The Tragic Egg Dying Party



We did have to pull out the Baby Einstein to keep her happy.








Grace and Lyla came over last week to dye Easter eggs. Each girl got two and a half dozen eggs to dye and they loved every minute of it. Elye watched from her high chair the whole time. It is amazing how attached they become to their eggs after spending all that time creating them. They played bird with them upstairs when they were done.
The tragedy came when Grace was carrying her and Lyla's eggs down the stairs. The basket tipped and their eggs went tumbling down the stairs. It broke most of the eggs and her heart. She cried and cried and cried. I thought we were going to have to go buy more eggs and have another egg dying party, but she somehow got past it and moved on. Even with the tragic ending it was a fun afternoon.

And Phillip thought I was wasting eggs! (We only dyed 4 a piece) And, we've already broken four a piece!
