Hoppy Easter




What a fun Easter weekend we had. Thursday morning we started off at school with an Easter party and egg hunt. Here we were hopping out the door.
Then, Saturday we went to Breakfast with the Bunny himself. HK took her sweet time warming up to this life size rabbit. She was awfully concerned when he left the room but, as you can tell with her body language, she kept to herself when he came close.

HK eating solid food before the candy came in to play.


Getting closer.....



She found a prize egg in the egg hunt but when it came time for Mr. Bunny to hand out the prizes, she braced herself for a quick get-away.



Gearing up for Church hunt (#3)....she was so funny to watch hunting. Hannah Kate likes the idea of finding eggs. But what she likes more is finding the candy inside each egg. She was in no hurry to find other eggs once she realized that candy was already in her basket.



Mrs. Bunny was passing out more candy (thanks, lady).

Hannah Kate and Mary Glenn sitting in the parade vehicles. We went out to Mimi and Papaw's neighborhood for a parade and egg hunt. Mimi always takes special care to make sure we are riding in pimped out Easter rides.

Can't you see these two in a few years....watch out Lake Lee!


Papaw and Hannah Kate after the hunt, juice, and cookies.



And then home to dye eggs! (Please note the paper towels soaking up the spilled dye!) We had to take an extra long bath to not have blue and orange hands for Easter morning! But she was fascinated by the coloring of the eggs.



And guess who stopped by Saturday night while we were getting our well deserved rest...





Lunch with Mimi and Papaw after Easter Mass.

So it was a great Easter weekend. One question came out that I wasn't sure the answer. "Where did the Easter Bunny go?" I know that Santa lives at the North Pole but wasn't quite sure where to direct this answer. So our Easter Bunny lives in the forest somewhere. On another note, Hannah Kate has been learning to hop, just like the Easter bunny. She can now get both feet off the ground for an official hop! I guess her motor development is kicking in because she's been climbing up the walls, too. On top of tables every time I turn around. ...up shelves...she can even climb her own high chair and get in it with the tray still on...not that this was something that I was wanting to see her do. She just showed me the other day. Also we have a new hiding place. Found her in the dryer as I was loading the dishwasher the other night. I'll post those pictures soon!
