Episode 29 - Easter!!!!!

Of course I learned all about Jesus at Eastertime. My mom made sure I knew why we celebrated Easter. Jesus died and then was resurrected three days later. We had a family home evening about it and I learned about it at church. Still...I think the Easter Bunny was the funnest part! I just can't help myself. What 5 year old could?? It's kind of like Christmas, again! I'm pretty sure the Easter Bunny knows Santa. Could they share the same list?
I do know that my Aunt Dorothy knows the Easter Bunny because one time she said that she helped him hide eggs in her backyard. I told my mom she should tell Dorothy what I wanted in my basket and Dorothy could call the Easter Bunny. I don't think my mom did though. I really didn't get any of my requests (pom poms and a cheerleading uniform) in my basket. Oh well, it was still fun to get something!

Here is my Easter dress my mom found. Of course, Cassee got the same one. I really don't like matching Cassee all the time...well none of the time really. Mom usually makes me. I hate that, but what can I say, mom is still the boss...for now. Here's my cute funny pose!
Even though I don't really like matching her, I still do love her... most of the time!

Then we dyed eggs. I love dyeing eggs!!! I begged my mom for DAYS to do this!!! I could do it everyday if she'd let me. BUT... I really don't like eating them. I just like to dye them and then play with them. That is, until they crack and mom makes me throw them away.
My mom really likes to dye eggs too. I wish she would have boiled more eggs to do! 26 just wasn't enough. And I only got to do 6 of those!

Easter morning I had to search and search for my basket. I found everyone else's but mine! I was getting a little discouraged so mom gave me some ideas about where the Easter Bunny used to hide her basket when she was little.
I finally found my basket IN THE DRYER!
Life was good again after that!
I did get a new coloring book, some play doh, and two little pets.
And some cool markers with a rolling stamp at one end!

We all got one of these crazy masks. It was fun! I was REALLY glad I got green, cause it's my favorite color lately!

And last, but not least, here's me finding some candy filled eggs in the backyard. Some were up in the tree. Good thing I can climb trees! The fun just kept on going that day!
Thanks Easter Bunny! And of course Jesus for making Easter first!
