Dead Racoons and chocolate bunnies

The day started out with an Easter egg hunt in the back yard where Bella while digging behind the oak found a dead raccoon in the grass. She was frozen to the side of the barn. Every spring and summer we feed the raccoons peanut butter and watch the babies grow into fat, furry mommas and papas. They never bother us except they tend to use the kids toys if they are left in the backyard…i.e. they have a swim party at 2 am or try to go down the slide three a time.
