So I chose good, and here we are, just a bit late. I’ll try to do better tomorrow! Today, Bella and Andy are having a rehearsal dinner for their wedding! This is mostly just a post where Bella and Andy’s friends … Continue reading Bella & Andy’s Rehearsal Dinner ~ Wedding Week

Hello friends! Today I’m going to be sharing the Caramels’ outing when they went Christmas caroling! I hope you enjoy! Bella, Andy, Mischief, and Sparkles all ventured out to do a bit of Christmas caroling! The first stop was the Stone household.

Skipping Stones Episode 9 “Graveyards and Goosebumps”

Hello friends! I really wanted to get this post up for you all. In September, I found this skeleton at Dollar Tree and I just knew it would be perfect for a sitcom like this. But then…life happened. Days passed, and all of a sudden it was October 30th and I hadn’t even started on this post. Now, these sitcoms typically take more work than can be done in a single day, but I desperately wanted to get this one up today. So it was about midnight last night, and I decided to start writing a short sitcom that maybe … Continue reading Skipping Stones Episode 9 “Graveyards and Goosebumps”

Skipping Stones Episode 8 “Girls Night and Candy’s Delight”

Hello friends! I hope you’re all having a lovely Friday. I’ve spent the majority of the day preparing this post for you all, so I hope you enjoy! I will be introducing a new bear, so keep an eye out for her! Periwinkle puts on a nice dress. She’s going out tonight, for the first time in a long time. Being a mom of seven, she doesn’t normally get very much time to herself. Tonight, however, tonight is girls’ night. Her sisters and friends are going to drop their kids off at her house. These women have been looking forward … Continue reading Skipping Stones Episode 8 “Girls Night and Candy’s Delight”

Back to School Portraits 2022

Hello friends! Can you believe the 2022 school year is already in full swing? I can’t! Anyway, the school-aged Build-A-Bears got together to take school photos. I always love doing this traditional post. I hope you like seeing these pictures! Here’s a picture of the whole group. We have quite a big group this year! Our only tenth grader in the bunch, Gisselle. The sixth grade class looks very similar to last year’s class. I think that the fifth grade is the largest. Azura is a new addition this year! Our fourth grade. Finally, our third grade class. Alright, now … Continue reading Back to School Portraits 2022

Skipping Stones Episode 7 “Badges and Brawls”

Hello friends! Can you believe Camp Happy Heart is almost over? I can’t…but I’m glad! I need a break… Anyway, I was planning to make this post a few weeks ago but I kept putting it off. This morning, I realized I can’t wait any longer! So here it is…though it is a little rushed. I hope you enjoy nonetheless. “Excuse me, Counselor Peri,” Oswald says in a small voice. “I painted this. Can I get my ‘creative’ badge now?” Counselor Peri admires the painting. “Yes, of course! This is an incredible piece of art.” Chip isn’t usually the sort … Continue reading Skipping Stones Episode 7 “Badges and Brawls”

Skipping Stones Episode 6 “Dances and Disorder”

Hello friends! It’s been a while since our last Skipping Stones episode, so I’m really excited to share the next one! This one is set at Camp and it’s pretty fun…enjoy! Campers gather around the schedule board. Sandy squeals in delight. Cloud and Mischief peek around the bears crowding the board. “What is it?” Mischief asks, not wanting to miss out on the excitement. “What’s going on?” Sandy steps away from in front of the board and points. “On Friday, there’s a camp dance! But only for the older campers. “See where it says ‘incoming middle schoolers and up’? That … Continue reading Skipping Stones Episode 6 “Dances and Disorder”

A Cozy Christmas Pajama Photoshoot

Hello friends! I’m not even going to say how many days are left until Christmas…it’s starting to stress me out… Today we have a cozy photoshoot of the Stones all dressed in their matching Christmas PJs. I think it turned out really cute, so let’s get started! First up, we have this nice group shot. Everyone looks so calm here! Then, we decided to get individual shots of all the kids. Chip went first, seeing as he’s the oldest. Sandy. Cherie. Cherry. Of course, these two had to get a photo together! Candy…is she sneaking a look at one of … Continue reading A Cozy Christmas Pajama Photoshoot

Skipping Stones Episode 5 “Christmas Chaos”

Hello friends! Can you believe we’re already at episode five of Skipping Stones? I almost didn’t make an episode two after how much work episode one was, but I’m glad I’ve continued this series. Anyway, I wanted to make a Christmas-themed sitcom. This one is a bit shorter and simpler than the other episodes seeing as I have a tight schedule this month. It doesn’t have too much of a plot, more like funny anecdotes of Christmastime at the Stone household. Anyway, without further ado, I give you…Christmas Chaos! “I’ve got so many gifts to wrap!” Mommy looks over at … Continue reading Skipping Stones Episode 5 “Christmas Chaos”
