Local Celebrity
If you go back a couple of posts you will read all about Emma's questions about the Easter bunny.
Emma was on the local news last night for about 2 seconds!
AND, if you look closely at this picture you will see that Emma is looking RIGHT INTO THE MOUTH OF THE BUNNY!
LOL!!!!

First Easter Egg Hunt
Today we took Emma and Sophie to their very first Easter Egg Hunt. Honestly they were not really ready to attend one until this year so I'm glad that we waited. The Easter Bunny was even there! Emma has always loved him...Sophie not so much. When she met him at Walmart 2 years ago she screamed her head off as soon as we got near him...LOL! :) However, she did GREAT this time.
Emma has always been very observant. I mean VERY!! As she hugged the Easter Bunny today she kept looking in his mouth...even trying to gently pry it open at one point. We realized WHY after the egg hunt had ended. Emma said "MOMMY? WHY IS THERE A LADY IN THAT COSTUME"?! : P
.
Greg & I almost burst out laughing. We explained to the girls that the Easter Bunny is VERY busy, especially on the night before Easter. So, people dress up in costumes for fun and to make kids happy. I asked the girls "Does that make sense"? Emma said "NO". :)
!!!
The egg hunt was at the zoo so we hung around for a little while afterwards. We bumped into our pals, The Ewings and we even got to see a sheep shaved. (Really)!
Sophie was exhausted and went to sleep IMMEDIATELY tonight. She actually asked us to stop talking so that she could go to sleep!
Emma...well, she is still up. She is insistant on meeting the real Easter Bunny, giving him a hug and telling him thank you for her basket. LOL.
I did not get really good pictures today. But, here they are for your viewing enjoyment:

Our Most Recent Book Order
I try to limit how many times we order books from school. We get order forms sent home ALL OF THE TIME. Emma and Sophie LOVE books-which is awesome! But, we have SO MANY. And, we end up donating a ton every year or two. But, when I saw *these* books on Emma's order form I could not pass it up:
Coloring Easter Eggs
My two dearest peeps and I colored Easter eggs today.
I boiled the eggs, set up the table, & mixed the dye tabs.
Emma and Sophie did the rest ALL by themselves (almost)!
They did a VERY good job. :)
