Big Bunnies on Blaine
Early in the morning at The Bunny House (aka Halloween House) found the Big Bunnies welcoming neighborhood children and parents on Sunday, May 20th. Clearly “somebunny” was up really early hiding colorful eggs for little ones carrying baskets–or really little ones being carried. Big Bunny Don led the enthusiastic egg seekers in a vigorous round of hopping before giving the ear wiggle signal to begin the hunt. Big Bunny James presided over a grand eggy buffet and helped “egg on” a few hesitant hunters. Some egg seekers came costumed to bond with the bunnies; some dressed for a garden party; some blended into the crowd, but EVERYONE had a memorable time, and applauded the Bunny Hospitality. Thanks Big Guys! Montlake doesn’t just like you; Montlake loves you!
