Today, just a few minutes after THE STONE RABBIT had gone outside for his morning "constitution", I heard him excitedly yelling at me to come and look at what he'd found!!!
Just as I got to the edge of the front steps I could see what was making him so happy!
Yes, sir!! Right in the middle of our holly bushes and day lilies sat a giant chocolate rabbit!!!
Now we get lots of real live bunnies through our yard and of course I have collected several concrete yard hoppers, but this is a first for me. . . .a giant chocolate rabbit right there in front of the house!!!
THE STONE RABBIT was already chattering away with the big guy by the time I reached them and shared with me that our "visitor" had heard about how we were gonna have the family over on Easter. . . and he was just wondering if it would be OK for him to stay til then so he could watch the little grand kids hunt eggs in our yard!
Of course I told him we'd love to have him hang out as long as he wanted to. . . and I'm certain the grand kiddos will enjoy having him be a part of their egg hunt!!
Please visit our hostess, Beverly, at HOW SWEET THE SOUND. She is certain to have a lot of bloggers who are ready to share their Easter surprises with you!!
Happy Pink Saturday and may your Easter be one filled with many joys.
DANA

I've never had a giant chocolate rabbit show up in my yard! That's not fair.

I feel a little left out that a chocolate bunny has never bothered to visit my house!!! He sure looks cute in your front yard, though! Have a Happy Easter!!!

Hi Dana -- Happy Easter. So cute-- He does look like he's made of chocolate and the other little bunny looking at him keeps us in smiles. Blessings Terri http://morningdewdrops.com

Happy Pink Saturday, dear Dana. Thank you for always making Pink Saturday special. I count you among my blessings.♥
Now, on to the subject of The Chocolate Bunny visitor. Wow! Who wouldn't want a giant chocolate bunny to visit their home?!!! I don't notice any bites gone out of him yet. I say give him a little taste. After all, that is what chocolate bunnies are for - right?!
Happy Easter to you and your family. And, a very Happy Easter to TSR from Theodore.

Hi Dana, I am loving the big ole rabbit. What is he made of? Please don't say chocolate. HA! A perfect surprise for your darling grands. Also, for the Stone Rabbit. He might get a bit jealous.
We are off to go shopping and I'm not ready. Happy Easter my dear blogging friend.
Blessings and love,
Jeanne
