Easter Eggs!

Easter is coming and this year we decided to let the boys dye some eggs.  We knew this would be a challenging task, but sometimes you just gotta do it... ya know?! They were very excited but a little confused as to why Mom made them take their shirts off!  They put the eggs into the dye cups and were very impressed when they changed colors.  Mom and Dad had to explain we all needed to be careful with the eggs or the shells would crack.  Of course, the guys didn't take my word for it and ended up slamming the first couple of eggs down on the table to test this theory.  To their shock, Mom was right...  Conner and Ben both liked putting stickers on the eggs after they dried a bit!  By the end, we had dye all over the table, but no clothes or skin changed colors so we considered the activity a success!  The boys loved it and that's all that matters!






Conner and Ben show off their finished eggs!
