After a very busy & very late night, I wondered what time the little folks would be surfacing to hunt down Easter treasure! They were all awake til after 10pm after a full day of running around & so much excitement outdoors. No sleep in to be had though, everyone was ready to roll at 6:50! They headed straight to the kitchen to check for any gifts and were quite pleased to find their buckets with goodies inside! Then they took those to the living room to hunt down all the chocolate. The Easter Bunny left a pretty good haul but they weren't long finding it all.
It's so much fun to watch them racing around and oohing and ahhing over their discoveries! We really enjoyed having Mr. Bojangles all weekend and getting to see him work with the girls to uncover the loot. They doted on him all weekend and made sure he had his coat on when they went out, took him anywhere he wanted to go, played whatever he wanted to play. A couple of times at night he needed us (he missed his mom once & fell out of bed once) so Sweetie came to get us and let us know he needed help. Then she cuddled him and helped him settle back down to sleep so I'm not sure we were really needed at all actually!
I think Acorn's mom said it best when I was telling her about all the fun here,
"Sounds like a perfect birthday celebration. Nothing beats spending quality time with family building memories that will last a lifetime."
