There's a spider on your head!!

I LOVE April Fools Day! Last year was really my first year getting into it, making strange food and teaching Malia the in's and out's of the day. We had a lot of fun today, so I thought I would share. Malia woke this morning to her favorite breakfast, blueberry pancakes, except these ones really were blue! She thought it was fantastic and gobbled them up!
One of her favorite tricks last year was putting a raisin in Rod's tube of toothpaste, so after her breakfast was gone, that was her next move.
She encouraged him to brush his teeth from the second he woke up. It was so funny how obvious she was being about it. She also shook his hand with one of those hand buzzer things and put jacks into the toes of his shoes. She loves doing things to trick her daddy because he is such a teaser, April Fool's is like her day for revenge. Rod was waiting outside by his car to take her to school, I kissed her goodbye and no sooner than she walked out the door I hear, "Oh my gosh daddy, your tire is flat!" " April Fool's!" She is such a funny kid.
After she got home from school, Rod pretended to sneeze on her and shot her with silly string, she cried, I laughed! It was the funniest thing I think I have seen in a long time. Once Malia figured out that she wasn't smothered in boogers, she was totally into it, and I gave her her own can. Let the madness begin!!! Malia had ballet today, so we kind of just chilled for the afternoon. After ballet, I set them at the table for dinner and presented them with this cake.
Malia couldn't believe that I was letting them have cake for dinner. I served it up and Malia was really disappointed that her cake had potatoes on it. She then realized that we were actually having meatloaf and potatoes for dinner. Malia and Brin ate it up because I had informed them that I had a surprise dessert waiting for them!Little did they know that their special dessert was already sitting at the table right in front of them!!When it was time for dessert I brought in some plates, spoons, and a pink trowel. I told them that for dessert, we would be having dirt. I grabbed the plant and just started digging into it with the trowel. Malia was like, oh yea, we're havin dirt! Ya think she is catching on?? Anywho, the "dirt" was a big hit and the day was a great one. Oh yea, Malia decided to pull one last prank her daddy before the night was over. She called him at worked and informed him that while she was dancing at ballet today, she broke her ankle. She thought it was pretty funny!! BTW, the "dirt" is layers of graham cracker crumbs, banana pudding, banana slices, and cool whip!! It was delish!!
Hope your April Fool's was as good as mine.
