Later that day, I did the exact same thing, then, sat down on the couch and asked Tyson to get me a drink...okay, pathetic I know. He didn't fall for it, but a moment later Dad came into the kitchen to get a drink and bam... let's just say, he didn't think it was funny...at...all... So I haven't done much pranking since.
So now, on April Fool's Day, I keep it fun and harmless. Last year I tried a meatloaf cake, but Justin and I didn't dig it. It was kind of, weird. So this year I made a regular meatloaf for us and I told the boys that's what we were having for dinner. When they all came to sit up, I told Justin, "you know, the boys have been so good today should we just let them have a cupcake for dinner instead." Of course the boys were extremely thrilled about that idea.
When Corbin, saw it he said, "hey, that's a meatloaf cupcake"...okay, so no fooling him...
Taylor on the other hand thought that it was hilarious when he took a lick of the 'frosting' and found it not to be so sweet.
Levi, didn't care one bit, he chowed that thing faster than you could say "Happy April Fool's Day!"
A little later that evening, I told the boys that we were having a second dinner, they sat up to this.
They knew something was different about it, but once they took a bite, they were not let down!
They enjoyed Mashed Potatoes and Gravy (Ice Cream and Caramel syrup), Peas and Carrots (lime and orange flavor tootsie rolls), Bacon (Caramel and Tootsie rolls), and a fried egg (melted white chocolate with yellow m&m)I think April Fools Day CAN be fun....and not get you in big trouble!
