Easter Egg Time!

I think that the dye that we use to have when we were kids was SO much better than the lame dye that is sold today. I bought a ton of different packages last year on clearance for $.25 each, so we had a lot of fun decorations to use on our eggs. We had roller pain, glitter, tye-dye, stickers, and embellishments for our eggs. I put 6 colors with vinegar, and 6 colors with lemo juice to try to brighten up the colors. I find just using water the colors don't turn well and the tablets never fully dissolve. The vinegar seems the best, but I still miss those Easter Bunny dye kits we had in the 80's. I searched the internet high and low, and could not find them.


Regardless, we had a blast with all of our different things to use, and Adam loved the roller brush. Hallie tried it and promptly dropped the roller brush on the floor, instead of on the newspaper covered table, so we had her switch to a different station, which did not go over well. She is in the phase where whatever Adam does, she wants to do. So we had Adam do a egg with the tye dye and sure enough Hallie switched to that, and all was well in egg dying land once more :) Matt made me a very special egg, he spent a lot of time making it perfect, and in my opinion, it's the best egg ever made.
