Easter Fun

While at Madison's house, Collin dyed eggs for the first time. Instead of wearing his PJs, he wore a shirt that Madison gave him to wear. He cracked a few of the eggs as he dropped them into the dye but not enough to have to discard the egg. He was the most efficient egg dyer I ever had seen too because he put as many as he could at one time in each bowl in front of him. We found out that four eggs will fit snugly but he want to try to include more. Once he dyed all dozen of his eggs, he began to put them back in the dye to color them again. I took them out so they could dry and he then could put stickers on them. He started to put stickers on the eggs but then decided that it would be more fun to put them all over him. After putting every sticker on his body, he took them back off one by one. Here are a few pictures of him dying the eggs.

In the morning, he got to see what the Easter bunny brought him. He pulled out of his Easter bucket (sand bucket....Easter Bunny was practical this year) some cars, a Nike baseball cap, a Recorder because the Bunny could not find a kazoo, spider man toys for the pool and some candy. After Madison and Justin finished looking through their basket, it was time to hunt for the eggs that Easter Bunny hid the night before. Collin did great. He found 12 of the 51 eggs that were hidden. He WAS the most entertaining finding his eggs because, he dropped the eggs into his bucket instead of laying each one in there. We could hear each real egg crack or break as he dropped each one in. Thank goodness that they were hard boiled. Daddy thought it would have been funny to hide some real ones. He better not try that at home. After all of the eggs were found, it was time to get on the road and head back home. What a great weekend spent with friends.
