Goats and Princesses

On Saturday we went to a local Easter egg hunt. It said it was 2 hours long and and when we got there we found out that the hour that we had to be there was not when they were doing the actual hunt. Bummer. But they did have a petting zoo and other little kid activities going on so it wasn't a total waste. EZ loved the petting zoo and especially the baby goats. They were so cute.


Here is an attempt at a family shot, ruined not only be the funny looks on everyone's faces but also by the awkward crotch shot going on behind John's head.

We were finally able to capture a cute one of John and Netta.
We only had one hour there, because EZ had to head off to his friend's princess birthday party. The invitation said to come in costume if possible. EZ was only one of two boys there and the best costume I could come up with was this Prince Charming shirt. All the princesses running around in full costume gave me a somewhat frightening look into Netta's future. I just can't get over how it seems that every little girl is obsessed with princesses. And honestly it isn't forced on them by anyone. They really want to be dressed like a princess at all times. Anyway, you will also notice EZ's awesome dragon tattoo.

Finally the highlight of the party, beating the crap out of a life sized Cinderella pinata. It might be hard to tell but she is actually strung up by her neck. EZ absolutely loved this and didn't want to let anyone else have a turn. I think for his birthday I will get a pinata just for himself so he can go crazy and not have to share.

I love your commentary - pointing out the lovely crotch behind John's head - that gave me a good laugh.

Looks like a fun day! Although I have to say that stringing a life-size Cinderella up by her neck is a little creepy... :)
