Three Dozen Eggs

Yes, that is how many eggs we colored this year!  It's a win-win:  Madeline loves coloring eggs, and I love the hard boiled egg whites!  So after two hours, yes, you read that correctly, TWO hours, our 36 eggs were dyed to perfect beautifulness!  It was a wonderful day for it...warm, sunny, and low key family time.



 Miss Amelia was snoozing while we enjoyed our egg coloring experience.  We have a feeling that once she joins the egg coloring process, it will become a much less dainty affair.  Madeline was extremely gentle and deliberate with her eggs.

 It takes so little to awe her.  She was absolutely stoked that we had bright colors and pastel colors.  Everytime we pulled an egg from the dye, she made the "ahhh, it's beautiful" face!  So sweet and naive.  Love it.

 Mommy's favorite egg even though it's a wanky paw & Tennessee orange:

 And, then, our dear, sweet Madeline discovered the stickers from the Paas kit.  Coloring eggs mission aborted.  Sticker mania took over.  However, Eric and I finished the eggs.

 The final product and proud Madeline:

What a fun afternoon with our sweet girl!
