Hoppity Easter!

We had a great Easter with the kids! The day before Easter we took the kids to go see the Easter bunny and to an Egg Hunt on base at the PX. We were the first ones in line to see the bunny and the only ones for a bit, so we took advantage of the photo op. :) Then the kids got to take their pictures with the bunny and wait for the egg hunt to start. The egg hunt was fun for them and they both got a decent amount of eggs. We also found the golden egg and the kids won a $25 gift card to the px :) So we let them go inside and pick out a Easter basket each. They were both very excited. On Saturday night we did our Easter egg coloring and the kids had a blast. They were creative and fun to watch! We put out carrots for the bunny and headed to bed.


A week before Easter Arek and I bought them there gifts. Which was a little tricky since their main gift was an actual bunny! We had to sneak him into our bathroom and hide him there for a week! We didn't want him to get lonely either so we randomly took turns hiding out in the bedroom playing with him. It was hard but definitely well worth it Easter morning! The kids had been talking about getting a bunny for a while. Easter morning was precious. The kids grabbed their baskets and were off to find eggs.. they both loved it and somehow they both ended up with 15 eggs each! Then we "heard" a sound in the guest room and went off to investigate. The best part by far were the kids faces when they opened the door BUT it wasn't for the bunny.. neither one of them seen the bunny at first it was the excitement for the baskets! Arek and I couldn't help but laugh. After a few minutes of exploring their baskets we hinted that there was something else above them. Titan finally stood up and said "whoa, what's that!" Then MaKenzie stood up in complete awhhh. It was absolutely precious! They were both so excited and couldn't believe the Easter bunny left them one of his baby bunnies. They played with Hopper on and off all day. They absolutely adore him still to this day :)







After our Easter fun at home we headed to yet another egg hunt at the church. It was a blast for the kids specially since they had a ridiculous amount of eggs on the field and not a ton of people. It was a good time! We also had an Egg hunt in the neighborhood later that day. So by the end of the day.. they had enough eggs and candy to last them until NEXT Easter!! It was a great weekend though and we enjoyed every minute of watching their excitement and fun!
