Dying Easter Eggs

Today we had lots of stuff planned but couldnt do any of it! This weather has been horrible!!! Its been down pouring for three days straight with severe thunder storms off and on. The worst was Friday...we were under a tornado warning and had a huge wall cloud that we could see from the window of our house. A few tornados breifly touched down close to us....the closest being right near the airport (which is only 10 minutes away). Shortly after the storm arrived it veared up north a little bit and hit Walton Blvd in Bentonville instead of us. We didnt even get rain from it.

We were suppose to go to an Egg Drop today at 10am. This is where they dropped 30,000 eggs from a helicopter for the kids to hunt. They had the Easter Bunny there to take pictures and other some other activities. I thought Kevin would really enjoy seeing the eggs come out of the helicopter....but of course because of the rain all festivities were cancelled :( Instead we hung around the house and went to Walmart to shop for Easter dinner.

Later we dyed Easter eggs. The kids really had lots of fun dying eggs together this year. The whole process was done in about 15 minutes and they did a really good job. Kevin had lots of colorful eggs and Kira's were all green. She really liked the green dye :)

After dinner it was bath time and bed.....to get ready for the Easter Bunny's visit. I forgot to put carrots out again this year....ooops! Glad no one noticed.
