Surprise Visit

We had an unexpected visit from the Easter Bunny today. Something caught Sophie’s eye this afternoon and she got this puzzled look on her face. She says “Mom, umm…there is someone outside in our yard dressed like the Easter Bunny putting eggs in our yard.” I just kinda looked at her and I said yeah ok Sophie. She does have a flare for the dramatic so I was thinking she was seeing a bunny rabbit.  She got up and she looked out the window and she said she was serious. Sarah is looking out the window by this time. I’m thinking, ok who slipped my daughter drugs. Seriously, Easter  Bunny in our yard? What in the world? I got up and joined the girls and sure enough the Easter Bunny was just finishing up and going across the road. 

The girls were so excited it’s unreal. Once they settled down a bit we got our coats on, I grabbed the camera and they went looking for eggs. Sophie requested that I not take her pic, she’s 9 now you know. But as all of you know I love to take pics so she got a few pics taken anyway. LOL…I got several good pics of Sarah and a few of Sophie.

I want to say a HUGE Thank you to my neighbors for dressing up and giving the girls such a wonderful and unexpected surprise. You really made their day and I know they will remember this for years to come.

She was so excited she was running back to show me what she had found.

She was pleasantly surprised at what was inside the egg. She told me she thought they would be empty and she got all excited when she saw the candy.
