What day is it?????
It's April Fools Day......and I did it up good!
I love my sweet, sweet son-in-law {Tom}
and when you love people, you often think of them.
This morning....I was passing their house, and I suddenly remembered that today was April Fools Day.
I couldn't resist......
It's not an unusual thing for me to call Tom, at least a couple times during the year, to ask if they intended to leave their garage door up.
Some mornings are just busy and one or the other {Tom or Shanda} will drive out the driveway....while forgetting to put the door down.
Now keep in mind that they live on a Farm to Market road, and several homes in the area have been broken into over the past few years.
Anyways.....this morning, I called Tom's cell phone and when he answered, I said: "Hey Tom, just wanted to check to see if you left your garage door up on purpose? There is a truck in your driveway and they are loading up your 4 wheeler. Is someone taking it to work on it?"
I could hear the stress in his voice!!! Before I could even say: "April Fools"....he hung the phone up.
Yep...I knew without a doubt what he was doing. He was looking for the number to call the police!!!
I immediately called him back and thank goodness he answered! He was already in his truck, headed to Chandler and YES, he was looking for the # to phone the police.
I said: "Tom, Tom.....April Fools!
What a sigh he gave off. NO...he wasn't mad at me. He was just so relieved to know the truth!!
He laughed, and I am still laughing!!!
He has told me several times today...."That I GOT HIM."
Yep, I sure did!!!
It almost backfired on me, but I was able to save myself from being picked up and hauled off to jail for this hilarious prank.
I could just see the Headlines now:
"April Fools joke lands East Texas Woman in jail." lol.....
Isn't life FUN!
HaHa!! I love your spunk!
