Happy Easter! The Easter bunny found me at Grandma and Grandpa's house in Brookings, SD! I found my baskets!
Here a chick, there a chick!
I went to Runnings' farm implement store to see the chicks.
And the ducks! Some tried to eat my bunny shoes as Grandma held me up for a closer look.
I had my picture taken with the Easter Bunny.
We went to Sue and Randy Knutzen's house to dye Easter eggs.
I had to eat before I could dye eggs, so Sue fed me.
Pete and Jamie McKinney dye eggs. We tried many techniques - marbling, tie-dye, sponged, glittered, and regular, of course!

Merle held me when it was time for my nap. I woke up happy!
My turn to dye an egg! I colored it with a green crayon (with mommy's help) and dyed it pink.
Look at my egg in the dye!
Wow! Look at all those eggs!
We visited Ben Bossman and his family at Pam and Merritt Warren's house. The grandmas loved holding the babies.

Aunt Katie and I played on the couch.
I had to help Grandma make cinnamon rolls. As the dough is rising, it occassionally needs to be "punched down" before continuing to rise.
We floured my feet and stomped it down.
Are grapes next?

I loved being held by Jim, especially when he laughed!
