The Kids Were Dyeing To Try This!

On the Friday before Easter my mom and I decided to rally the troops at her house and dye Easter eggs. She was already babysitting Allie and Thad's kiddos while they were on a cruise and I brought over my crew to complete our little group. While we were mixing the colors, the children were very excited!


I have to include this picture! While I was trying to get a shot of Liz, Sam kept jumping in front of her to be in the picture - Liz's face just cracks me up!!


Here's that shot of Liz I was going for!


Finally the colors were ready and the dyeing began. Here are the kids with their creations. Liz is going through a weird posing stage for pictures.




Jared wrote his name on his Easter egg with the magic invisible crayon. Nathan and Lucas were only there as observers. Luke didn't seem too interested in what was going on but Nate was very aware that he was being excluded. He kept climbing on the table trying to get some action! Grandma gave him a plastic egg to play with but that only appeased him momentarily. Next year, Nate!


Lucas was happy to sit nearby and chow down on some Cheerios. Next year Lucas will be trying to get on the table and into the eggs, Nathan will be participating in the dyeing, and Allie's new baby will be chilling on the side eating Cheerios!
