The Easter Bunny Never Disappoints

Once again, the Easter Bunny came to our house and he never disappoints Sam with her basket. As always, that sneaky little rabbit hid Sam’s basket. Sam searched high and low first in our bedroom closet then in her room.
She checked every room upstairs, even the bathroom, since the bunny did leave her basket in the tub once! Eventually, she made it downstairs and looked in some typical places before reaching the kitchen. We could not believe the MESS that bunny made when he came into our house! Grass and leaves everywhere, and he even dropped his carrot!
Sam did find her basket on her booster seat (which Mark took out of his car while he was hauling some dirt and other gardening stuff) tucked behind her coat. She quickly threw her coat on the floor for better basket access!
On to the opening! Sam got so much great candy. Candy buttons, Hershey Kisses, her favorite Jelly Belly peach jelly beans, and of course, lots of chocolate bunnies.
The Easter Bunny always leaves lots of good toys too. He somehow found the Shopkins that Sam and I could not, a cute Hello Kitty cheerleader she had her eye on, a tiny stuffed bunny, a bunny puppet, some pencils with bunny pencil toppers, and the coolest butterflies — that actually fly! — when you wind them up.
There were other assorted goodies as well. As I said, the Easter Bunny never disappoints!
One of the coolest toys Sam got was a Catwoman figurine! How the Easter Bunny knows Sam likes Batman, and Catwoman in particular, we have no idea.
One of the sweetest parts of the day was when Sam remembered something I casually said the night before. Sam wondered what would be in my Easter basket. I told her that I don’t get a basket, that I hadn’t gotten one since I was a kid. She was so aghast! She couldn’t believe I got no basket. So, she made one for me herself. 🙂 My thoughtful girl. She is always worried about everyone else. Later, when she and Mark took a walk, they stopped in CVS and picked out a lot of good snacks I like and Sam filled her basket with things for me. This is the original basket she made, complete with homemade “eggs”.
It was a quiet Easter, but a nice one, spent hanging out at home with our girl, eating candy, watching Hop. What could be better than that?

Sam is so sweet to make you an Easter bunny. I am a big fan of jelly beans but I never had peach jelly bellies. I’ll have to try them.
