Happy <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day" target="_blank">April Fool's Day</a> 2015!<br />
<br />
Followers of my blog know that this is a favorite holiday of mine. <br />
<br />
I must admit naughty things have happen in the <a href="http://www.acraftyarab.blogspot.com/2014/04/happy-april-fools-day-2014.html" target="_blank">past</a> However, this year was the first year that my children have also joined in on the fun.<br />
<br />
I started by asking my 8 year old if she wanted Frozen Cereal. Of course, she was ecstatic at the idea as she loved the movie. However, she was not expecting this.<br />

Her revenge was covering my refrigerator with ghastly bugs, snakes, frogs and hand drawn googly eyes (she couldn't find the ones that "ahem" someone used last year). I stopped counting at 32.<br />

My middle child decided to get in on the fun by putting a few drops of yellow food coloring on the inside of a small piece of duct tape. She then placed this piece of duct tape on my faucet. This caused yellow water to be splashed all over my bathroom counters. Everywhere but my toothbrush.<br />

My oldest did not want to be outdone and took to my car. She soaked cotton balls in water and covered my hood with them in the shape of a smiley face emoji. The ones below lasted a few errands around town and I'm sure got lots of funny double takes.<br />

There were a few other occurrences throughout the day. Money taped to the garage rugs to give the illusion that it can be picked up easily.<br />

A cup was added to the side of the car with a magnet.<br />

And the driver's side of my car was covered in post it notes.<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
No one is claiming they did the above three. So I'm going to blame <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/shemsthesiamese/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">#ShemsTheSiamese</a> for now. If you look closely, you will see a paw print on the post it over my steering wheel.<br />
<br />
Did you get pranked on this day?
