Easter

 This is such a good picture of the girls.  Except for Sasha's shoe.  It is so hard these days to get good pictures as they move so fast.  These are their Easter outfits.  Well, the first of 2.  They have another set of dresses they haven't worn yet.
 We went to the zoo for breakfast with the Easter bunny on Saturday before Easter.  No one would touch the bunny, but at least they stood by her.
 The zoo puts on a little program- you get to eat with the Easter bunny and visist him.  Then you make a craft and they have animals you can touch.
 The girls really liked the bunny.  The animals are really well behaved.  There was also a chicken that did get loose and run around the room for a few minutes.
 As you can tell, Sasha had a good time and was really excited.
 They also got to hold a baby chicken.  sasha was very gentle with it.
 I tried for another picture as we waited for the egg hunt to start, but no luck.  It is hard to be good for very long when you are 3 and 4.
 The eggs went really fast as they didn't put out a lot since it was rainy.  The zoo director came by and tossed eggs to all the little kids who got run over by the bigger ones and didn't get any eggs.
 The peacocks are always all over the zoo in the spring.  Later the babies wander around also.

 After the egg hunt, the easter bunny came out again.  Sasha posed with him and even touched him.
 Leeza decided to join her- well, she decided to go over and steal Sasha's eggs while she was looking at the camera.
 This picture is Sasha discovering that Leeza has taken most of her eggs.  The eggs were empty- you turned them in and got a prize bag later on.
 That afternoon, we went back to the zoo for the BIG egg hunt.  This time they separated the kids into under 5 and over 5.  As you can tell, there were LOTS of eggs this time.
Both girls filled their baskets ups and had a good time.  We turned the eggs in for another gift bag.
