We're Dye-ing

We did our easter FHE tonight, instead of last night...
we did our annual 'Easter in Eggs' story. It was awesome this year because Max understood what I was doing, and it was fun to sort of explain to him what happened to Jesus and see his reaction, and his understanding. Anyways, then we dyed Easter eggs for our activity, which of course is always fun. BUT I saw this new trick, somewhere...I wish I could remember where I saw it...sorry! But they put their hard-boiled eggs in a whisk for their kids to dye with...so we did it!
it.was.awesome.
no messy fingers, no crazy stains. whoever thought of that trick is a genius!
poor ives was completely left out...sad.
but we WILL be cracking an egg on her head when Easter rolls around next Sunday!
If you haven't dyed Easter eggs yet, try the whisk...it was awesome!
and if you want to copy the Easter in Eggs thing (probably everyone already has it...but this is what mine looks like, and it's a really neat idea...you can borrow mine and copy!)

I really want to do one of those... my mom has one similar and since we always went to her house I didn't need one. Alas no more. I can't remember everything in the inside. Can you send a picture with a short descrip?
PS your check is in the mail it took me FOREVER to remember to get stamps... sorry!
