Well, we started getting ready for the Easter Bunny's visit last weekend with the coloring of the eggs. Check out the look on Bryn's face as her blue/green? egg emerges from the dye.
Despite the snow storm and true to Wisconsinite form, the annual Egg Hunt on the Capital lawn went on as usual. The foot of snow made the eggs kinda hard to find in some cases. Consequently, the kiddos ended up with a pretty light haul. Luckily they were able to trade in their eggs for a goodie bag full of fun stuff.
Then all of a sudden they got super klingy. We were touched that in the midst of all the chaos they wanted to give us hugs, but we realized their burst of affection was actually complete and total fear of...the Easter Bunny. They still have not found a way to be ok with people in costumes, including Bucky, Bruce the Spartan, or in this case Peter Cottontail. They did, however, make it clear to us that it was still cool for him to come to our house while they were sleeping, as long as it was a "little Easter bunny".
And the celebration culminated with a good old-fashioned egg hunt Easter morning. It was so much fun we might do it every weekend!
