Easter Egg Coloring - Speechless Sundays
I was informed earlier this week by my oldest that it is our family custom to dye Easter eggs on Easter Sunday and not before. Who knew? So, now it's a tradition, and what a great time was had by all, pink fingers and everything.
Happy Easter Christine, Great picture. I remember those day. I had seven children and boy. could they make a mess.
Christine, such a great photo! I used to remember going to Easter Sunday service with egg dye on my fingers. No matter how hard I tried to wash it all off from the night before coloring eggs, I couldn't get rid of it.
Happy Easter Christine! I love this photo! We have children at two ends of the spectrum, teens and toddlers. The teens aren't into egg coloring anymore...the toddler can't quite do it and doesn't understand. I love your story and can't wait to be back in egg coloring ages at home!
Christine - Happy Easter! There are four hands just like that in my household.
Christine, good that you are spending time with your kids. Looks like it was a fun time.
Great picture, Christine! Your son looks like he is having a good time! Happy Easter!
Christine, great photo. I hope you also enjoyed getting your fingers pink, just like your happy looking son. I hope you had wonderful Easter with your family.
How strange, our household has the same problem with colorful little hands - lol
Soooo funny!!! I colored eggs too with my son, and put them in the fridge... Well, the vineger was old and the eggs didn't dry, so they were still wet on Easter Monrning when the Easter Bunny hid them!!!
Christine, gotta love those customs. Anything done consistenly like that is sure to carry great memories through the years!
Christine, you have amazingly adorable kids! This little guy looks like he's really having fun.
Christine, I miss having young kids around the house especially at Easter! Dying Easter eggs were always so fun, and can be so creative!
Christine,
Ah yes, I remember those days. Nicely done. Hope everything turned out well. :)
