Army Bunnies

I spent entirely too much time on today's photo for my Photo a Day project. But it was fun. :-)

Michael recently dressed up his bunny, whose name is Bunny, in this little Army uniform. (Which came from another stuffed animal.) As soon as he showed it to me, I knew Bunny was destined to end up in a photo.

I thought the front steps would be a good spot - being cement and sort of a utilitarian backdrop. I began trying out some poses and found that it's not easy to pose a floppy, well-loved, stuffed animal! But Bunny looked so adorable that I decided he needed some friends. Luckily, it's pretty easy to get bunnies to multiply!

I imagine they are sitting around waiting for the transport to pick them up. That's why the bunny in front is checking out the sky and the bunnies in back are dozing. The original title was going to be "Waiting to Come Home", but I couldn't resist "Army Bunnies".
