I came downstairs this morning and found my Easter basket sitting in the middle of the floor, waiting just for me! The Easter Bunny brought me a HUGE chocolate egg! He also brought some Cadbury Creme Eggs (one of my favorites), a new book about Dogs, and my very own Shaun the Sheep! There were also two pairs of shorts and a new shirt, but I thought that was boring. I think he got mixed up and put those in my basket instead of Mum's--she's the one that really cares what I wear. My favorite part was the plastic eggs. I got to play with them all day. I love to open them up, then Mummy closes them all again and I open them all again right away! I also like to hide them under the couch and in the blankets. I thought it might be nice for Mummy and Daddy to go on a lot of Easter Egg hunts today. I think I will do it again tomorrow, too!
Eggs here in Cambridge are all brown! So we didn't dye any eggs this year, but Mummy and Daddy colored on them! Mummy drew a Shaun the Sheep on one for me! She promised me that next year, when we're back in the USA, we will dye eggs. I can't wait!

Easter this year was a lot more fun than last year. Last year, all I was allowed to do was lay on the blanket and Daddy brought me an egg or two. This year--I got to hunt for my own!
The Grad Parlour at Daddy's College, Pembroke, invited us to a special Egg Hunt in college! They had hidden hundreds of Cadbury eggs all over, some huge golden eggs, and even one special Golden Bunny. I found lots of the little Eggs with Mummy and Daddy's help, but guess what?! I was the lucky one and found the Golden Bunny first! I was especially excited about him. I found him in one of the hedges by the bowling green. After I found him, I checked every part of the hedge just to make sure there weren't any more bunnies. There weren't any--I found the only one!
Everyone was really nice to me, I think because I was the only one under 21 years old. All the girls told me I was really cute and gave me some of the eggs. What can I say--it pays to be unbelievably handsome.

All of us took our loot back to the Grad Parlour and compared. I definitely got the coolest prize with the Bunny, but some of the other people found a lot more eggs than I did. That's ok! We also had Hot Cross Buns, a traditional treat for Easter here in England. Some of the Grads toasted and buttered them for us. So delicious. I think we had better have Hot Cross Buns every Easter from now on.

Way to go, Henry!!! Laughed out loud when you realized "What can I say--it pays to be unbelievably handsome."
