today eggs rained from the skies

the easter bunny flew over in a helicopter and dumped eggs out. silly easter bunny.
here's me collecting eggs

i had a pretty good morning. got up and spent time with dad. he and i had breakfast together. we watched some only fools and horses. mom helped me get ready, then she helped dad get ready. he got a hair cut today and mom checked it for him. we all jumped in the car and drove off.
mom and i dropped dad off at work. bye dad, see you later. mom then drove us out into the countryside, off to the next town for an easter egg event. it was not very far and as a result, got there very early. mom decided that we should go do something else for a bit. so she turned the car around and we drove a little further into the countryside to the UF dairy barn. they're having an open house today.
mom parked the car in a field and we got out. there were tractor rides up to the barn. mom and i climbed up in the back of the tractor wagon and sat on some hay bales. it was not very far from the cars to the barn but the tractor took forever. oh my god, this is so slow! finally we made it and everyone got off the wagon. mom signed us in and we got these weird looking blue bags to wear over our shoes. what the heck? our first stop was the baby cows. calves they're called. the baby calves were in pens. mom went up to one and gave it some nose scratches. the calf seemed to like that because then it started trying to lick mom. cows have big fat wet tongues. there was slobber. gross. mom tried to get me to touch the calf- no freaken way. i didn't want to get anywhere near those things. so mom took me over to the tractors. i got up on one of them and touched every switch i could. i was pushing buttons and turning knobs. yeah, that's my kind of fun. mom took a couple pictures and then we just walked back to the car. mom said there's no point in staying if i don't want to hang out with cows, you know since it's a dairy farm and all.
we got back in the car and mom drove us back to the easter egg place. some guy pointed us to a parking space in a big field and we were all set. mom parked the car. i grabbed my easter basket and off we went.
there were a few bounce houses set up. i got to go in the spongebob one. i love spongebob. i had a nice long bounce since we were early and not a lot of kids were around.
mom and i walked around a little when i was done with my bounce. we stopped and looked at the highway patrol motorcycle. it was very fancy. the police officer set off the siren for us. that was loud! next mom and i went to the snack booth. she ordered us a can of soda. we sat and shared some soda. it's kind of hot out and the soda was nice and cold. then it was just walking around and around waiting for the easter bunny to get in the helicopter. i stood and looked at the choper for a bit. it's kind of cool.
by the time the easter bunny took to the air the whole place was packed with kids and their parents. where did all these people come from? the easter bunny flew over and dropped some plastic eggs in the fields. the people in charge made sure the egg drop area was clear so no one got hit in the head. the little kids went first in their baby field. they got to have help from their moms. then it was my turn- in the big kid field. i went off on my own, picking eggs. it was great. i filled my basket up. then all hell broke loose. there were kids and parents everywhere. i just went right along picking up eggs but mom got lost. eventually the crowed thinned out and mom found me again, happily picking up the last straggling eggs. mom said there would have been big trouble if i went home with someone else. i traded in my eggs for a bag of candy. hard work has it's rewards.
mom let me have another go on the spongebob bounce house before we went to the car.
so i had a pretty fun filled morning. mom and i made it home just before the massive thunderstorm rolled through. now it's raining out and we're going to watch movies. whooo-hoo.
