We have been going to the bunny hole since Katrina's first Easter. It is a family tradition of ours....and sadly, this year two of my children were not with me on our outing. Katrina is at college and Greta and her friend Kristen when to Florida during their Spring break to visit.
So Emma Sage, Otto and their cousin Mikey and I all headed off to the Bunny hole on Friday [World Down syndrome Day] and had a great little visit. The original Bunny hole was so cool....you went up steps to the second floor of the shop and in the dark went through the hole and witnessed little vignettes that 'peeked' into scenes right out of Beatrix Potter.....the bunny family having tea.....the fox family in their little den reading books...etc. Then you went through a two little slides, ending on the big long slide [that is still part of the Bunny hole] but now [I assume because of fire codes] the whole is just a dark little room that has Vignettes in the middle and a few around the sides of the circular room.
All-in-all......it is still Magical and a wonderful outing that I know that Emma Sage will take each year in the spring before Easter arrives.
Running up to the Magic Shop.....excited to get to the Bunny Hole
Hello Mr. Bunny
Sliding down the Bunny Hole Slide
One of the Vignettes
Shopping for a treat....
off to pay for her treat...
Off to find the cashier, as the first place she checked was not the check-out.......Of coarse I can't 'help' her as she has to do everything by herself [go away Mom]
This woman was so sweet and started 'Chatting' with Emma Sage.....
Even getting down to Emma Sage's level to talk with her......Emma Sage was just enjoying all this attention and her being able to shop by herself!!!
All Done......
General Store for a drink and a sandwich.....
aCatch me if you can.........this is Emma Sage's favorite thing [well, one of her favorite things] to do......run and make me chase after her!!!!
