ebay is also a good place to find build a bear clothes.

I seems like ebay is always the answer

 

[kath1210]

Welcome Kath1210! It's good to have you all onboard.

Thanks, Brack. I see you are a fellow Marylander. Where is Nottingham?

 

[kath1210]

Welcome Kathy!

This is going to be one big group of green bedazzled geeks!

Thanks! Sounds great (I think? )

 

[Jhalkias]

Yes, BAB is great - they sure do lure you in with that inexpensive stuffed animal, that by the time Sophia has him dressed, I think costs as much as adopting a small child.

Hey V - did you know that they have a BAB at Jacob's field now? Right beside kid's land. You can even build a "Slider". Sophia did a bear and has her dressed up in Indian's gear - they have all kinds of baseball team stuff.

Today was an AWESOME day here - low 80's and not a cloud in the sky. I just got done walking the dog tonight for 2 miles (read - 1/2 hour exercise which I needed after that pizza). It is only about 65 outside now - just PERFECT for walking the dog!

Howdy Kathy and welcome to the group!
I have a DD 11 going on 12. We both like the Pooh Bear on your siggy. Did you know Build a Bear is getting Pooh?

Hi Patsy! My DD12's favorite character (and mine) is Pooh, with Tigger, Eeyore and the rest of the 100 Acre Wood gang coming in as close seconds!

We've not been to BABW yet, but if they have Pooh, we'll have to go!

We Love, love, love

 

[Jhalkias]

Hey, somewhere back there I finally passed 1,000 posts, and didn't even notice . . .

Lisa if you want anything from BAB we can always pick it up for you and send it to you. The mall is literally ten minutes from our house, and now has a BAB.

Boy, tonight is a slow night. Nothing good on TV either - most of what I see are repeats of the shows I like, so we are watching trading spaces - haven't watched that for awhile.

Kathy,

What kind of a dog do you have? Around Christmas, a few of us (including us) welcomed new dogs into our homes.

We now have a chocolate labradoodle, Lexi, and she keeps me on my toes all the time.

John

 

[kath1210]

Wait, Wait, WAIT! My DD is a Katie too. They will either be good friends or never speak to each other.

Yes, there certainly are a lot of Katies or Kaitlyns on this cruise! Reminds me of when I was a kid. There was a group of 6 of us that hung out, and all but one of us was named Kathy, Cathie, Cathy, Katy or some other form of the name! We called each other by our last names to keep things straight.

 

[kath1210]

You know Kathy..... County employees get free training with Fitness First memberships for $29 a month. I'm going to join there when my Bally's membership runs out....

But we could walk at lunch now that it's cooler.....

Hey Kristina - Long time no talk!

I'm up for some walking, but I am SLOW and can't go too far (arthritis in my knees). I'd hate to hold you back.

See you Monday!

LOL! I had better not tell the kids or they will be ordering us to Ohio! LOL!

That's how it was in HS for me with Lisa. There was Lisa, Leese, Lee, and LB. We were all in the advanced classes...just for more confussion!

 

[lbgraves]

OK....minor vent here....why can't the digital photo people just print a size that gets the entire picture on the paper without shrinking it down? I have decided to just go with the smaller picture 4x5.35 I think it is instead of 4x6 instead of adjusting each & every picture online. OY BOY!

Casey is a black lab/border collie mix. We are so lucky to have her! She is so good - doesn't get into anything she's not supposed to and doesn;t have accidents at all. Plus she protects us like crazy!

My brother has a chocolate lab - Max - and he's built like a tank! He's a sweetie, though.

oooh, that is my current dream dog! No dogs here despie always having them growing up - allergies! Growing up we had poodles and German shepherds. I heard labradoodles are great for allergies however our allergist says no dog is 100%. Ah well. DH never had dogs growing up so chances for getting one in here are slim to none anyway.

 

[lbgraves]

so chances for getting one in here are slim to none anyway.

Kind of like the chances for him to approve of you mingling with the cult on the ship?

 

[kath1210]

At the Big Dog store, I got DH and I matching shirts for pirate night. They are a parady of POTC. And say Big Dogs of the Carribean (has a dog biting the crossbones) and says under that DEAD DOGS WAG NO TAILS.....

i thought it was cute.... (guess you gotta own a big dog to understand)

Oh, those shirts are so cute. I took a look at them online. How much were they, if you don't mind my asking?

Would you be mad if I got some of them too?

Wow, it makes me thankful for a name like Patsy. I didn't run into another until after I graduated HS.

I got a PM from a Patsy on Disboards just the other day. She was suprised to find a name twin too.

 

[lbgraves]

Kathy....I don't think any of us have a problem with someone else in the group wearing the same shirt.

 

[MommyMinnie]

Bring BABW back into the conversation for a minute.

DD and I like to go to BABW whenever we travel and get a local T-shirt. It's about a $5 purchase and kind of fun to have BABW Vegas, Orlando, etc...

Hey he has some major mending to do after this week so one never knows!
