Ostern Preparation (6th of April)

   Happy Good Friday, everyone !

   My host family didn´t really celebrate Good Friday today, but we are eating as vegetarians today.Today is a public holiday so everyone decided to stay at home.

   And guess what ? We are making some Easter preparation today by decorating and dyeing the Easter eggs.
 
    Easter is this Sunday, and I absolutely can´t wait ! I never celebrate Easter before and I am really looking forward to celebrate it with my host family and see how is like ! Excited, this will be my first Easter celebration EVER !! 

   So, we started our easter preparation by dye-ing some eggs. Not some eggs, but lots of eggs !! Mama bought some special easter eggs dye-ing kit to start our work ! And so, me and Jojo start our work. I didn´t really know how to do it at first, so Jojo and mama teach me the steps of doing it.

   So at first, we hard boiled the eggs.Then, mix the colorings with water and vinegar. Next ,we use some candle stick to draw the patterns that we like on those hard-boiled eggs. I am not really good at drawing the patterns on the eggs. Jojo were way better than me when doing that. And then we put the candle-drawed eggs into the colors-mixing. Then the `magic´ happened  , after a minute, the color appeared on the eggs and the patterns that we candle-drawed are outline prettily.

    We made a lot of patterns on the eggs and mixing some colors. I have quite a fun doing that. It´s quite a process...

Jojo´s creation. How pretty!

I love this one, because of the specially bright color !

Taddaa! How colorful they turned out !

Better put those colorful eggs back to their colorful nest ! :D

Add some Easter chocolates. 



 

    So, this is an another new experience for me again. Trying something new for the first time in my life ;) What a perfect activity to spent Good Friday.
 
   So, the house and the backyard are decorated with some Easter decoration too. Really pretty and sweet! Here are some of the decorations  :
