Easter Eggs

What to do on a Sunday evening when two boys are craving their daddy's time and attention? Well, the first idea was to fly a kite; but lack of sufficient wind soon brought that activity to an end. Next on the agenda: decorate Easter eggs!

This was much more successful, and gave the boys a pleasant, creative evening.

~ Daddy demonstrates how to do it
~ writing on the eggs with an old candle stub before dipping them in the color was a fun way to personalize the eggs

~ Daddy's fancy glitter egg

~ the completed project (minus one that broke when Jeff was trying to blow the raw egg out of it...Jeff's glittery egg was done this way; since it's hollow, we can keep it...but the rest are hard-boiled and will be eaten--but not before pictures were taken to preserve the memory!)
