Easter Bunny

Last Thursday I took the kids to see the Easter Bunny at the mall. Emma didn't have school because her teacher was out of town so I decided it was a good time to take the kids and sign them up for Kid's Club. My sister goes every Thursday and I have never gone because it is right during Emma's preschool. It was CRAZY! There were so many kids there and it was so noisy that I couldn't even here what the speakers were saying. Emma and Derrick were happy for about the first 10 minutes, dancing and singing and then they were ready to go. So we went to go see the Eater Bunny and ride the carousel (which is free from 11-1 on Thursdays for Kids Club members!). Derrick was so excited to go see the Easter bunny and show him his Thomas trains! And Emma drew the Easter Bunny a picture. I tried to tell her we could just leave it for him when he came to fill our baskets, but she insisted on giving it to him in person. So we got up there and Derrick started fussing a bit, but calmed down. Emma showed the Bunny her picture, but I told her he couldn't take it right then, so we would save it for him. I actually threw it away because it got all wrinkled and destroyed, but she hasn't brought it up and will be happy to draw him another one. Don't think I'm a mean mom for doing this. If you saw the number of papers and pictures that girl draws per day you would throw it out too! Our house gets filled with her drawings. I love them, but I don't like them scattered all over the house! Anyway, the kids had a good time at the mall and I was happy the bunny people let me take my own picture instead of paying $20 for one of theirs!

Great blog (as usual) and the kids look SO cute! :) Although I must say that Easter Bunny scares me a little! ;)

Always,

Oh yeah, Ava still has Emma's Hello Kitty picture taped on the wall next to her bed.
