A Visit to See the Swedish Easter Bunny's Model Home



So we made a trip to IKEA to have Samson's picture taken with the Easter Bunny. We bundled Samson up to brave the cold, wet weather (it was 37 degrees Fahrenheit in April!) and trekked out to Round Rock, expecting the possibility of long lines and hordes of unruly children in our path. Fortunately, we arrived at just the right time and were able to stroll straight up to the rabbit without even a minute of wait time. Unfortunately, little did we know that IKEA was simply luring clueless parents into their capitalist clutches with this offer of a free photo with the holiday mascot. The end result has got to be one of the worst Easter bunny pictures ever, clearly designed to feature IKEA merchandise over the beautiful children whose proud parents dressed them up for the occasion. Note the fabulous price tag attached to the sofa. Dag-nabbit, IKEA! I guess you get what you pay for...
