Easter Eggs!

Dawson and I had fun coloring Easter eggs on Thursday. Jackson was not at all interested, which I was thankful for later. He came over and tried to pick up one of the plastic straws from the dye kit and splatter blue dye all over the table and himself. He has a nice blue patch in his hair that is finally coming out after three washes! I made deviled eggs with the hard-boiled eggs that were cracked. I hate eggs so I never make them- this was their first taste of "doubled eggs" and they both ate them! Dawson even went back for seconds. They must take after their dad in that way!
Dawson is showing off his "earth" egg. He shows it to everyone that enters our house and seems very proud of it. We were not trying to make the earth, but it ended up looking better than we could have done if we tried!
At breakfast this morning I offered to make scrambled eggs and Dawson asked if we could have "Easter eggs"! We made green eggs for St. Patty's Day so I guess he thought it was appropriate that we color the eggs for Easter too!
This morning our church sponsored an "Easter Egg Drop" where they dropped eggs out of an airplane into a field. The kids enjoyed it even though it was freezing outside! Sorry no pictures to share, I forgot the camera! It was a great time of fun and fellowship!
