Easter Eggs

We colored Easter Eggs Saturday night. We had two different kinds of dye. One was a new Q-tip dye that was advertised to be mess-free and easy to clean up with soap and water. Jase enjoyed using these and painted beautiful designs on his eggs.

We also had some of the old-fashioned egg dye and just like last year...the entire hand went in the cup with in seconds of putting it in front of him

Which resulted in...

And I believe we have a strong case of false advertisement. When we attempted to clean him up, the old-fashioned dye washed right off, but the Q-tip dye wouldn't come off for the life of us.

We scrubbed his hands with soap and water...that didn't work.

We used baby wipes...that didn't work.

We used those lemon scented handi wipes...that didn't work.

We used finger nail polish remover...and that didn't work!

I thought for sure he would go to church Easter Sunday dubbing his handsome Easter suit and Incredible Hulk hands. We decided to take our time getting ready for church the next morning and went to the 11 o'clock mass instead of the usual 9 o'clock. I wisely used that extra time to give Jase a bath. Thankfully, the half-hour of soaking time took most of the color out and all that was left was a little color around his nails. LOL
