Easter Eggs

We dyed Easter eggs a couple days before Easter. We were going to do it right after school, but they all wanted to wait until Dave came home from work so he could be there too. They're so thoughtful.

They each got to do 5 eggs, and they took it very seriously.
 
 
 Well, not too seriously. There were some silly-faced eggs!

 Cool sunrise, Dallin!

 
Their fingers were as colorful as their eggs.
 
 Levi kept asking when we were going to "kill" the eggs. Dye/die - it's very confusing.
 


Brennan still talks about the time we dyed eggs with his cousin Anna. Wasn't that, like, three years ago? It's amazing was kids remember.
 
 
Of course they wanted to do more than their allotted 5, but we had to work hard to eat them up in a reasonable amount of time. I deviled (is that a word?) the last few to speed things up.

Your kids are all getting so big- I barely recognize Levi! Fun colors!

That's very brave to not put tons of newspaper down. Of course, I'd be hard pressed to find newspaper these days. The eggs all look beautiful, and I think deviled (sp?) eggs are a must for eating them all up!
