The basket hunt has always been big at our house. And also one of my fave ‘compilation gift projects’ of the year. Thanks to the good people of Hallmark, me and my girls enjoyed a sweet Easter Sunday. We had a long, quiet day of reflecting on our family blessings with early Mass, Panera, *loads* of spring cleaning and a floppy frisbee throwdown in the park. It was 70 degrees and just the sort of down time we needed together.
I had to make up for poor Snowball who was on the injured list big time and couldn’t deliver treats. I was out of state all day Friday and Kevin McCallister and her little sister decided to let the four-legged Problem Child near the bunny. Snowball tore her toenail out in the lengthy high speed chase around the playroom and spent the rest of the day getting TLC on the couch with a rabbit speed anxiety attack from seeing her life flash before her little red eyes. Way to get out of your one day of work a year, Bunbun!
Happy, Blessed Easter, Friends!
Sam
A+ on those baskets!!!!!

‘Kevin McAllister’ππππ ‘Problem Child’. Lolol I like how you referenced some of the top late 80s early 90s movies. But poor Snowball. I’m relieved it was her nail. Her and Gabe set this one up:
“Okay, Gabe. Dad’s gone… it’s just the girls. Here’s what we’re gonna do. You start acting antsy and act like you’re hungry…. that’s when the chase is onπΆ. One of us is gonna have to take an L π°…..but I’m pretty sure this plan will get me out of work!” #teamwork ππ

Those baskets are really nice!

And I almost ended it with Snowball “getting fired on her day off” but I thought three references was overdoing it lmao πππ
I would believe that but her and Gabey have never really spoken, lol! They live in a world divided, yet so close! Occasionally when the kids put her veggies near the stairs he spies her eating and loses his shit until we distract him. They have touched noses through the gate cause she ain’t afraid’a nothin. The kids berated him the rest of the weekend for his poor behavior and I’m like this was your guys fault!! Now whenever she senses his glares from the stairway she thumps really hard and hides in the Barbie garage. πππ

Okay, I believe she’s a princess for gravitating to and hiding in, Barbie real estate. I need to YouTube that thumping sound!
I was all in for the references. I was just waiting for moreπ. That last one, “Getting fired on her day off”, would have topped it. Lolololol. I’m cracking up at them touching noses, from each side of their worlds. Like, that’s their peace treaty…..until it’s notπ²

When he goes near the stairs now he shames himself π I don’t have to say a word! The thumping is crazy because on the padded carpet it feels like a heartbeat. The first few times I was like what the heck is that?? And they told me she was thumping π²π²π²

Thank you so much! The Uni is one of those lavender ‘microwave’ pets π She heated it up last night and the short haired dog glued himself to the damn unicorn sucking it’s heat. I’m always surprised at your hippo treasures cause I swear I never see anything hippo!

Ooo a microwave pet? I have never heard of such things!
And omg I know! I hardly ever see hippo things but when I do itβs so hard not to buy them! My aunt even painted me a hippo picture for my birthday lol but I guess once people know you love a certain thing, they search it out for you.

I think she must but I don’t know how! I have asked so many rabbit people about it and they all say rabbits have their own ideas about stuff and don’t really know! She can find and devour even a lego wheel anywhere in that room in no time even if it’s hidden. It’s pretty amazing actually…but costly!
