Easter Preps

The kids were up to Granma's to help with the preparations for Easter, and five dozen eggs were humiliated as they were given a new look that only a human could appreciate. One can only imagine what a self-respecting hen would think if she understood what had happened to her potential chicks.

Every year the short ones do better waiting for the transfer of color. And every year more unigue designs are revealed than the previous your. A lot of work and patience, however, paid off when after more than two hours all five dozen eggs had been morphed into beautifully colored icons that Faberge, and Czar Alexander III, would be jealous of.
What a fun time we had, preparing for Easter. Now we just hope all the eggs were cook. Bert reportedly put one raw egg into the mix to keep everyone alert. Hopefully we'll remember this in the week or two to come, and won't be surprised when a runny yoke comes pouring out onto our lap. Yuk!

    Sorry we left you to find all the eggs this morning. I guess it just leaves us with extra excitement for next year's hunt! We love you!
