We always had Easter baskets when we were kids and had the same tradition for our kids. They had baskets for a lot of years - I'm a thinking even until Amy was in college. Then we just started getting them their favorite Easter candy instead of a basket of things that didn't get eaten and were left to go stale.

Last year I didn't get Jasmine a basket cuase she has a mean mommy. But she got some books and stuffed toys. Probably won't get her much candy this year either cause her mommy won't let her eat it cause she might get messy or soemthing. (Good thing Christy doesn't have time to get on pet Talk anymore, huh?) And anyone who tattles is in real trouble with me.

(Johanna, I like the malted milk ball eggs and Jelly beans (not spiced ones though) and.... Oh heck, anything chocolate!)

We always found a big empty basket on the couch and had to search for the rest filling our huge basket. Have fun Jonah these fun things don't last long!!

I think you should spoil Jonah!

My mom did it 2 yrs in a row. I was 14 & 15yrs old. I cheated. I took Max (RIP dog) & pointed to all sorts of areas of the house, telling him to search (I taught him so many usefull things hehe). I found sooo many. He even found some that were 6 feet up! I didn't even have to get them myself either.. He would grab the chocolate eggs & spit them on the floor for me. SO all I had to do was pick them up off the floor & every so often give him a carrot

I was sooo bad hahaha

As my mom already said, we got Easter baskets for a long. I remember getting clothes, CD's and other cool things as we out grew the need for 8 tons of candy!
I know Ralph's family did the Easter basket thing too, as his mom still colors eggs and makes one for each of the dogs.

So yes, Jonah should have his! And if you just happen to have any extra Greater's choclate laying around, you have my address!!

We didn't get baskets exactly, but we had candy hidden all over the house. Sometimes we found those marshmellow egg things months later! It was great fun. My Mom still sends me a chocolate bunny every year! Jonah should definately have some Easter goodies!
