This and That

Here are two new additions to the Build-a-Bear line of stuffed animals. These are limited edition and limited time special. We have lifelike Dianna and Jarod Build-a-Bears. Take home your very own Jarod or Dianna - or both. So we journeyed out to the nearest Build-a-Bear Workshop to get a stuffed animal for the new Deaver Baby (hereafter refered to as Khalani). On a previous trip, we had already picked out a panda bear that we liked for Khalani, and after running it by Iva and Darby, we made plans to get him. We named the panda "Kinsie" after his new hometown. So in the next pictures, Jarod and Dianna are giving Kinsie an air bath and brushing him to fluff up his fur.
Notice the attention to detail as they "wash" little Kinsie.Here is Kinsie with the children after the bath. They are waiting for Kinsie's new pajamas.May I present to you all, Kinsie Deaver in his new jammies. P.S. Aren't the children adorable? I just love them!Jarod is just relaxing in the car on the way to the Build-a-Bear Workshop. Cute!!!Upon arrival at our destination, Jarod and Dianna wasted little time finding somewhere to pose for a quick cute photo op.
I am going to switch gears a little here and go with a school picture or two. Below is a picture from Dianna's Open House where she was able to meet her K5 teacher, Miss Daugherty (pronounced "Darty"). Jarod just had to get in the picture too.Here is a picture of my little Princess after her first day of school. What a big girl.
Lastly, here are some other pictures of Barbie's bulletin boards. The first is the completed Bible board with the references, and the second is the diagramming board that I was trying to describe in the last post.
We will talk to you all later. Thanks for stopping by. Alofa tele ia te outou uma.

Woohoo! great photos! Love all the new pictures of the kids and the cool bulletin boards. Wow, I still can't diagram. Add adverbs and my brain gets fuzzy :)

The kids getting Kinsie (CUTE name!) all ready are so adorable! That's such a cool tradition, too :) Toa still loves his Koabear from you guys. Love you all, hope you're having a great week. We're so ready for fall here!

So cute....my favorites are the Jarod-bear and Dianna-bear...may I have them both to take home?

Kinsie is so huggable...good job on the washing and prepping and getting the jammies on him!

Love the bulletin boards too, Barbie. Thanks for the great posting of updated pictures and news of the Florida Tupuas.

Always a joy to talk with you folks and see you on Skype. Love you! xoxoxo mom & dad
