These Things Are Multiplying Like Rabbits

I was gone all day yesterday
and had company until
11pm last night-
so bear with me while I
catch up on your blogs today.

Well, last week I showed you
a few of my bunnies.
Today,
I find that they are multiplying
whilst I sleep.
Yes.They.Are.
Here is the threesome
that is on my dining room mantle.
As you can see, I startled them so....
they are running away.
Then Miss Rosie Rabbit 
made her way up the steps
and tried to hide under the plants 
in the corner.
I call her Miss Rosy cuz of the sweet little blush
on her cheeks.
She came to life on my sewing machine
in 1988.
She had about 100 brothers and sisters
and they were all adopted out except
Rosie and her brother, Rex.
Rex is still sleeping but Rosie is
moving around....
As she got braver she moved to
her favorite chair in the family room window.
Hmmmm...these bunnies look like
they have had
HARE RAISING NEWS
Yes-indeedy....
They heard their cousins were
coming to visit.
Why is that so scary?
Well...this is all they have left for lunch....
Kind of like inviting my two 
son-in-laws over when I only have
ONE Key Lime Pie.  Scary...

    No such thing as too many bunnies. :) I could actually use some in our new house but I'm not going to go through my seasonal boxes until we move to our permanent home. You've tempted me to at least buy a couple. Too cute.
    Have a beautiful Saturday, friend.
    XOXO's

    Those bunnies are so darn cute-if your house alarm goes off in the middle of the night, just ignore it 'kay. ;-) I've got to find me some bunnies.

    Diana, I remember working with a fellow that his wife collected floppy eared bunnies. He said if he saw another he would go stark raving mad. LOL...dang how many did she have? Kid sure love them. I do not want to see that many bunnies around her, after all we have an army of sqiurrels. Stay warm , we are in for snow the next two days. Well then again, by Friday the temperature will be near 50...Yahoo. xoxo,Susie

    reminded me of a sweet little picture my late sister-in-law had in her home . . . you may have seen one like it . . .
    "beware. this house is protected
    by killer dust bunnies"
    my darling mother hand made a rabbit for me once a little similar to miss rosy. i loved her more than anything. xo
    and the rabbit too!

    Haha-too funny! All our bunnies finally escaped from the attic yesterday as well. At this moment, there are probably 20 of them on the floor in the living room. :)

    Too Funny Diana. I follow my Rule# 1. I always have two of everything when I expect the sons and the son in law! Well generally there is three of everything. LOL They all live out of the area, so I have time to plan! Lord only knows what would happen if they lived close enough to just drop by. LOL

    You're so funny! I love Easter and today needs to be the day I get out all of my decor, for heaven't sake! I came into my office specifically to do a blog post (my grandson's first birthday - it was hard to choose which photos to use of the 200 I took ... come see!) and now it's off to my own house to get some Easter-On! Thanks for the inspiration.

    Miss Rosie looks so familiar. I may have had one of her cousins way back in the day. Hope you're not getting walloped with more snow this weekend. We're getting 3-6 inches on Monday. Just a light dusting.

    My Girlfriend and her mother made tons and tons of Rosie's in the 80's too!!! All wearing different outfits - some with glasses - they were too adorable - and they actually were selling them!
    Looks like your bunnies have multiplied like your christmas decorations - what goes on in that basement anyway lol?

    I had the same problem with bunnies all over the place. I must have made 100 of those also. One was a bride and groom and all sorts of other rabbits.
    Sold most of them but one that stays on my bed. Was fun wasn't it? Making all those bunnies. Love the bunnies on your mantle.

    Cute bunnies, and I'm feeling I should have "adopted" some for Easter. I saw a lot of bunnies at the antique/decor Spring event, but didn't buy a one. What was I thinking?

    Diana,
    I love, LOVE, L O V E your bunnies!!! Those on the mantle are adorable!!! We use to have a MoMa and her babies every Spring in the backyard. Roaming neighborhood cats have caused rabbits to be scarce. I so miss the rabbits!!!
    Thanks for your sweet comments and visits!!!
    Have a blessed Holy Week and upcoming Easter!!!
