OUR APRIL FOOL'S DAY :o)

This is what we did and let me tell you, it was fun.

First we prepared Oreo cookies. We scraped off the filling and refilled them with toothpaste :o) The white minty kind.

We got all of the kids in the kitchen, made a game out of eating the cookies. Getting them all to dunk them in milk, the older ones challenging them to eat two or three at once. It was so funny. The caregiver even got hit.....LOL. She asked for some, so we gave her two. Just as it was time for the contest to begin, she licked the "frosting" off and made this horrid face, knew in a second that it was not as she thought, but she held it together so the prank would not be ruined.

We were totally prepared for one or two of the kids to eat the cookies. We gave one son normal cookies as we knew he would not get it. Then we gave McClain normal cookies as he has some food aversions. This help fuel the trust as those two were eating away.....LOL.

Anyway, Micah took one bite and put it down and started making his funny laugh. He just kept laughing and looking at the cookies. Mordachi ate BOTH of his...oh my. LisaMarie got down right mad...but that is because she didn't get to eat the cookies...not to worry, we gave them all good Oreo's after the fact :o) Joey just kept looking at us and making faces and laughing as we were laughing.

Jeremy was somewhat mad as he had said over and over we would not get him this year...ha!!!!!!

Now, Jesse was having a teen fit so he would not come up when wee called him. Oh well...we want ahead. It worked out great cause when he did come up, the kids offered him two cookies and he took them. Poor McClain he was trying to hold it all in as Jesse was taking a bite of cookie, McClain busted out laughing...toothpaste....Another victim. Then as if it couldn't get better....we were just about all cleaned up when the PCA worker got here. LisaMarie offer her a cookie. So Amanda did not want to hurt her feelings so she took it. Suspense was great. Again McClain is going to bust a gut but he holds it in just till she tastes the cookie. Then he starts yelling toothpaste. It worked out again.

So much better than we could have ever thought. It was funnier than we could have ever dreamed and even today it was all over the school. No one could believe we even had the time to scrape clean so many cookies and prepare them.

Now, gotta get thinking about next year. They will all be older and wiser.
