Easter Eggs!

We have made it a tradition to dye eggs on Good Friday after church. Usually Aunt Stephanie helps out but she was busy this year. I told the kids to save me an egg and this is what I did with it! I used contact paper and the Big Shot. Kind of a pain peeling off the back of the contact paper! After I dyed the egg in the purple, I peeled off the letters and the dye made some of the sticky stick to the egg which I covered with glitter! It was a sparkly fix! Anyway, I spent most of the day cleaning up spills from Emily. I was also reminded that next year the baby Jesse will be able to "help" dye eggs. That makes a total of 10 hands covered in dye!
