Spring in Springfield is full of fun for little ones! We’ve had back to back weekends of good times at local parks. Last weekend we enjoyed perfect weather, pinatas, kites and ukuleles at the Cherry Blossom Festival!
While we had a great time, I’m pretty sure the rest of the city’s population was there too. The crazy large crowd made decide to opt out of “Easter at the Farm” the next weekend. That is, until this morning.
With the cool temps today, I figured the crowds would be pretty thin, and Caleb told me he wanted to meet the Easter Bunny. Based on our past experiene with mascot characters and Santa, I had my doubts he’d follow through, but thought, “what the heck?” When we got there we hopped right into a short line to get a picture with the Bunny. Both boys gave me great smiles and high fived the Bunny. As we walked away Caleb said, “I wasn’t scared at all!” We made crafts, hunted eggs, said hi to the animals, had a picnic lunch and played on the play set until the frigid temps were too much to handle and nap time arrived. Caleb didn’t quite make it home before falling asleep.
