Tonight we colored Easter eggs with the kids. I spent Tuesday morning blowing the yokes out of 2 dozen eggs and then let them dry until tonight. Isaac and Grace have been so excited to "paint" eggs. They have been asking me repeatedly since we bought the dye kit, over the weekend, when we would get to do it! It was even more difficult after the eggs were ready yesterday, but I wanted to wait until Francis could be here to watch and help! One of the things that surprised the Isaac couldn't remember how we colored them last year... but he jumped right in when we started tonight. Grace was a little too excited and splashed quite a bit of the dye out of the containers before she settled down. They each had fun deciding what colors they wanted, if they wanted a picture drawn on it, or if they wanted to use the "shrink wrap" papers. Decorating eggs has always been one of my favorite traditions and it is so much fun to be able to share it now with my kids! :)
