With that introduction, Anya's first Easter Sunday was fantastic! She received some chocolate kisses and lots of real kisses and even a new little pink dress from the Bonners. I was fortunate enough to get the go ahead from Anya to eat most of her chocolate treats... I asked her this way: "Anya, if you don't say anything, I will take that as permission granted to me to eat your Easter candy." She didn't say anything so I chowed it down. She didn't seem to mind. She kept on smiling and staring at me with her big blue eyes and chewing on her hand... It was like stealing candy from a baby... ;)
However, Anya did like chewing on the Smarties' box.
It's a good deal we have set up. I eat the inside of the candy boxes and she eats the outside. We almost feel like we are native Americans who would never waste any part of the buffalo... but in this case it is a box of candy... All is of value... to someone.
In addition, the Easter bunny came and hid two large eggs. Lindy and Anya still have yet to find them. I was able to find them but I'm worried they never will. The eggs were hid a little too high and thus both Anya and Lindy probably can't see the eggs from their altitude...
(Maybe if they read this post it will give them a clue.)
So, our own family Easter egg hunt is still ongoing. (I guess we will have to keep you posted on that one as well). This reminds me of another Easter when I was younger where my siblings and I weren't able to finding all the eggs and after a week or two the living room was smelling pretty nasty... Oh well. If that happens again, I suppose we won't be living here forever...
Anyway, we want to wish everyone a Happy Easter and a.... Merry 2007 tax season!
