Kaitlyn had a teddy bear birthday party today. A few weeks ago Kaitlyn said she wanted her own stuffed animal. I told her that she had plenty, but then I realized that all the stuffed animals in our house originally belonged to Alan or Sarah. She didn't have one of her own. So, we decided to have a "make your own teddy bear" party. I found this place online that makes teddy bears that you stuff yourself (waaaaay cheaper than "build-a-bear"). The bears are 14" long and all come with their own adoption certificate, heart to place in side, and stuffing. It was at http://www.buildables.biz/ if anyone is interested. ..... Anyway, we had a ton of fun at our teddy bear party!!
Here's Kaitlyn coloring on her bear's shirt, with friends stuffing their bears in the background:
Here you can see one of the bears after it was stuffed, along with the kids coloring their bear shirts.

Enjoyting cake, ice cream, and pink lemonade:
Here's the Birthday Cake!! The "fondant" is not really fondant, it's just marshmallow cream and powdered sugar mixed together until it became a dough. Not the greatest to work with for covering a cake, but nice for making little teddy bears!! The teddy bears had some powdered unsweetened cocoa in them to make them brown,.. the chocolate made them taste awesome.
Happy 6th Birthday Kaitlyn!!
