Easter Egg Hunting







Dying Easter eggs turned out great. The only thing stained were Lucas' hands and we both had a lot of fun. I used straight vinegar and food dye because I forgot the directions say to dilute it. We used crayons to draw on the eggs but once we put them in the vinegar some chemical reaction removed the wax. Lucas' fingers ended up a Shrek-green color and so did most of the eggs. Lucas loves candy and was shocked to wake up Easter morning and find candy waiting for him on the table. He kept saying "oooh, oooh, oooh," like he was getting away with something. Easter egg hunting went well too. Adam had to show him what to look for but after that he was very good at it. He got a kick out of throwing them into his basket. He broke most of the shells atleast a little. Mom had to re-hide the not too badly cracked eggs. He really likes egg salad sandwiches so it didn't take too long to eat them.
