Christmas.

Claire is always trying to get us to take her into the build a bear store, but so far we have managed to steer clear, though maybe she is getting old enough to truly enjoy it.

Eden's bangs are so cute! She looks so happy to have all the boogs out of them!

Davis looks so happy with his new friend. We have done the build a bear a couple of times and love it. And there is nothing you could do to Eden to make her look any less adorable. Shave her head... I'd still steal her from ya if you weren't looking. We miss you guys. Hope you can come visit again soon!!! BIG hugs!
