Coloring Eggs

We went over to Brett's parents to color eggs and have some fun. I had Gwen wear the purple sweater that Kami crocheted for her. It is soooo cute.

Melodie helped me alot with Gwen to color the eggs and get everything set up.

everything needs to be blue


Luckily Gwen got into the whole thing once she saw the cups with the colors in them and found that the eggs transformed into colored ones. Of course she wanted all of them in the blue cup.

As you can see Brett just sat and watched! I don't blame him as we were both sooooo tired from only getting 3 hours of sleep that night. Gwen is having bad dreams and it is not helping in the sleep department.

The aftermath.....always such a mess.

the prep


Then as the eggs were drying the girls were napping and Kami & Melodie made chocolate covered rice krispies. Have you seen the commercial? This egg Melodie did and she of course covered the whole thing in chocolate.....my kind of girl!

Then we all had to eat one. Kami, as a joke, put some on Penelope's face! They sure were yummy.

Then the eggs were dry and ready to put stickers on. Gwen could not wait for this part. I got her Toy Story stickers and she had fun putting them on.

Brett even helped out.
