Easter Basket Fun

So Grandpa and Grandma Weiss send the kiddos Easter stuff in a package each year. Our kids aren't there for their annual Easter egg hunt with all the cousins, so they like us to feel included and loved. We think it's very sweet of them, thanks again guys! Inside was a little basket full of goodies, nicknacks, and candy for them to share. Among the little gadgets were the foam animals that come in capsules. (I don't know what they are officially called) You stick the capsule in warm water, it dissolves, and a sponge animal appears and grows. Pretty tricky. Gabe LOVED it. Here are pictures of us trying it out. We had a few that didn't work out, but it most turned out actually pretty cool. Gabe kept guessing we'd get a sheep, (the back showed the animals it could be) and we didn't get one. That's okay, cause we got a good variety. The end picture doesn't do them justice. I rounded up the ones I could find to get a picture, and they were some funny ones. There is a pig, a cow, a horse and a goose in that picture. If any of you were wondering. She carried them around all day in her pockets and in things, so they weren't quit in tip top shape, but you get the drift.
