I have enough of the damn things for every IU6 attendee to have 3 s'mores . Thanks for the freezing suggestion Chelone- but I bet they're like Twinkies with triple election cycle shelf life. lol. I can't imagine what the neighbors may have thoughtif they peeked over the fence as I was setting up these shots. I guess it's always nice to have at least one slightly dotty person in the neighborhood. No sunscreen Cynthia, but made them stay in the shade-wouldn't want them to melt you know !

Maybe there is something here you can use! http://directory.google.com/Top/Kids_and_Teens/People_and_Society/Holidays_and_Celebrations/Easter/Fun_and_Games/?tc=1 Here is a link that might be useful: Easter Fun

Marlene the large bunnies on the buffet are a couple I picked up while out ys. I didn't have many before coming to Holidays. Now I don't pass them up! Karen, I knew you had something to do with Jas signing my book, "The Energizer Bunny". His book sits in our LR and I tell all what an amazing, inspiring guy he is! Love the part he wrote "Never Give UP" too. There is times that I to think I should open a store instead of donating so much.haha However, I would share with anyone who wants to come visit! Creek, decorating the outside was pretty easy. Alot of the eggs have wires so all I did was hang them up! So quick compared to tying the string ones. I'm thinkingif I go shopping after Easter, I will pick up more for next year. I know I have more out in the shed tho.LOL I will always Treasure my book "Burning Shield" signed by Jas. Nana, not a clue how many Bunnies I have! Looking forward to seeing your new one that hopped in this year! Always wonderful to know the decor brightens someones day. Did you see this Jelly Bean tree someone decorated? I Love It! So simple and just darling I think. Thanks so much ladies for all the Sweet comments. I've been so busy, I forgot I posted these and didn't respond. Good thing Nana was gone playing with Felicity and brought them back up. Now I'm behind but will catch up! Punk

Here is something I saved from last year. Maybe it will help. Ideas for Easter: From the Easter bunny:  sidewalk chalk  bubbles  crayons/coloring book  sand toys  small pot with a baggie of soil and some marigold seeds  small sized book  balloons-blow up and fill the floor  new swimsuits and swim shoes  swim float for the baby, water wings, anything in that theme  snorkle and goggles for the older child  Sunscreen - colored kinda that fades so you cover every part  kites  headbands, barretts  small beach chair  NEW toothbrush and a new thing of toothpaste  character pillowcases  small flashlight  chapstick  a new kite  fishing stuff  t-shirt, socks  waterpaints and paper to paint on  kid-sized gardening tools and a watering can  sunglasses  travel game (i.e., with magnets)  personalized pencils or pens  movie theater or blockbuster gift certificate  bottle of fancy lotion  new spiffy shoelaces  harmonica for toddlers and preschoolers  garden seeds  sunblock lip balm  stickers, stamps, stuffed animals, etc.  glycerine soap with toys inside  animal crackers  plastic tub toys  bibs To Do:  Put change - nickels, dimes, quarters - in plastic eggs. Hide the eggs before they come to the house in the afternoon - each child is allowed a predetermined amount of eggs - so it is equal.  Make rice krispies treats and instead of spreading them out in a pan form little nests out of them on wax paper on a cookie sheet. Put a few jelly beans in the middle, and a marshmallow peep on top of the beans.  Make a stencil of bunny feet. Use a paper plate as a cut out. Then using some baby powder or carpet fresh create a bunny trail through the house to their baskets...little kids love that.  But to make Easter FUN...Get the tiny fillable eggs and place notes in them sending them on a wild goose chase(if you plan it right-it could take up a lot of time so you can sit and enjoy your coffee) At the end of the chase buy a six pack of soda, sugary cereal, or just anything that they normally would never have. And thatÂs their treat. Planning the wild goose chase is easier if you start from the end, then backtrack. Write the clues in poem form if you can. Roses are red. Violets are blue. Open your closet. And look in a shoe. Place a few tiny treats along the way...maybe a keychain or crazy bone (remember those?) Also do this at Valentines day. It takes about 30-50 eggs to make a good chase so start planning places to hide them. Use every room in the house. Hide some in the washer and dryer, in the pantry, in coat pockets and under pillows. Even plan one for the kids to call grandmom for the next clue. Send them to the neighbors yards or houses (get permission first)
