Dying Eggs

I broke down this year and actually let the kids dye Easter eggs. I know, living on the edge, right? There was of course a lot of supervision, but they still had fun doing them.
Luckily there were stickers to put on after the eggs dried so the kids were a little more hads on with that part.


Poor Kylee just got locked in her booster seat. She's still a little too menace-y to participate in messy projects.


On Saturday we took the eggs and had an "egg roll". We stole this fun tradition from a family in our ward. Basically you sit across from someone else and roll hardboiled eggs together. Which ever one doesn't crack is the winner. We had a bracket and had a little egg roll tourney. Brynlee was the grand champion. Then we made egg salad and had some sandwiches. Jeremy thought it was a lame activity, but the kids had a good time. And what else are we supposed to do with hardboiled eggs? Knowing our luck if we hid them outside we'd lose them and end up having a sticky mess later in the summer.
