Dyeing Easter Eggs

Saturday night before Easter, after returning from our marathon day of running, Deseret book, t-ball, the tulip festival, and even shopping at the Woodburn outlets, we knew we still needed to dye the eggs!  We got home late and ate dinner (thanks Jake!), so it was about 9:30 p.m. by the time we started the eggs.  We put the two little ones to bed, but the other three stayed up and dyed some eggs.  Stacey had directions for egg dye using food coloring, so we tried that out instead of a store- bought package and it seemed to work good.  The kids had so much fun, and the adults had fun doing one or two themselves too.
