Happy Easter!

So the White House has unveiled it's 2007 Easter Egg Collection, a collection of 50 eggs (one from each state) painted by regional artists. They got nothin' on the 2007 Barnes Collection. Megan finally made it home from her South American excursion (sky-diving DVD in hand) in time to help us color eggs. It's a family tradition in our house. We don't have tons of family traditions, but the few we have involve decorating food items.

Every year, whoever is around gets together and competes for Best Egg. In the past, we've had some great eggs. Rebecca started a tie-dying trend and Dad always creates a self-portrait egg. I generally stick with my scribble technique. My egg ideas are always best implemented by other people. This year, we had mostly theme eggs. You'll see some of the best below:

Notice the Rebecca Tribute Egg (tie-dyed), the Earth Egg, the Camo Egg, and my finest work -- the Hell Fire and Damnation Egg. Mom tried to put a cross sticker on my Hell Egg to sanctify it but I would hear nothing of it. I think I have a Scribble Egg in there somewhere.

Unfortunately, Mom left that whole basket of eggs out for three days now so I'm not eating any of those. She swears they're fine to eat but I think she's nuts. I'm just glad I have photographic evidence of which ones have the Egg Rot.
