Peter Cottontail (from afar)

Katy loves to color with markers!

This is as close to "sitting with the Easter Bunny" as we got.

Daddy rocking the Easter Bunny ears. ;-P

Today, we went to Bass Pro Shop in order to take part of their Easter festivities. We were supposed to go to the Harrisburg Egg Hunt but we got rained out (muddy fields and screaming children just didn't seem like fun to me).

Anywho, the Bass Pro Shop had a set-up with the Easter Bunny and they were doing free pictures. While I didn't fully expect Katy to actually like sitting with the rabbit, I did think that she'd be okay if I sat with her and the rabbit. Nope- no dice. Katy did not like the Easter Bunny.

NOT. AT. ALL!! (and that's an understatement!)

There was wailing. There was crying. There was a distraught little girl throwing herself on the floor away from the Easter Bunny. Suffice it to say that we didn't get a picture with Peter Cottontail.

Switching gears, we were able to get Katy to participate in the other Easter-y activities. We colored an Easter Egg scene with markers and we made an Easter picture frame. Katy liked watching the other kids sit with the rabbit but every time we asked her if SHE wanted to take a turn she would respond with a resounding, "NO!"

Oh well, better luck next year!
