LOLOL I have him all picked out.. .just a matter of when.. LOL... I used to collect bears a long time ago but most of them got lost in a move (grrrr....)

Of course the Teddy Bear was made from scratch and not build-a-bear; pattern, fabric, glass eyes and lots and lots of stuffing. The head is actually completely hand stiched as I think that it gives it a smoother look around the muzzle. But making the clothes really isn't my thing and I'd spotted the firefighter outfit at build a bear a few months ago. Then I asked if they had anything scrapbook related and she told me about the apron! I was lucky too that they had the boots to go with the firefighter outfit. I have this great picture of Kenda and I with boas when I came to Little Rock the first time. It's one of my fondest memories of the two of us. I'll post a picture later that I took yesterdayt of Kenda and Kendalee McBear each with a red boa. It's a terrific picture! It was great seeing Kenda when she realized that there really was a bear not just a book!

That is an AWESOME present M-C! :) It is just toooo cute!! I've seen some of your creations and they are just wonderful. This is a great gift. Love the book also!! Thanks for sharing with us.

When I was looking at things to get you last year for Christmas I saw the Scrapbooking one online at Build A Bear and thought about getting it but I ended up getting other things :)

Kendalee McBear is just too cute, especially in her firefighter outfit and red boa. It was really funny watching Kenda try to find her bear over in the corner. Well, it probably didn't help any that I was trying to confuse her. LOL *ducks and hides* The book is just priceless and gives Kendalee the extra special touch. (as if anything else could make her more special and priceless!!)

LOL I saw that face and new you had to have created him.... that takes alot of talent... I don't know if I could do that but I've seen a few hand made ones that I just wanted to revert back to childhood with and carry around forever... LOL

M-C, That is so cool about the boa. It is funny but I remember that picture from your original post and thought at the time that it was such a happy picture! The fun you all were having just came right through!
