Happy Easter!

Catherine Wagner and I are the volunteer Co-hairs for the Ronald McDonald House of Dallas Young Friends.  Every month, we organize two events, a craft night and a cook night.  On cook nights, we typically have 10-12 volunteers cook dinner for the 60-70 people staying in the house.  It's a blast to find fun recipes, buy the ingredients, and teach others how to cook...all the while sharing home-cooked meals with the families. 

Yesterday however, we had a craft night!  In honor of the upcoming Easter holiday, we decided to make these adorable Easter Bunnies with the kids!  They were a huge hit!


http://familyfun.go.com/easter/easter-crafts/all-easter-crafts/sock-hop-841022/ We used baby socks so our bunnies came out to be a 4 inches in height. 
Quick run through of the steps:

1. fill sock 3/4 full with beans
2. tie rubber band at the top of the beans
3. Cut down the center of the top of the sock to make two flaps (ears)
4. tie ribbon at the top of the body to make a head
5. glue on cotton ball or pom-pom to make a tail
6. glue light pink pom for a nose
7. glue two googly eyes
8. cut buck teeth from felt and glue

DONE!

 My bunny!  Though I'm not the most creative, I thought it turned out pretty well. =)
Happy Easter!
