Whew! Thanks for all your great comments about our fun get-together with Sharon! Holy Cow, that woman wears me out — she’s been running all over Indianapolis and she’s even found me a grill hanging off the side of a building to replace the one that fell over a few months ago, LOL. After all the Saturday excitement, I was so tired I slept late on Sunday. I would have slept longer, but my whining bunnies woke me up. I’ve been working on a new batch for a few weeks now. Christmas is just around the corner, and you never know when someone will drop by and you’ll need an impromtu little Bunny Gift. You know, the boss drops by, so you have to say, “Here Mr. Supervisor, have a Bunny.” Anyway, the bunnies were anxious for me to get them all done so they could go out and play. They all waited patiently while I finished up the make-up on the last little Mary Bunny.
They all had big plans to go out and play in the leaves but TheEmptyNestChild happened to mention to them that it was all drizzly outside. They gathered in front of the window and wistfully looked out, dreaming of what could have been. There was a little murmuring among the bunnies when they noticed that some naughty pranksters had smashed the neighbors pumpkins in our front yard. I think they decided that the big wide world might not be safe for little bunnies.
Since the bunnies had to stay inside, they decided to play their favorite Peter Rabbit games. (You were expecting anything else?) Draghts and Ludo. Or here at our house, Checkers and Trouble.
Then they started wrestling and piling on top of each other — Brown Bunny got the worst of it. Mama Bunny kept a watchful eye.
When it was all over, Mama Bunny had them all pose for a family portrait. As you can see, she has her hands full with several sets of twins. It’s pretty hard to get them all to stay still and sit up straight. And Brown Bunny was still sulking and refused to turn around.
So, we had a good day — all the bunnies together and playing games. With the holidays approaching, they know they’ll soon be on their way to new homes. Mama Bunny can’t keep them all around — too many mouths to feed!
Hope your week is off to a good start — thanks for stopping by!
XOXO,
Anna
P.S. Did you notice the updated Holly Button over there in the sidebar? The fabulous Hollycakes has been at it again — she’s written an article all about blogging for the upcoming February issue of McCall’s Quilting magazine — due on the newsstands any day now. I’m very honored and excited that she’s included Thimbleanna in her article! Thanks Holly! You can read all about it here.
No Bunny Giveaway? I didn’t win last time and I’m still experiencing some bunny envy….
What adorable bunnies!
These bunnies are tooo cute! Lovely fabrics and they really look so sad sitting behind the window watching the rain!
There you go again – teasing and tantalizing me with those adorable bunnies. This Wabbit should have one but ………. Sigh! :-)
They are adorable!
OMG those are the cutest bunnies…they look so pitiful looking out the window. They just make me smile!
Those bunnies look like a handful!! Glad to see they’re keeping you on your toes! They’re gorgeous.

So many bunnies! My bunny says “Hi”. He’s not lonesome because he has all those chickens to play with. Or is it SHE?
The bunnies are adorable!
Hey i love those bunnies. wink, wink. What a funny post. Must be that honking big camera you have that takes those great photos. I didn’t mean to wear you out. LOL But I did wear myself out I think. It’s time for me to head back to Ca. Talk to ya from there next time.
It is so terribly difficult to keep one bunny entertainment in yucky weather. I just can’t imagine what it must have been like to keep all those bunnies entertained. At least they have each other.
What a fun post! Love those bunnies.
Congratulations on you ‘honorable mention’ too!!
What a cute family!
How cute, Joni and I should bring our bunnies over. They could say they are long lost cousins. My red bunny is getting pretty faded, I love her! (Gurney made her, thanks again………xoxo:)
Ok Mrs Funny Bunny-Thimbleanna – that was a good post! The bunnies look lovely but I can’t believe you plan to stick pins in their tummies. Poor little darlings! Lucy x
Oh my, I just love your bevy of bunnies! :)
Adorable! What a great idea to whip up a big batch of crafty & just hand it out one-by-one for christmas. That might be just the ticket to the gift-making. Thanks!
who needs kids when you have bunnies. sounds like they are very mischievious!! almost like my puppy.
Are they the pretend grandchildren?
love the photo of them looking out the window.
What a HOOT, Anna! I love these bunnies!
Congratulations on the acknowledgment. I’ll be sure to read the article! XO
OMG — if cute were deadly, we’d all be in big trouble with those bunnies. They are adorable and I loved reading about their adventures. I hope they know how to stay safe around theemptynestchild! (they look like something Max the weiner dog would love to pounce on!)
Oh no… I just saw on your clock it is 1:06am!!! I need to go to bed, but just wanted to say, “great bunnies”! Love those!
Love those bunnies! They are adorable! Hope they won’t cause you to much trouble! Fun post!
Holy Cow Anna I dang near choked on my toast reading the little story and your pictures of the bunnies in action, I’m still bustin a laugh. The ticking in your brain must never sleep, LOL. Thanks for a great chuckle.
Hugs – Karen
Oh what cute bunnies!! Love them!!
oh still catching up here, should have scrolled past the lasagna, LOL! The bunnies are so fun!! love how they play.
Great bunnies!
This has got to be one of your best posts, Anna! You are such a clever lady – no wonder Holly put you on her list of fave bloggy sites. Congratulations, by the way!
I bet the bunnies had a very good night’s sleep after playing hard all day, didn’t they? I hope Brown Bunny got over his/her(?) funk! They are all adorable!
You and your bunnys crack me up – hilariously cute. It looks so lovely and green where you live!
What a great photo of the bunnies looking out the window! LOL! Incredibly cute!
Brilliant idea for those bunnys ! How horrid are the people who smashed up your neighbours pumpkins. I would have been so cross. Much better that bunny’s said in and played board games ~ love Julia x
They are so cute – I think one of them would like to go to Denmark.
Love Kate
