We had a great one. Both boys were thrilled with their Easter baskets this morning.
J quickly got to work building a small Lego fire helicopter from his basket.
N was excited about the cat grooming toy he got.
But he was even more excited about the CHOCOLATE! He jumped into eating his candy right away.
He has been anxiously awaiting the arrival of his chocolate. On Thursday when I went to preschool for the boys' Easter parties, N came running up to me and told me, "The rabbit is coming and we get CHOCOLATE!" It was pretty adorable.We did not travel to see family, but got together with our good neighborhood friends instead. We like to think of them as our adopted family. We also invited our new next door neighbors who just moved here from Seattle. We had a wonderful meal and then a really fun Easter egg hunt. All seven children seemed to really enjoy themselves.

Opening eggs!
And inside some of those eggs were these little cuties.A free pattern from Anna Hrachovec of Mochimochiland.
I used DK, Sport and Worsted weight yarn and size 2 doublepoints. I made ten between Friday night and Saturday night. I did a few extra rows of i-cord on the ears to make them a bit longer.
On Ravelry, here.
Hope you all had a lovely Easter day!

How wonderful that you have so many children in your neighborhood who are so close in age. And those bunnies are adorable. Way better than the usual junk from Oriental Trading Company that most people put in their eggs.
