The Coloring of the Eggs

Every year I like to make a big deal about Easter festivities, one of those festivities is obviously the coloring of the eggs.  It's one of those things I really look forward to, I really prepare for and then the process takes approximately 3 minutes to complete.  My kids go with the dunk it in the dye (fingers included) let it soak for a second and move on to the next approach.  One day perhaps we will get a little more creative, but for now this seems to do the trick.  Usually we spend Good Friday with some friends of mine from work and accomplish our egg coloring task however my super duper important work friends had some stupid training (yes I'm throwing them under the bus) so we didn't get to do our annual Good Friday Party.  Can you say losers?  I decided their lack of Easter spirit wasn't going to keep me down so a little impromptu egg dyeing party was assembled last minute with another group of friends that like to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ (with coloring Easter eggs obvi).  Apparently a lot of people planned on dyeing eggs on Friday night (we are all slackers) so we decided we might as well dye them together.  So here we are.  Lots of eggs, lots of dye, lots of kids but believe it or not just a little mess.  MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.  Oh, and for those important work friends don't worry they will make an appearance in a few days at our delayed Easter celebration.  They know better than to cancel Easter plans with me altogether, there would be MAJOR consequences for that.
