Dyeing Easter Eggs

 Oh the excitement of dyeing Easter eggs! I think our Easter will have to be Saturday instead of Sunday due to sunrise service and family Easter and cooking all the bread and making dips ect on actual Easter but that is bonus for the kids. One less day to wait! So we decided to dye eggs tonight  : )
 We got two different kits this year. A marble kit and a candy apple kit. I didn't make all the colors for the marble because there were 12 and with using 2 I didn't think we needed that many.
 The candy apple was a hit and had the little kids not mixed up the colors to an ugly brown I think that is all they would have used. It leaves the eggs nice and shiny too!
 I only have one whisk but was going to have Rylin use that and you can see how excited she was about it....she ended up using her fingers and the spoons : )
 The each got to do 5 eggs ( I don't want to be eating egg salad for a month!) ; )

 It is so fun to watch them be creative!

 I had Joe take a picture of me with the kids since I always am the on behind the camera : )
 Joe just had to color one too! lol go figure my 4th child! ; )
 A little messy....
 Camo egg!



 Addie was the last one at the table so had it all to herself. She made some really pretty eggs!

All the finished eggs : ) Note that they have the child's initial and their eggs are in that row. Plus Addies last one that was drying waaay back there. I can't wait for the Easter bunny to come and the egg hunts. So much fun!
