Happy Easter

Time to dye Easter eggs.  Ellie has been begging me for the past two weeks to dye Easter eggs (Note to self: in the future, do not purchase egg dye when children are with me and hide egg dying paraphernalia as soon as I get home).  On Easter eve I finally had all the eggs boiled and ready to go, so we got to work.  The kids were super excited to try out all the different colors and to write on the eggs pre-dye with the white crayon.  However, it seems like 13 eggs take approximately 4 minutes to dye.  It probably was a bit longer than 4 minutes, but next year I'll definitely have to boil more eggs.  The problem then becomes what to do with all those dyed hard-boiled eggs.


A few of the finished product.  Don't they just look so springy.
A quick family portrait after church.  We're always running late and never have enough time before church to get a picture taken (which is why Max is wearing lovely crocs on Easter Sunday), and then we usually have crabby kids after church, but this year's picture is not too bad.

Great family pics! And when Drew was 2 he wore his crocs to church pretty much every week.
