Happy Easter!


I hope everyone has a wonderful day today!! 
Did you have a nice holiday ? I hope so. We had a nice dinner at Grandmas and had a nice Easter egg hunt. Later we played a game called Chubby Bunny. I gave a prize to the person who won. 

Chubby Bunny is a game you play to get as many Peeps candy in your mouth and still be able to say Chubby Bunny. I'll post a video in a minute. The video i'll load is my nephew who won.

Forgot some things from Wally World

I had to back today because i forgot to get something for the Easter basket. Grrr. I also some some things marked down so i had to get them too. Good news is i saw my 2 favorite cashiers today. Don & i believe Mindy ? Sorry if it is Mandy istead. I have horrible time remembering names. 

Don was so nice he gave me a hug, Now how many cashiers would go out of the way to make you feel nice and have an enjoyable shopping experience ? And Mindy she saw me come in the door and talked to me. So Walmart at least did 2 things right, lol. They hired 2 people i like there. There is a horrible lady who works there can not remember her name but i gave her an enjoyable experience before, lol.
