EASTER - a day in pictures

twas the day before Easter...

...and I was procrastinating as usual. To-do list:

• boil eggs
• color eggs
• go watch movie screening at Coffee Underground
• finish crocheting "chocolate" bunny
• get dirty
• bath
• you get the idea...

Kalina received a package in the mail from my sister (her Aunt Raquel). As soon as she saw the box, she knew it was for her and she went about opening it.

A fluffy white bunny!

And other Easter goodies - the perfect thing to get us in the mood to decorate eggs!

We've been getting our eggs from a local farmer and they are natually gorgeous! He's got a lot of different breeds, so we get white, tan, brown, speckled, and even a blue/green!

I toyed with the idea of not decorating them because they looked so nice, but then I realized that would be equivalent to not carving a pumpkin for Halloween... and I couldn't let that happen!

I decided to let lil' bit color them as much or as little as she liked. Because I hadn't planned ahead, I just grabbed something easy that I already had - watercolors.

We went outside & got busy!!

She is a natural, no??!

She needed no help figuring out what to do.

But that only lasted so long. We were, after all, outside... which means that there are sticks to play with!

Meanwhile, I worked on my Bunny... the one I should have started a week ago. Yup.

Kalina loves hugging trees... She will go up to every tree in the park and give it a hug!

She makes her new bunny friend hug a tree.

(Joe says she was actually saying, "Ok, now give me all your eggs and no one gets hurt" LOL)

Airplane!

She finds out the eggs, once opened, are edible! YUMM!
