We have Luke's 5 year old daughter Brooklyn once a week. Usually on Saturdays. We were lucky enough to have her Sat. Mar 22 the day before Easter. She had come the week before and we colored eggs. Even though we werent planning on eating them a week later we still hid them for her to find. While we were playing Tinkerbell Tea Party Luke got a "call" on his cell from the Easter bunny letting him know that he had come early and hid eggs and baskets just for Brooklyn (bc he knew she would be there on a saturday). I will never forget her face light up when she heard daddy say "Hello? Oh hi Easter Bunny... Whats that? You came early just for Brooks?" She was so CUTE! She immediately jumps up and yells "Lets get our baskets and find all the eggs and eat all the candy until its gone!!" So we set out for eggs and of course we let her find them all. Every time she saw one she would go Ahh! really loud and point to it as she ran for it. Every egg was such a surprise. It was way fun and could have lasted all day... After we counted she had 20 or so eggs and daddy and I had 2 each. She way beat us :) Auntie Paige was there also to join in the fun. Our baskets had plenty of treats and toys. Daddy got movies, gift cards, and Rogaine!! Brooks got a movie, My Littlest Pet Shops, a puzzle, Hello Kitty electric toothbrush, Tinkerbell lipgloss and much more. I got lots of chocolate and a CD and special underpanties from the Easter Bunny. He's soo thoughtful ;) The best part was that we all got Bunny Ears and Brooklyn got a Purple Flower Headband. So we wore them to take pictures and then Brooks asks me what the special things were that came in the pink Vic. Secret bag from the Easter bunny. First thing that came to mind....Um yeah... they are silly hats! She wants to wear them for the camera too. I couldnt resist. It was a silly Easter and much better turn out then last years attempt. Happy Easter from the Benik's!
