Coloring Easter Eggs

Last night, we colored Easter Eggs! We boiled 4 dozen, although only a little over 2 dozen are not totally cracked (most of the rest have hairline fractures). I guess that's what I get for letting the kids help me crack eggs when we bake!! But, the kids had fun and that's all that matters! They were having trouble balancing the eggs on the wires that come with the kits, so they just used their hands. By the end, both were covered in egg dye. I guess Dani thought the dye looked like koolaid, because at one point she took a drink and got a big surprise! Luckily, the dye is non-toxic.












Billy was so excited when he dyed the egg with his name on it!!
