Easter thus far

Tonight we decorated our hard boiled Easter eggs.

I bought the sparkly decorating kit and realized after I opened it that it was a painting kit as opposed to the traditional dying kit.

Oh well.  At least they were sparkly.

The kids had a great time anyway, and it was kinda fun to mix it up.

Yesterday we made these bird nests.

And later this week I was to try this.

 

p.s. I taught Josh what April Fools Day is today.

All day he tried to fool me.

“Mom, look behind you there’s a spider.”

“Mom, watch out a purple dinosaur is about to get you."

Over and over.

I think he finally got Darrin when he said,

“Dad, Mom dented the van at Costco today.”

Darrin fell for it.

Ha ha.

I laughed.

That is hilarious! I can't believe that he got your husband. It must have taken him all day to figure out the perfect balance between joke and believability. Happy Easter guys!

that's awesome....maybe i need to make some of those goodies! they look good!

we decorated eggs last night too. except after trying with ethan and having him drop the eggs and make a huge mess, he got booted to a strapped in high chair to watch. we're mean. but i wanted at least ONE egg that survived the dying. :)
