Switched Baskets

Easter morning Liz was up at 6 - as usual. I gave her some chocolate milk and a Gogurt, turned on cartoons, and went back to bed. I thought that she wouldn't notice the Easter baskets on the table...perhaps I was a bit delirious in my tired state. Around 7 I could hear rustling around and decided I'd better get up if I wanted any good pictures before the baskets were annihilated. When I emerged from my room, I noticed that Jared was also awake but on the couch watching Ben 10. Liz however had her basket on the ground - although she hadn't taken too much out of it. I had them go to the table and took this picture:


It was then that I noticed a few interesting things. First, someone had put Liz's jewelry into Jared's basket thus effectively having Jared and Liz switch baskets. Second, someone had taken her Peeps and put them into Lucas's basket. I don't understand this little girl sometimes!

Of course their favorite items from their baskets were also the cheapest! I found these books a few weeks back super discounted out at Walgreens.



About an hour and a half later, Lucas graced us with his appearance. He enjoyed his basket and didn't seem to notice its lack of candy.


In fact, I think he rather enjoyed his eggs filled with Cheerios!

Great idea on the eggs filled with Cheerios--you should market them! :) I'll remember that for next year when I have three baskets to fill! :}
