Noah's first Easter! |
I can’t believe Easter is next week! Where has all the time
gone? It seems like just yesterday I was putting up my Christmas Tree. I love Easter, it is one
of my favorite holidays. It reminds me about what Christ did for me. I also
love the festivities and traditions my family has. We always dye eggs,
surprisingly I really like the smell of vinegar. I started the tradition of doing an Easter
Egg hunt with Noah. I have some really cute pictures and videos of egg hunts in
the past. My favorite Easter tradition is hunting for Easter baskets. Sometimes
the Easter Bunny leaves your basket out in the open, but at my house he hides
them. It is fun to hunt for it. A few times I have found it in the dryer, the
closet and even outside once. Noah loves going on the hunt. This year it might
be a little tricky to hide. The Easter Bunny really has to put his thinking
cap on, and find a great place. I wonder
what kinds of goodies and surprises are going to make it in Noah’s basket. Did
I mention, he uses the basket that I used since I was like four? I think that
is a pretty cool tradition too. I am
sure there will be some great treats.
The Easter bunny doesn’t do a ton of candy, but there is always some. There
are so many great Easter candies to choose from, and I love candy.
I was contacted by Hershey’s to hop down the Bunny Trail.
The Bunny Trail allows you to make a virtual Easter baskets, and share your Easter traditions and memories. I guess
I am really lucky because they sent me my basket. I was able to customize the basket; I picked
green, my favorite color. Pink grass because it would look like Spring. Then the most difficult part of the trip down
the Bunny Trail, picking out the candy I wanted to try. I love so many kinds only picking five was
kind of tricky for me. I am very happy with my choices though. First thing I pick was York Peppermint Patty
Eggs. I really like peppermint and I know that it’s one of Noah’s favorite
candies. Any candy shaped in an egg is
very festive in my opinion. The next thing I picked was Jolly Ranchers
Wildberry Jelly Beans, because you have to have Jelly beans for Easter. I really like that they have flavors like Strawberry
Watermelon and Blue Raspberry. My mom who doesn’t really like a lot of candy,
really liked the jelly beans too.
Since I love Jolly
Ranchers, I also picked the Jolly Ranchers Sours. I already know how good these
are. I just really like them. They aren’t too sour and have the classic Jolly
Rancher flavor. I always eat all the
Watermelons first, then the Cherry, then Apple, and then Orange. The folks at Hershey’s must have known
because there were a lot of Watermelon ones in there. Next I picked the Snack Sized Twizzlers.
Twizzlers are so yummy. I like these because I can give a pack to Noah and it
is just enough candy for him. He literally
chased me all over until I opened my Easter Basket. I asked my
friends on Facebook if I had to share with anyone and everyone said no. I
decided to share though. It’s no fun having such a fun basket of treats and
being stingy. I also know that Noah would have chased me around again. The last thing I picked I am not
sharing. I got a giant Resse’s Peanut
Butter Egg. I have never seen one this big.
Noah asked me for a slice of it.
I said nope. I love Reese’s
peanut butter eggs, and this one is huge.
I did make sure the Easter Bunny saves him a normal sized one for his
basket. I am so excited and happy with the special trip I went on down the
Hershey’s Bunny Trail.
I hope you will try out some of these special Hershey’s
Easter treats.

Thank you so much to Hershey’s for sending me my awesome
Easter Basket. I created while I hopped down the Bunny Trail. All thoughts and opinions
are my own.
That sounds like a lot of fun
