Making Easter Eggs

One of my favorite traditions from Easter and growing up was coloring Easter Eggs.  I loved to watch the egg take on a new color, mix colors, and make patterns on the eggs.

Tonight, we continued the tradition with the boys.  Braden remembered it from a few years ago.  He was exited to do his OWN eggs this year.  Dylon wasn’t really sure what was going on (last year we skipped – pregnant Mommy just wasn’t up for it!).  Once Dylon realized what was going on though, he was thrilled.  Next year, we are going to need to do a few more eggs.  6 eggs each was just not enough!

I promise that we do feed Dylon!  However, from the looks of this picture, you’d never know it.

Braden was excited to have a “chick” egg sticker just like the one the his bunny tells a story about.  The bunny talks and tells how traditional Easter items relate to the true meaning of Easter as it centers on Jesus’ resurrection.
