Easter Eggs

We dyed Easter Eggs the other night. That is so fun. Jeff said that in his family it was something they did the night before. I don't remember if we did it then or sooner, but we decided that in the future we'll do the night before too. It seems like a fun tradition.

At our cell group last night our leader had a cool thing he included the kids in - he handed out Easter Eggs to each of them and as he went through the Easter story (at their level) he had them open their eggs one at a time in order (they were numbered). Each child found something inside the represented the next part of the story. For example, there were silver coins for the part in the story when Judas was bribed, a mini crown of thorns in another, a cross in one, and the last one was empty to represent that Jesus' body was gone. It was such a neat demonstration, I've never seen it done like that.

Anyway, here are a few pics from Easter Egg dying.
