So.. three Easter’s ago I hid all of my 3 kids Easter eggs under the stairs. Come Easter morning I go to get them out to hide them and they’ve all been half eaten! We discovered a family of mice hiding under some old carpet... Easter ruined!
Last Easter I got up at 5am to hide the eggs, climbed back into bed and waited for the kids to come and get us. We all go downstairs. Kids squealing with excitement only to find a bunch of squirrels feasting on our eggs up in a big tree. I shit you not I could almost hear them laughing at us. Cheeky squirrel bastards!!!
This year.. (luckily I have time to fix this but still! Ffs!) I had hidden the eggs in a bag inside our enclosed front porch. Under a pile of coats and umbrellas. The kids are older now and I have to get crafty with the hiding of Easter eggs. Someone had left the sliding door slightly open and when I went to lock up before bed I discover our coats strewn across the driveway, along with all of our Easter eggs! All of them ripped open and lying on the street. Bloody foxes got into the porch and sniffed them out!! Wtf?!
The only thing keeping me from crying right now is knowing that a fair few of the chocolate bunnies were full of popping candy 😂
