The Missing Basket Mystery!

Caydin is a HUGE fan of Busytown right now.  If you don't know, its based on Richard Scarry books/characters.  Each show, the characters have to solve a mystery.  So on Easter morning, Caydin had to solve his own mystery! It turned out SOOOO GOOD, like sooooo much better than the glow-in-the-dark egg hunt idea.. I wonder who's idea that was.... anyways.  When Rob asked Caydin if the Easter bunny came, Caydin ran to the front room, looked in the area where he thought it should be and said, rather depressingly, "The Easter bunny didn't come." Heartbreaking.  After a few moments of whining, I lead him back to the front home and helped him find the note on the front door that the Easter bunny left.  He asked me to read it and was excited to solve the mystery!!! We grabbed our shoes and headed outside to look for the mystery easter baskets! 
"Look!! Footprints!"
Caydin had to follow the Easter bunny footprints all around the yard.  He kept yelling "More footprints!!" and "Look, footprints over there!"
Finally!! He found the missing baskets!
Then we spent time relaxing in the toy room looking at all the goodies that the Easter bunny brought the boys.  Everyone had such a good morning!
Even Wy got a few new toys in his basket! He wasn't so into the Easter bunny footprints but I know next year, he will be and will join in the fun!
