For our last weekend in Rexburg, it has been so much fun!!! We had the Cornelius' over last night after General Conference, to do Easter eggs and watch the new greatest movie, Sherlocke Holmes!! Funny story, before we got to the dying of the Easter eggs, we had to hard boil the eggs, OF COURSE! But in my husbands family, they don't do that. They just dye regular eggs. WEIRD!!!
Chris' first attempt to hard boil eggs was a total bust. I don't think he boiled them long enough, so they weren't quite done, but of course we didn't even think about it. I accidentally dropped one of the eggs after taking it out of being dyed. OOPS! So I drop this egg on the table and this white gooieness plopped out. It was really gross actually, but funny. We finished dying the eggs and I headed to the store for some more edible eggs. :)
So today, I boiled the eggs and so good!!! We decorated some more eggs, and tried a couple new things. One thing we did with the eggs last night was drizzle rubber cement over them. This coats and seals that portion of the egg so when you go to dye it it doesn't get colored. Very cool effect!!! We also made some blown eggs this morning. Those are still a work in progress. Haven't figured out how to decorate them yet.
And for tonight we will have people over for a dinner party....Yay for Spaghetti! And of course games!!! It shall be a great night!
