We really had to quickly squeeze this in to a busy Saturday schedule. The boys came home from helping grandma get her house ready for a showing and were taking off a half hour later to a Louisville Bats baseball game. So, we quickly dyed the eggs. This year I hard boiled three dozen because they usually fight about how many they get to color and I wanted there to be plenty. It was another moment when I realized that Trevor was getting older and didn't really want to do it (as much as he used to) and that Boston hurried through. The upcoming game may have been the reason, but as quickly as they finished the ones they wanted to dye, they were gone in a flash. I was left with my two trusty helpers Gage and Mallory. I finished up a few more with the youngens and then they took off. So, I sat at the table decorating the rest by myself. I will admit that I was patient and let those babies get nice and bright in the dyes. They were beautiful, in my opinion. But, I wish the older boys would have been there to help. At least we now have a few dozen eggs to make plenty of egg salad sandwiches this week!

At least you dyed eggs this year! I kind of skipped that part! But my kids had already done enough in my opinion. Between school and grandmas house we had plenty of dyed eggs!
We didn't dye eggs this year. I finally found white eggs Saturday, but when I boiled them they ALL cracked. Apparently white Spanish eggs are not as resilient as the American version -must be why brown dominate.
boston, I did most of the
