dyeing and hunting

6 kids + 3 dozen eggs + 10 mugs of water, vinegar and food coloring = a whole lot of fun and some of the coolest eggs ever made. Seriously. I couldn't stop taking pictures of them, they were so cool. Each one was like a tiny amazing work of art- with so much depth of color and texture. The secret to these spectacular speckled creations? It's a combination of 2 parents who haven't dyed eggs in several years, 1 who forgot the egg dyeing kit at home, and some Wilton's Icing Colors that just would not dissolve all the way. Throw in a little last minute cooking of the eggs at 8 pm and you've got the makings for some serious Late Night Arts and Crafts/Science Experiment Egg Dyeing. This is Extreme Homeschooling, folks. We wrapped Home-Ec, Science, Art, and Math into one fun-filled event. And the results were truly breathtaking.













Then on Sunday, we joined our friends again to hunt the eggs- what fun! A really great time was had by all. Thank you so much to Jason, India, and Kalib for welcoming us into your family's Easter festivities- we had a blast!
