Easter in Illinois

Easter weekend we spent relaxing. Easter Saturday was breakfast at Jim Gould's complete with the Easter Bunny. Alex is still enthralled by her visit to the fire house so brought her Firefighter hat with her. It's hard to fool a three-year old: when the Easter Bunny came over to let Alex choose an egg from the basket, she pointed straight at his head and said "there's a man in there" - sure enough you could glimpse him through the netting of the eyeholes. What to say, what to say...I simply laughed and agreed with her.

While we dined from the breakfast buffet, Sebastien was happy to just munch on a plate - no, no sign of any teeth yet.







Finally we got a photo of both kids with the Easter Bunny - but two kids just means that it takes more than two photos to get them both looking at the camera!








Then we headed off for an egg hunt! It was bitterly cold and SNOWING! We patiently waited in the 3 year old section (Sebastien kindly gave up his opportunity to hunt in the 0-2 section) for the countdown.








The hunt was on and it was hilarious to watch Alex run over ten eggs to get to the one she had her eye on. But she did ok anyway.
