Papa's Eggsellent Birthday Party!



Every year, the friday night before Easter all the grandchildren gather to color eggs at Grandpa's house. This year the event happen to land the day after papa's 59th brithday -- so it made for a "eggsellent" birthday celebration. Papa and the kids dyed one hundred and twenty eggs in what seemed like minutes. Purples, blues, pinks and greens were splashed everywhere -- the table, clothes, hair and faces. They all love the chance to get down and dirty. This is always a favorite tradition each year, one that sticks with them for as long as the stain lasts on their hands (oh, and this everlasting hand-color seconds as fashionale gloves to go with their pretty Easter dresses.) Happy Birthday, Grandpa and Happy Almost Easter, everyone!
