An Egg-citing Easter



 
 
 
 

We dyed Easter eggs earlier this week.  Chloe loved every minute of the new craft that Mama had planned.  I let Yates play with the freshly boiled eggs, but was a little afraid of what he would do with the dye.  The last time I let him color he tried to eat the crayon... just keeping it real.  Chloe acted like an expert though, and seemed to know exactly what to do.  I warned her ahead of time that it would splash when she placed the egg in the cup - and Heavens to Betsy - we didn't want to make a mess.  She did such a good job and even asked for a napkin when a little spilled. So maybe I've made her a bit of a neat-freak... oops.  Point is, we didn't go fancy, we didn't go overboard... just made a few memories dying Easter eggs for the first time as a family - and we will certainly enjoy them as table decorations when we eat our Easter lunch.

No how-to-Pinterest-inspired eggs here... just your ready-made store bought egg dye cups.  And we had just as much fun.  Maybe next year Martha Stewart.


Hope you have an egg-citing Easter!
