The HUNT!!

Here we are hunting, a hunting, a hunting! Here we are a hunting, a hunting for our Easter Eggs! Virginia started her hunt with throwing her basket and screaming that everyone was taking all of her eggs! DRAMA! Then she discovered that no one was down the long hallway. What did she find? A solid chocolate bunny, 14 eggs, and two toys. Easter was not so bad after that. Too Funny.

Garrett was bumbed out that the Bunny hadn't brought "Santa toys". Scott reminded him to call 1800dumbbunny. Garrett did not appreciate the sarcasm. Soon after the hunt, the trading, the bargaining, and the eating commenced. FUN!

About 1 hour after opening up all the things out the door they flew! Garrett, Isaac, Margaret Susanna, and Virginia took the bubbles, the chalk, and the balls outside. Soon they had the neighbor kids joining in. Soon bubbles and designs were everywhere. after 3 hours, Margaret came in and wanted to know if they could have a picnic lunch. Sure...why not? I made a mean spread of PBJ, apples, chips, bananas, water, and a little cereal (for Isaac). They ate it all!

But they sweetest part of the day....Margaret Susanna announced the picnic, had all the children gather around the blanket and the food, and as two little hands reached for the food, she told them that no one could have any until she said a prayer. She said that we all needed to say thanks for the food (otherwise we could get sick and die--blink! Sigh!). She taught the two neighbor kids how to fold their arms and once she was satisfied with the "quiet" she said the sweetest prayer. Yes, I was crying in the morning sunshine on such a beautiful morning. It is nice to know that your hard work is paying off--in more ways than one. We love Easter!
