Easter, 2001

It is Easter, 2001.  We started with the Annual Easter Egg Hunt at the park in Atherton - a first for Katie.    She was lined up with lots of other kids awaiting the start.  Unfortunately the start lacked a little in organization and someone sent the early kids off 15 minutes before everyone had gathered.  Needless to say, the egg haul was massive!   On her way out Katie noticed that all the eggs were gone and a lot of the other children were not getting any eggs - so she spontaneously started giving her eggs away to those without any.  (She must get that from her mother!)  Click here to see the Easter Egg Hunt video.

She also got to sit on the Easter Bunnies lap.    She has come to associate a holiday where you sit on a costumed character's lap with (what else) presents!  And given that every relation and acquaintance sent her some, I suspect she will continue to milk this until after she is a teenager!!!!!

On Easter morning there was ANOTHER egg hunt in our back yard.    Check out the frost on the ground as Katie scurried to find the eggs:    But she found them all with a few complaining asides about the ice on the eggs....

The it was off to church in the finery; here are the ladies

And as a special bonus, her father took Katie for her FIRST game of miniature golf.  She of course claimed to have mastered the game after the second hole, measured principally be her ability to a) whack the ball, and b) find the next hole. 

There is also a pretty funny movie of this - but be forewarned it is about 3 meg.  Click here to see it.
