Easter photos

Elias won a 3D Easter Egg Dye Set last year, so the kids are testing out the glasses to look at their egg wrappers. I can't even remember where he one the dye set!

We got eggs from our friend who had boiled too many eggs for her daughter's birthday party the day before to dye them, so we had over two dozen to dye. It made it a lot of fun to have so many. I got the idea to do the face with the broken head on the left. Then Josh and Elias made the faces to the right of mine. Elias' to the far right says, "Don't eat me!" on the side. He thought of it himself. I thought that was pretty clever.

Another one of Josh's faces. Josh cheated and drew his faces with a sharpie.

After we were done coloring eggs, Bella asked if she could use the dye to color her hair. I surprised her by saying, "Sure, we can try it!" Elias thought we had lost our minds a little to allow her to do it.

This picture doesn't really show what it really looked like. It actually was a pretty pink. It is now almost all washed out, but it made her happy to have it for a short time.

We hardly ever dress up for church, but I really do enjoy a good reason to dress up now and then. I had found Bella's beautiful dress at a recent consignment sale for $10!

Bella kept making crazy faces or blinking, so it was very hard to get a good picture. She was in a great mood, we just snapped the picture at the wrong time! Josh got this one by counting to 3, but snapping the picture on 2!

My handsome men!
