What is the best April Fools Prank you ever did, or was done to you?

Mike is famous for his pranks, and early on in our marriage he would get me time and time again. A few years ago, for the first time, I turned the tables on him, and since then he has not done one prank to me on April 1st!


We were going out to eat at a certain restaurant a lot, as we had just started remodeling. At the time, we had 28 cats, 2 german shepherds, 1 border collie, a peacock and 2 horses. I talked with our favorite waitress and arranged for her to come up to our table all agitated and tell me about this pregnant female shepherd who had delivered 12 puppies and promptly ignored them. Mike is a such a sucker for shepherds and we rescue abused and negelected ones. When Donna told her story, I immediately told her we would be *happy* to take all the puppies and bottle feed them! LOL Mike's face was classic! I didn't even give him a chance to talk about it, just made all these plans to pick up the pups right after breakfast and get started! LOL

Mike looked like he had just swallowed a boulder! I know he was thinking about the hour feedings, the fact that there were 12 puppies! We finally let him off the hook when breakfast ended- but it was a classic "I gotcha Good!" The next day, he took me back to breakfast at the same restaurant and we presented Donna with a pair of slippers shaped like German Shepherd pups and they even barked!

I have to admit the most effective April Fools joke I've ever played was telling hubby I was pregnant and must have forgot to take 'the pill' a couple days in a row . (Steven was born in November so we were still in the sleepless nights stage and both of us were exhausted!) Okay.....not a nice joke but, it worked!

I think, if I recall correctly, my hubby started eating solid food again after 2 days!
Men just can't take a joke when the joke is on them! :LOL:

i agree with you G - men cannot handle it when the joke is on them - i played a joke in which i took a screenshot of the desktop and took the icons off and it looked like there were icons on the screen but they were actually a picture and he got sooo frustrated with me when he couldnt click on the icon to open the program! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Well, believe it or not my wedding anniversary is on April 1st.
I have never met anyone who has an anniversary on that day except for our new business partner....he and his wife have been married 32 years…

The best prank I have ever gotten any mileage out of was the ole' pregnancy announcement.
