It was an Easter miracle. No, seriously, Phil and I actually prayed to the Easter Bunny earlier that week that I would be able to get out of my obligation of working the entire weekend of Easter. On Friday morning, someone threw me a bone and like that, I was a free woman!! One of the first things I did was go out and buy a dozen eggs and an egg dyeing kit from Walmart. Right now, Avery's favorite books are the Little Critter series by Mercer Mayer. We had been reading the Easter book, "Happy Easter, Little Critter!", and Avery was very intrigued by the egg dyeing part. I was so happy to be able to have the time to enjoy this activity with my children! A special thanks to Ninny, who made these super cute aprons for the kids a while back for various art projects. No, my children are not naked underneath the aprons, but if you have ever tried to get dye stains out of your clothes, you would understand why the aprons and underwear are the uniform of choice for dyeing easter eggs. **Special Note: Please take care to note the progression of egg dyeing action photos below. Observe how the newspaper gradually gets taken away from Kayla, but she still manages to pull a fast one on us. This girl is fast.**
