Egg Coloring

There are some traditions which I think should be done more than just once a year, coloring eggs is one of them. All of us had so much fun doing them this year. The 15 eggs that we had was not enough. Today after school, we are going to go across the street in the empty field and have an egg throwing contest with all of the eggs that are left. I think that these are the times, when my kids are grown and gone, that I will miss the most. It is just so much fun creating memories with them. Macie loved trying to combine the colors to see what the egg would like after 2-3 colors. She also colored on the eggs with a crayon to make some designs. She had an egg with the letter M, an egg for dad that said I love you and a multi colored egg.

Addie really enjoyed this this year. She could not get enough of it. She liked dipping the eggs in the pink and blue colors to make them purple, her favorite color. She had eggs with the letter A, some coloring, and a multi colored one that she asked me to make for her.

Geoff even got in on the action. I think that this is the first year that he has been home while we have done this. The past 4 years our neighbor Suzy and I would do it with the kids while the hubby's were at school. He made me one that said Happy Anniversary because our anniversary was the next day.
