E. B. at BPS


We took Katherine to see the Easter Bunny at Bass Pro shops... well when we took her there to see Santa you couldn't use your own camera... but with good old E.B. you could. No I didn't bring the trusty camera. IRRRR! However they didn't take a half bad picture. The image was free so who am I to complain right?
However right after Katherine had her picture taken she said mom we have a problem. I said okay what is it? She informed me that's not the real Easter Bunny. My response was how do you know? Cause mom, I saw him's flip flops under his feet. Danny tried to cover and say bunny's can were flip flops too, but Katherine looked at him with this look like uh??? how stupid do you think I am? She said no Dad.. under his feet under the costume. Okay.. at this point what's a mom to do? Of course lie for the great good! I said well Katherine let's just keep it a secret okay. She then interjected so he doesn't lose his job for next year? I said yes sweetheart so he doesn't lose his job. She then said I know mom the "real" Easter Bunny is too busy making eggs and stuff for Easter right??? You know sometimes I am so glad my daughter has an eggcellent imagination.
Anyway.. at least my daughter didn't cry and get all shy around the fake bunny. She even tolerated Danny and I going to eat next door at Danny's favorite Mexican restaurant Tiago's. They serve the only enchilada's I'll eat. Katherine got a kids meal.. chicken strips what else??? But then had an epiphany, chicken you eat comes from real chickens. Now she is not eating chicken anymore. Why??? because they are trying to hatch some chicks in their classroom at school. My little vegan. She did like the ice cream push pop that came with her meal though... so much so she fell asleep in the truck holding it upright in her hand. Nothing spilled!!! Except she did get sticky hands. Daddy was so relieved that his precious truck is still remaining is somewhat pristine condition.
Anway.. HAPPY EASTER ALL!
