Dash and Liam were very excited to dye eggs this year.

Watching the pellets dissolve in vinegar is the best part, don't you think?

Dyed hands! I was really nervous they'd be blue-handed for church but after a nice bath, only a bit a blue remained in the nails. Phew!

I wonder what their eggs will look like next year.

  1. I think we had the exact same egg dying kit! Although, we did ours while Avery was taking an evening nap. Awesome pictures Katie! I want to see Sean and your's creative eggs though!
