Dyeing Easter Eggs

This year Easter time was full of beautiful warm weather.  So the day before Easter, we took the kids outside in the backyard to dye Easter Eggs.  We found an idea to put the egg in the middle of a whisk and dye the egg that way.  It helped keep fingers free from the colored dye.  Paul was absolutely thrilled that this would make less of a mess..haha.  I was skeptical, but the kids loved it and thought it was the coolest thing ever..haha.

The dyeing cups that we used weren’t very stable so one by one the kids would knock over one of the colors until all of them were spilled.  But we got most of the eggs dyed by then.  Here is 3 colors left…

Here is cute little Porter and Kaden with the eggs that they dyed and the faces that they put on them.  They were both so proud of their eggs.

After dyeing the Easter eggs, the boys had fun running around and playing in our backyard.   Love these little boys.

Kaden insisted that he run around in his underwear.  He just would not put his pants on..haha, silly boy!!  I thought these pictures were adorable of little Kaden.

Brynn misses out on stuff like this all the time too! I love that you got a picture of Owen sleeping peacefully. He's such a cutie! I had to laugh that all the cups spilled over. So fun! :) The eggs turned out awesome. We had that same kit last year. And I didn't know Kaden is potty trained! That is awesome! I'm dreading training Brady, but one thing for sure is that they look so adorable in their little underwear. I love that you took pictures. All of your boys are so cute and handsome!
