We kicked off Earth Day (Friday) by taking the day off work and heading to the California Science Center. We lunched at the Border Grill truck (I really liked Mary Sue Milliken's ceviche) and spent lots of time exploring the various exhibits, including the new Ecosystems exhibit.
On Saturday, we left home early in the morning to head to La Canada with Amma and Baba. Dilbeck hosted their annual Easter party at Memorial Park -- and it was fantastic! First, we were greeted by our realtor, Shirley Owens, who gave us balloons. Then we bought some raffle tickets to see if we could win a stuffed bunny (and I did win one -- hooray!). Next, we headed over to the petting zoo, where daddy picked up some baby goats for me to pet (I tried to do the same later). They also had baby alpacas, fluffy chickens, sheep and - of course - bunnies! Next, it was time for the Easter Egg hunt and photo ops with the Easter Bunny. I forgot my Easter basket, so I emptied my Hello Kitty lunchbag and used that. It worked -- and I got lots of candy for daddy to eat! After the egg hunt, I practically RAN to the bounce house. When I needed a break, I treated myself to a pedicure (with bright pink polish!) and an Easter tattoo. Then it was time to bounce again. I also played some games, got my hand painted (Elmo's head popping out of an Easter egg to fit the theme), pinned the tail on the bunny and engaged in an egg relay race before heading back to the animal pen to pet more bunnies and hug more goats. They felt the love. To top it all off, Twinkle and Friends performed! All of the kids were invited to join them to dance at the front of the stage! I think I liked this part best. I danced, danced, and danced to my heart's delight! I had such a great time and enjoyed their performance so much that I insisted on taking pictures with them at the end, too.
This morning, I went with mommy, daddy and Amma to Giggles N Hugs in Century City for Easter brunch. I spent some quality time with the Easter Bunny there too, and made out like a bandit in the Easter egg hunt before having breakfast and playing in the GNH play area! I had a lot of fun there, too. Later, we had some tea and crackers. What a lovely Sunday!
Here are some pictures from yesterday's festivities in LC:

Enjoying some entertainment. I had a comfy seat. 
Hey goaty goaty! Come here so I can give you a hug! 
Pretty cool tattoo, isn't it? I chose what tattoos we all had. Daddy got a pink bunny. Baba was assigned an equally masculine pink egg with a duck popping out of it. Amma had a sheep tattoo'd on her hand. And for mommy, I chose a fluffy bunny pulling an easter egg cart with a ducky in it. 
Getting ready to run to collect eggs in the Easter egg hunt!
