Easter eggs and cupcakes

Today was the first day of Spring Break!  We started it off by going to Grandma's house for the annual easter-egg-dying party.

Mark's mom is brave.  There were 14 kids and a lot of bowls containing colored egg dye.  Luckily there were no major spills.  Just a lot of kids having fun.
With cousins.





And after the eggs had all been colored, she pulled out the cupcakes to decorate.  The favorite toppings were the brown and pink whoppers.  They looked like eggs.  The kids piled as many as they could get on their cupcakes.
In fact, Megan had use her hands to hold them all on.

But they sure were good!



And it sure was FUN!  Thanks Grandma!  It was a great way to start spring break!
