The Easter Bunny & Co. came hopping along the bunny trail this past Easter weekend with lots of energy. On a weekend known for painting eggs pastel colors, eating too many chocolate bunny ears, and keeping pets away from that dangerous green Easter basket grass, we, in contrary fashion, decided against all those traditions. Instead we visited multiple fabric stores looking at colors (Dad, you were a trooper) and working outside among nature's beautiful colors of spring. Mom zipped along at the hare speed of her sewing machine (she would go faster if the sewing machine had a faster speed) making covers for our kitchen table and benches and curtains for the front room. I, on the other hand, used the turtle setting on the sewing machine. She also mastered Kade's power staple gun-which came in quite handy for upholstery work. Kade hopped inside and outside making cuts and mixing mortar for the master bathroom tile. Dad made sure no branch escaped the chipper's teeth as Kade continued to cut our amazon forest. Mom (still in hare mode) and I cleaned up some flower beds and brush at the front of the house, trying to spruce it up a little. Harley and I managed to move quickly amongst these Energizer bunnies answering questions, bringing drinks, tools, glasses, and towels without getting run over on the bunny trail.
Our unique Easter weekend included dinners together, laughing a lot, telling crazy stories, visiting friends, and enjoying each other's company. As far Harley, well, she was included too. She got an Easter outfit that Kade managed to tie around her neck for about 3 minutes. Her Easter outfit was a sweet little white bow. And she got toys with rattles-her Easter basket. So somewhere along the way, in the land of the Energizer bunnies, we paused long enough to celebrate the true meaning of Easter after all. Love.
