Saturday afternoon we dyed eggs so that they could be hid the next morning after church. It took us a little bit of time as we had an egg mishap the first time we boiled the eggs. Aunt M was teaching M the proper way to boil eggs and so preceded to tell her that after rinsing them in cold water, you need to shake the pan to crack the eggs so they are even easier to peel. M wasn't quite quick enough to stop her by saying, "But not until after we dye them!!" So we had to get more eggs to dye, but we had really good egg salad Saturday night and deviled eggs Sunday dinner so it wasn't ruined at all!
L being a goof ball!!
All ready to dye that egg blue. You have to get above the egg to really get a good view!
Focused on coloring that egg just right.
Didn't we do a pretty job with all our eggs?
Easter morning we woke to find our Easter baskets on the table.
The whole group ready to search for eggs.
Wearing your basket around your neck like a pretty necklace keeps the hands free for finding eggs. However, once the basket gets full, the eggs keep falling out when leaning over, so the verdict is probably not the best method!
What a great example of teamwork!
Finding that egg hidden in the foundation.
L had to really climb in the bushes to reach the very last egg.
Counting the eggs to make sure that all of them were found. We did have to go back out to find 3 hard-boiled eggs that were really well hidden.
