"I Pity The Fool.."

Yesterday was April Fool's Day. I love a good prank, even better when it's one I played on someone else! Sadly, there was no one at our home to prank yesterday. But it got me thinking about some of the fun pranks that we've pulled on each other over the years, two in particular!

One night when the kids were much younger, I told them that we were having a mixed up fun dinner - we would have dessert for dinner. They were quite excited as I served up these colourful cupcakes. Have you ever bitten into something only to find it doesn't taste anything like you were expecting it to taste like? Then you'll know how my kids felt. Haha - these "special" cupcakes were actually mini meatloaves with dyed mashed potato on top. It was priceless!!


Another good prank was when I sewed the bottom of Caleb's favourite pair of shorts together. So when he tried to put them on, his feet wouldn't go all the way through.

That's AWESOME! I wish you'd have posted that BEFORE April fools so I'd have a good idea! I am not as creative as you!!! Good one! I LOVE the shorts joke too! Super funny!
