Easter 2011: Eggies, Chicks, & My Peeps

A timeless tradition...

Soon thereafter,

the kiddies went to bed

and the bunny came out of hiding!

This year

the bunny was 6'2"

with beautiful hazel eyes.

The 4'11" bunny was passed out on the couch

from cooking all night long!

 He came through though,

with my favorite Easter tradition of all,

"The Mommy & Daddy Basket",

or should I say colander?

Note the contents:

Yellow Peeps (only the yellow ones!)

&

Chocolate-covered Marshmallow Eggs

What more do you need?

And after a great Sunday at church,

the same could be said about being surrounded with family:

What more do you need?

After the disastrous egg hunt the day before,

my wickedness came to the forefront again.

When it was time to hide our Golden Egg,

I insisted on putting only two pennies in it!

{ he-he }

Here we go...

Who will find the Golden Egg?







Bella!

{ Like mother like daughter! }

The second she saw the pennies she knew it was me!

{ On a pitiful note }

Even though I knew what the prize was,

I had no idea where the egg was hidden.

As usual,

the kids took forever and I started to get antsy,

and yes,

even though Samuel tried to stop me,

I started looking too!

I found it!

And Samuel made me walk away.

Hmphh!

The spoils!

I couldn't resist including this second shot.

It's a terrible one,

with nearly all the kids squinting into the sun!

That's why I love it!

 Now this is a great shot!

I LOVE when we get together!

But the fun isn't over yet...
