It's one of those traditions that we're still doing because it means something to her...she's definitely our "tradition" girl!
We've discovered a few tricks along the way - like who's good at blowing the eggs (me) and who is good a working with the dye (Claire). But we both take turns designing eggs and have a great time together doing it.
At the end we both said, "Wow...that was a lot of work for 20 eggs!!"
But the time and memory with Claire? Priceless!!
Claire must get that from Mom. She stayed up past midnight on Easter-eve to make a pretty and colorful bowl of Easter eggs. The apple (or egg in this case) didn't fall far from the tree!

What beautiful eggs! Good job and what a fun tradition to do together! One thing we do is the weeks before Easter, every time we use an egg, we blow it out- soon we have lots of eggs available for painting and you don't have to do it all at once!
