Happy Easter

The girls got up about ten to seven and rushed upstairs to find a couple cryptic clues from Edgar Easter Bunny. They eventually figured out that he had hidden their hard-boiled eggs inside, their plastic eggs outside, and left them a trail of clues outside leading to their baskets. Here are the clues he left. Can you figure them out?

1. I'm a sweet bunny, I cannot take flight. For the next clue, look near the globe ______.

2. Be careful with the eggs, says old Mother Hen. For the next clue, look by the ________ ___.

6. This hunt is so fun, oh what great sport. The next clue should be on Papa's boules _____.

At breakfast, the girls started doing a miming game. From animals, they went on to objects, and then people. They mimed Sylvain several times. Each time involved him yelling, either at soccer on TV or at them. Laureva did me once. She mimed me doing various chores.

After breakfast, the girls each did a bit of homework. Then, Laureva helped Maeva work on her lines for an upcoming performance of Pagnol's Cigalon. She has the main role. That kept them busy until lunch. Meanwhile, I baked a batch of choc-oat-chip cookies.

After lunch, Marie-Elisabeth took the girls to the seaside to meet up with the Reys and Gabrielle and Louis, who just arrived yesterday for a week. It was a lovely warm day and they were able to go for their first swim of the year and test out their new flamingo swimsuits.

Here, we only see them wading, but Laureva assured me that they went all the way in and even got their heads wet with surf.
