Easter Surprise or Blunder??

By
Home Inspector with H.I.S. Home Inspections (Summit, Stark Counties)

Just for fun, how many of you have ever dressed up like an Easter Bunny, and showed up to suprise friends or relatives with children?

I did this one year, and it was a real blast, especially before they figured out who I was.

At first, you could see the fear in their eyes, grabbing their children, pushing them behind them. Then you hop around the yard a few times, drop a few eggs on the ground and the kids are off and running, following your every hop. I'm thinking about renting the costume again this year. Ahh, maybe not.

Have a Hoppy Easter!

August?? Must have been hot! Maybe you should have tried it a little closer to EASTER?

Nobody wants a 6ft stinky bunny in their yard in August!

I have 9 huge plastic eggs filled with goodies for my nieces and nephews- wish I had the bunny costume when I deliver them- sounds like fun--these eggs are the kind that hold a gallon of candy and goodies-.

I was the Easter Bunny at Shop Rite where I worked as a cashier as a teenager oh so many years ago.  It was really strange to see the reaction of kids, everything from terror to intense joy.  I never thought to do it when my kids were young though.  Do you think my 18, 15, and 13 year olds would be into it?  I guess I missed my chance. Well there is always the hope that one of them will bring me grandchildren one day.

Have a great Easter!

Once a restaurant I was working for asked for a volunteer to be the Easter Bunny.  Once the costume was on, head and all & me inside, the bunny was 6' 8" - kids were scared to death!  Haven't wanted to do that again - it was 90 degrees that day.  Kevin's right about the deodorant!

Kevin,  Can't say that I ever did that before, or at least admit it.  I'll bet it was an interesting experience.
