We colored Easter eggs as a family today -- Love doing that. The kids always get soooo excited about it. Noah and Rachel had been asking all week and couldn 't wait to get started. It was Kate's first year to help and she was more than happy to do her part. I boiled up 48 eggs - we had 3 break while boiling. Rachel helped me mix up the color tablets and then we set to work. The kids got to color as many as they wanted and we gave Kate four to keep her busy. She kept dunking her same four eggs the whole time. She was funny because she would hold her eggs about six inches above the cups and drop them in... Needless to say, hers were pretty banged up and looked like little dinosaur eggs. Noah was funny about his eggs wanting them to be deeply colored and so would leave them in the dye for a long time. Rachel just enjoyed coloring hers as she pleased. My favorite of hers was the deep red one she made. So cool. Daddy did his yearly peace sign shaped like the Mercedes sign... He seems to do that one every year. :) It was a very fun afternoon and we ended up with lots of gorgeous and brightly colored Easter eggs. For more pictures visit the album here.
