A Bunny Dance

One of my favorite TV shows is 'So You Think You Can Dance' - I watch it entranced with a huge grin on my face. I, on the other hand, am no a dancer - I've been known to clear whole dance floors by lurching into scary Footloose types of body shaking after a few too many glasses of wine ... but lets not recount those moments.

Did you know that the bunnies in the Rachael Rabbit workshop like to dance? (but unfortunately they are not as delicate as dear Grace.) So after attending Vanessa's Tea Party - in their matching bunny print dresses - they have decided to burn off the yummy and beautiful cakes (yes they sampled all four!) with some dancing in the garden.

Though it is little known, bunnies are very good at maypole dancing ... cue the music ...
... it gets crowded weaving in and out ...
... someone looks like she is having fun flying around the maypole ...
... an aerial action shot ...
... coming to the end of the ribbons - doesn't the maypole look pretty!
Well done ladies - how about a line up for a big round of applause?
Well that wasn't quite the angle I was thinking of - but your tails are so wonderful and fluffy. (Why do bunny tails make me quite so happy?)

A Bunny Picnic

The sun came out this weekend and we invited some friends to a special garden picnic. Here come the bunnies hopping down the hill ...
... bunnies love garden picnics ...
... the boys talked about growing lettuces in the vegetable patch ...
... and the girls talked about carrot cake recipes ...
... soon all the food was eaten - but who will get the last cupcake?
We played hide and seek too ... 1 bunny tail, 2 bunny tails ...... 40 bunny tails - ready or not here I come!
It was a wonderful picnic in the sun, on the lawn under the big tree. I suspect that there was a little chemistry between these two ... who knows what the future might hold ... perhaps a bunny wedding?

Getting Ready

All the bunnies in the Rachael Rabbit workshop are getting ready for the bunny picnic (although the weather is a bit of a shame - grey and drizzling)

This little bunny is having a shower ...
... but she doesn't know which summer dress she should wear. They are all quite pretty.

Bunny and the Lost Trousers

Bunny is hiding in the cupboard because he is embarrassed.

Me: "Why are you hiding Bunny?"
Bunny: "I'm embarrassed because I'm not wearing any clothes. I have lost my trousers."
Me: "Well don't worry Bunny - we can just make you some more."

Bunny (sadly): "I don't think these fit me - they are rather short."
Me: "OK I'll make another pair."

Bunny (horrified): "These are far far too tight."
Me: "I'm sorry Bunny I don't know why I'm struggling to make trousers today. I'll try one more time. Third time lucky!"

Bunny: "Oh thank you - these fit just right. I'm very pleased with them - I'm going to wear them to the bunny picnic this weekend."

Are you going to the bunny picnic this weekend?
