Brian was on call this past Sunday, so we tried to get our Easter eggs dyed on Saturday, but we could not fit it in.
So after church on Sunday, the kids and I decided to dye our eggs. The first problem was I could not find the coloring kit. I know I bought a kit (I have the receipt to prove it), but I could not find it anywhere. I'm sure it's sitting in that perfect spot right now.
Fine. We decided to use regular old food dye...unfortunately, I was nearly out of every color! After some intense squeezing, we had enough to make six different colors. They turned out to be the best, most vibrant eggs we've ever made. It was fun.
Right before my camera battery died, I managed to get these few pictures.
I got this picture of Julie as I was yelling, "Don't drink it!" What an awesome picture. Dye is organic, right? :)

It's food safe as far as I know! I love coloring eggs! My only problem is that my kids don't appreciate egg-salad sandwiches the way I do.
Your kids are adorable!
I often wonder why we bother running to the store just for the sake of buying the egg dye kit when the food coloring works great. Unfortunately I am a sucker for paas and their dumb little stickers, even though we never use them. I think I will do what you did next year. Cute pictures!
I didn't know regular dye even worked. I guess these blogs do make us smarter:)
