The kids had so much fun coloring Easter eggs today. I have to admit, it was a pretty funny experience for Doug and I as well. This was Rachel's first year to color eggs and she was hysterical to watch. I boiled a dozen eggs giving each child 6 to color. Rachel tried really hard to drop hers in gently with the egg holder, but the first one hit the bottom of the cup with a crack. The next one she safely dropped in with her hand and that was good, because that was the pink egg. The next four she chucked (quite literally) into the remaining cups of color (we were lucky they weren't all cracked!). It was really cute to watch though as she was so excited. Noah, being the experienced egg colorer did really good and only cracked one as he tried to take it out of the cup and lay it on a paper towel. Out of 12 eggs, there were only 3 casualties which were quickly eaten up. True to their favorite colors, Rachel's eggs were more pastel, while Noah's were more the vibrant primary colors. You can see Rachel pointing out her favorite - the pink one, of course. I loved them all. =)
