Fish sticks, peas and a cupcake is what our dinner was on april fools
day this year.  I know, it's not very realistic, but I did get the kids to
believe it for a short minute.  Gabe was pretty confused and Hadley
said, "Mom...these are NOT chickens"  LOL

Gabe was pretty upset. He was positive the cupcake had

playdough on the top and refused to eat it.

The cupcake is meatloaf with colored mashed 

potatoes on the top.  I wish I wouldn't have used the

coloring I did...but that's what I had on hand.

Kyla and her friend Kenzi.  (I couldn't get a decent 

picture of them because of the light behind them)

Kenzie thought it was the greatest thing.  She text her

Mom a picture right away. 

Trying to decide if they dare eat it.

The peas were frooties that I had warmed up and

spent 2 hours cutting up and rolling into peas.

I mixed them with real peas because I didn't feel like

doing anymore than I had already spent time doing.  

For the fish sticks (or chicken) I got 2 wafer cookies.  

Stuck them together with peanut butter, then smeared 

the peanut butter all around it and rolled it in 

crushed cornflakes. 

I think it was a fun dinner and the kids asked what my

plans are for NEXT April Fools day.

Bianca decided that morning she wanted to play a prank on her friends at school,

So...we wrapped her arm in an ace bandage and she came up with the story that

Her Mom asked her to go downstairs and get a veggie for dinner when she tripped

and fell down the stairs and broke her arm.  Positive nobody would believe it, (but telling

her it was a great story and she would fool everybody) off she went to school.  Pretty

much all of her friends bought it.  She only told her best friend the truth.  So, she left

school and left everybody believing she had broken her arm, lol.  They found out on 

Monday when she went back to school that it was all a joke.  I don't think it will work

again next year though.

We hope everyone took the chance to have a little fun on this silly holiday.  I figure if we are celebrating such a dumb day, we might as well enjoy it!
