mary meets the easter bunny

a week ago today we took mary to an easter egg hunt in tribeca
it was put on for free by a church.
it included face painting, some crazy easter rendition games, an egg hunt, massive crowds of people, and that lovable cousin to the rodent- rabbit. (or easter bunny for the season)
when we arrived the line to get in was around the block.... but literally- wrapping around the block; so close to two blocks long.
we almost called it quits right there....
but new york city has a respectable way of moving lines along so we decided to wait awhile and see how it fared.
here's how things went down

mary got crazy with easter ambition so that sealed the deal

we had a lovely background

 mary commandeered the slide....

and nearly got ran down by the bigger kids 

then she decided other activities were more her forte

 she wanted her face painted

but had no regard for the line

then it was her time to find eggs

they filled a small classroom with balloons and hid eggs in them 

they had an early walkers group just for mare and her peers

 she felt alive with easter hoppiness....

 popped more balloons than picked up eggs

 then her parents forced her to collect a few eggs for a pic

 she decided she liked eggs filled with candy 

but got greedy and went for the "big" eggs instead

 then she boycotted egg hunt end

after this fine hunt i waited in line so mary could meet the easter bunny

she loved every second of this parent inflicted torture

he/she really was an extra nice easter bunny (a lot nicer than the macy's santa claus....)

 and just for good measure here's some i edited to look extra creepy

grateful this church put on this cute easter celebration. 

it was great and entertaining and mary mostly loved it. 

happiest of easter's to all of you!
