Easter Eggs

Dying Easter eggs is one of my favorite Easter traditions. Every year, my mom boiled a dozen eggs, and my brothers and I each got four to decorate how we chose. There was always a football egg, a Sheldon egg (from Garfield and Friends), a world egg, and an egg that was marinated in the dye until it was a deep, rich, metallic color.

This year my kids were very excited to dye eggs -- and we had a lot of fun!

I love how this page turned out. The photos started out pretty good due to some nice natural light. I managed to squeeze all my favorite pictures on, without a template and without blocking (my fallback non-template method).
