Easter 2012

We hunted some eggs

Posed for the camera

Got an awesome new tutu from Aunt Lisa

Collected some farm fresh eggs

Dyed some eggs (one even came out black!)

Enjoyed the cake batter just a little bit too much!

And decorated our traditional bunny cake - mmmmm....it was delicious!
We had a really nice Easter!

And Annabelle is STILL sleeping in the shark tent. Tomorrow the tent moves to her bedroom like it or not :)

Annabelle has been sleeping in a shark-shaped tent in our living room for the past couple nights. She loves getting into it at bed time and playing her leappad and turning on her flashlight, she sleeps in that darn thing the ENTIRE night without getting up once & trying to get in our bed. I think the shark tent is a brilliant idea! Maybe we can just get rid of her bunk beds to make room for a separate home office for Justin? BRILLIANT!!

Preschool graduation is just around the corner. I had no idea there would be an entire ceremony complete with cap, gowns & tassel, guest speaker, dancing & singing, invitations. That one took me by surprise. So, I ordered a cap and tassel for Annabelle (we decided to forgo the gown since the preschool offered to let everyone borrow one and I could just imagine another graduation gown hanging in my closet collecting dust). Graduation photos are this week & I have been diligently working on Annabelle's "dance costume" for graduation which, for some odd reason, is a 50's poodle skirt? Not sure why the graduation dance involves the 50's since these preschoolers have no idea what the heck a poodle skirt is, I guess I need to rent the movie "Grease" and let her watch it?

The Easter egg hunts are getting ready to begin. There will be one at the library tomorrow, at Annabelle's preschool the next day and I'm sure there will be lots this weekend - just not sure if we will participate in any of the local public hunts since I know they will be a mess. Annabelle has still been practicing hunting eggs in our backyard, she's going to run circles around the other egg hunters!
