Easter Marauders 2013 – Preschool Edition

Easter1Okay, I know this is a little premature, but I have this paranoia that I won’t post the day of Easter, and then it’ll be too late!

This picture was taken on Thursday evening.  I know. It’s a terrible Photoshop job on an already terrible phone-cam photo, but hey, you work with whatcha got! Manda called me and asked if I would help her maraud her preschool, and as it is a grand tradition, I said YES. We went to Diddams and Target and bought all sorts of fun, Easter-y doodads.

We stuffed 120 plastic eggs full of candy, stickers, and novelty rings. We prepped a bunch of Easter-themed activities for little ones, like painting balloons, making baskets out of a paper bags and pipe cleaners, and accomplished other important stuff like ordering my favorite pizza (Pizz’a Chicago!) and eating Manda’s Rolos.

I’m really hoping that she and I can take a nice photo with the Easter Bunny this year, but I dunno if she’ll have time. The last time we took an Easter Bunny photo, we did it on a whim, and we were wearing jackets and jeans. It was….. ugly. I told her next time, we needed to be in fancy dresses and look GOOD. SO MUCH PRESSURE!!!

Anyway, inspired by my nail guru goddess Kelly-Anne, I painted a bunny on my nail. The other ones were supposed to be, like, Jelly Belly themed, but they just look like I had a seizure while attempting polka dots. Oh well. Live and learn!
