April Fools Day

I was up to no good this April fools day! my late father was born on April fools day and was the ultimate jokester so it seems fitting I follow in his traditions.

I yarned the boys rooms... that was so funny! Bubba is a sleep walker and while I was up on top of the bunk trying to tie the yarn to the heat vent he gets up, totally unconscience might I add, and clumsily navigated through the yarn to the bathroom. On his return he said "this is weird!" and hops back in bed. I was still perched up on his bed attempting to act normal yet nearly peed my pants.I had fun little pranks in their lunches. When they came home from school I had new chores for them which under normal circumstance would not have been that unusual but the chores themselves were NOT at all usual. Ben called it, he said to be careful because Bubba would cry... and he did. BUT I could not help myself, I just had to milk it as long as possible, being steadfast that these were legit chores. I think Fish pretty much knew these were a joke but was not completely convinced for some time. Bubba colored all the beverages in the fridge green...notice his green finger... he got a little trouble for that one, I mean seriously, ALL of our drinks? We scraped out the cream in the Oreos and filled them with toothpaste and put rice in Dads toothpaste. Ahhh.. it was a fun day... It was a LOT of work but I can't wait to do it again!























A Very Merry UN-Birthday! Both of the twins teachers have summer birthdays and as part of the room parent responsibilities is to honor the teachers for their birthday. Since that is impossible I thought it would be a fun idea to surprise them with a Very Merry UN-Birthday. It was really fun! Away, a fun idea for other people you love too.
