The Easter Bunny Came to Town

To conserve % (not sure what that means in blogspot world) and to try to speed up the upload (not successful) I am posting these pics small. Click to enlarge.

Saturday Nick, Jack, and I dyed eggs after his nap since the weather was expected to be poor on Easter Sunday. Don't mind my apron....Jack wouldn't wear his smock apron, wore his kitchen, made Nick wear the kitchen apron, and demanded I wear his smock apron...which obviously wasn't my size.

Once getting over the fact that the eye dye I bought at Garden Hell, I mean Ridge, only came with 3 colors...guess that is what I get for only spending 99 cents on it.
Drop in lightly...not something a 2 year old understands as we found out with the first egg drop.
To pass the time while the eggs soaked Jack put stickers on some of the others.

Beautiful egg...let's see blue, pink, or yellow (unless we follow the color chart in lightest color to darkest to create other colors-what a PAIN!)

Another strike against the cheap people's egg dye! Our hands were colored for 2 days!

I love my little bunny (and don't click to count the grays...I know they are there!)

Since we were spending Easter Sunday afternoon with the McWilliam's we made sure that Jack had some more hunt practice with his hunt basket (his other is strictly indoor for the Easter Bunny).

Found one!

Speeds up the hunt!

While Jack was asleep the Easter Bunny, Easter Parents, Easter Grandparents, and Easter Great-Grandparents came to visit Jack.

He loved all his loot!

The weather was indeed yucky and plans changed...we headed to the McWilliam's for breakfast after checking out what our baskets were filled with. While the parents cooked the kids colored with Olivia's Do A Dots from her Easter Basket.

The plan was to use the cool new pancake molds from Olivia's birthday to make banana-pecan pancakes. Here are the 2nd set of pancakes that Aaron made. Can't you see the lion and elephant resemblance?

Jack and Olivia headed to her kitchen because they figured we would need a backup breakfast.

Then Karen took over to give the pancakes a shot but honestly they didn't look much better...

but sure tasted GREAT. The breakfast was wonderful!

Afterwards the kids played, we settled up bills, and then headed home still full from breakfast for our nap.

Dinner was honey ham, hash brown potatoes, steamed veggies (with cheese), and deviled eggs (which only I eat and boy do I have a lot to eat since I boiled all dozen of them). The weather cleared up so we took an after Easter dinner wagon ride (you know in Jack's skull and crossbones shirt).

What a EGGcellent Easter!
