That Silly Little Easter Bunny

Colin was so excited for Easter this year.  We explained how the Easter bunny comes to little kids houses who are really good and leaves a basket (or bucket) filled with goodies.  He also likes to take they colored eggs and hide them to help them find where he hid their basket.  To prepare for the Easter bunny's visit we made cupcakes and colored eggs.

We made cupcakes as a family.  Everyone helped.  For those who enjoyed some of these treats - no worries we caught Colin before he had a chance to lick anything!

Colin for sure thought that the Easter Bunny would wake him up in the morning.  He did something close...The Easter Bunny woke up Colin by fixing his Encore Elmo and setting it in his doorway, pushing the button and hopping away so he could deliver more Easter baskets.  Colin woke up to Elmo telling him a story about the three little pigs. 

After breakfast we headed down to spend time with Bill and Patty.  Colin got even more gifts there from the Easter Bunny; like a Donald Duck dressed like a bunny.  Colin loved him.  He would wabble around singing a song and if you grabbed his ears he would start throwing a very Donald Duck type fit.

Then we headed to Grandma Liz's house for dinner and some Easter treats.  Colin must have been such a good boy because the Easter Bunny left another basket (one for Billy too - the name the Easter Bunny remembers Will as).  Colin got a cool bubble sword, a puzzle (which he put together with Grandma), pajamas and some cool trains! 

Dinner was delicious!  I definitely ate my share.  My appetite has increased the last few weeks. 

What a wonderful Easter!
