This year for April fools I decided to so a fun dinner. When the boys came to the table this is what it looked like.
It took Riley a really long time sitting there before he started eating to discover what it was. Jeremy on the other hand quickly started whining and complaining that he doesn't like peas and demanding to know WHY I put them on his plate. Once he gave something a try he didn't say a word but ate and ate. Once the boys realized that their plate of food was actually all candy and ice cream, I handed them the cupcakes from the middle of the table and said that it was their dinner. The cupcakes were actually meatloaf with mashed potatoes on top.
All in all it was a good trick. The kids were actually fooled and we all enjoyed it.
