Did you play any pranks today??

[Took]

DD and I pranked each other.

She's on Spring Break this week and was chilling in the basement. I came down in somewhat of a panic and said "Did you forget about your grandparents coming today?!" She said "Oh, no! You never told me!" and ran upstairs to clean her room and bath. She did a great job.

I wrote the words "April Fools" on the calendar for April 1. When she finished cleaning, I said, "Have you checked the calendar today?" She looked. Then, she got it. "AAAAGH!" I laughed so hard (and i got a teen to clean her room).

Okay, so last night about 9:00pm, she gets me. I had forgotten all about the day.

She did an elaborate make-up job on her forehead (she and her cousins are actors who've learned to do fake blood, bruises, etc.). Anyway, she drops something heavy upstairs and then comes down in a panic. "Mom, that heavy picture frame on my wall just fell and hit me on the head. Is it bad?" I see the blood. I have a small panic. Then, she grins. "April Fools!"

We both had a good laugh. I don't mind that kind of "lie" at all. I find it humorous!

got my DS back for a previous prank he played on me....he has been waiting FOREVER to go t a HUGE paintball field by us an hour away, nothing out there really he knows I am being uber nice to take him and sit there for 8 hours, a lot of things have to fall into place for this outing to happen. weather, $, time off...anyway, we had it all set for yesterday..kid couldn't sleep all night he was SO excited...I had DH tell him when he woke up bright and early that I was in the bathroom, stomach flu...no way could I go sit in the boonies for 8 hours...DH was like .."DAD, you HAVE to take the day off and take me! I saved for a year to be able to go!" Nice concern for my health, lol.....DH couldn't carry it thru any longer tho...told the kid April Fools...wish DH had a camera for the look on DS face tho..and serves him right, remember this was a pay back prank
