We FINALLY dyed Easter Eggs today! It's either been too cold to do it or we've been busy, but today was actually the perfect day to color some eggs. Olivia had a soccer game in the morning, so that afternoon they changed into grubby clothes and we set outside and they worked on their eggs. They each had 18 eggs to color and they are very different in how they go about it. Olivia is pretty quick and has several eggs in different colors at the same time. Sofia is slow and very methodical about what color each one has to be and makes sure that they are each the right shade before she removes them and lets them dry. So, Olivia was done awhile before Sofia. They both had a great time and of course, Sofia made up stories while they worked. They were done in about an hour and we put them all together in a bowl so we could enjoy them for Easter. Such a fun tradition and I love that the girls both enjoying dying eggs each year!
