A Colorful Easter
So this year, to save money, we decided to dye Easter eggs with good old-fashioned food color and a splash of vinegar. Thanks to a clever tip I saw on Pinterest, we integrated a clever technique. After hard-boiling all the eggs and letting them cool completely, we gently cracked the eggs all over the entire egg. Having already put several drops of food color in individual bags, we then smothered each egg in the baggie color of choice, rinsed them off with vinegar, then set them in the fridge the night before Easter. In the morning, after de-shelling the eggs, we discovered this:
So this made eating the deviled eggs fun this year!
Here's some pictures of the kiddo's earlier this morning shortly before their egg hunt in the living room. Darius found 6 gold dollar coins in his basket. He's was pretty stoked about that.
Abbie was excited to discover that the basketball was indeed intended for her and not her older brother.
Emery LOVES his cars! (and candy too...)
Naomi was caught off-guard by my photo-op, but she was super excited to see the colorful ball was hers!
(btw, she was the first to down her entire chocolate bunny)
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!
