It's Giveaway Time! (Finally!)

Okay, so I am not super-blogger by any means but I was set to get this going on Tuesday! If there is one thing I miss about Mesa it was that my Internet was all set up and ready to go EVERY time I sat down at the computer. Here in Glendale...not so much! (Ok,Ok...there are plenty more things I miss in Mesa including my mom, Paul's family and of course Matta's!) My Internet has been in, out, and selectively working on certain computers but I am finally ready for my big first Giveaway! I feel like it's something anyone could use so that's why I am so excited about it! So after taking a computer to school, downloading the pictures there and now back at home. I am ready to post! (Yay!)
I am SUPER excited about this giveaway! Not only is it my first giveaway, EVER....it is a super cute one in fact! I was asked by Build-A-Bear to do a review on their new graduation bear! I chose to have a bear monogrammed for my good friend, Mel's daughter, Megan! She is graduating 8th grade in May from Ss. Simon and Jude (which just happens to be an Alma Mater of mine too!) If you know someone graduating soon, you just have to get a bear for this person! Jayme over at Build-A-Bear was "PAWESOME" to work with! (Customer Service at it's finest!) I just gave him all the information regarding what the school colors were, her name, school name and where to send the bear to and 1 week later...this cute thang should up at my door step! How cute is that?


And what I loved the most....it came with a bag of different color tassels that are interchangeable. I chose green since SSJ's colors are green and yellow and the monogramming was in yellow so I thought green would compliment it well! I am hoping Megan just loves this bear as much as I did and it will be something she can treasure forever with memories of her school! Build-A-Bear did SUCH a great job meeting the needs of all graduates with all their color options and easy ordering! Miss Rylee Rose will surely be getting one of these for her graduation down the road (In 12 years! ha!)

And of course this little munchkin couldn't take her little "paws" off the dang thing until I agreed to take a picture of her with it! (Mel and Megan, I promise her "paws" were clean and it's been safe in the box ever since!)
