Anyone who knows us knows our boys LOVE dessert. Even though we don't have dessert every night Tyler always asks for it and it's usually the only way we can get Ryen to eat his dinner. So when I saw this idea in the newspaper I knew I had to try it on the boys. The "hamburger" in the picture is really made out of cake for the "bun" and brownie for the "meat". I told the boys I had a great treat for them and when I pulled out the "hamburgers" I told them that since we just had soup for dinner I thought they would want something else. Tyler was disgusted it wasn't a real dessert, Ryen was appalled and John couldn't figure out what was going on. I put the "hamburgers" down and to my surprise the boys started eating them!! Tyler was half way through his first bite when he realized something was different. He said "wait, it's chocolate!". poor Ryen was eating his but he still had no idea what was going on. They thought it was really funny. The article in the paper also suggested red and yellow frosting, kiwi slices for "pickles" and sugar cookie "fries"

April Fools Day

Tyler Gets A Job
Yesterday John forgot his wallet, so being the wonderful wife I am, I packed the kids in the car and drove the 30 minutes to his work to give it to him. When it was time to leave, Tyler asked if he could stay and "work". John thought it would be a great idea although I was skeptical Tyler could sit there for five hours. I called to see how it was going a few hours later and talked to Tyler, he told me he was very busy. He had a meeting with Grandpa, had done a lot of calculations and was busy on the computer. John told me when it was time to go home Tyler didn't want to leave because he was so "busy" writing in a notebook things that just "had to get done before he could leave". I really didn't think a 6 year old would have fun at the office but Tyler loved it!!
