It wouldn't be silly without some disguises!
I also purchased whoopie cushions that were waiting on the chairs for when the kids and Foster Dad came in! (This was the only time they were allowed to say fart at the dining room table!)
Our meal consisted of cheeseburgers, cupcakes and juice.
Or did it?
Foster child 3 trying in vain to drink his juice out of his silly straw!
It was red Jello.
Foster Child 1 was not fooled at all with this dinner! She knew the cupcakes, which were served first, were really meatloaf cupcakes with mashed potato frosting (which I added yellow food coloring to, to make it a tad more frostingish.)
Foster Child 2 chowing down on the sweetest cheeseburger he's ever had! This idea came from my sister and was yellow cake mix made in 8 oz pineapple cans for the bun, with sesame seeds sprinkled on top too, with brownie as the meat, and frosting dyed yellow/orange for cheese.
Foster Child 3, who would not touch any of his meatloaf cupcake, shouted "Burger, burger!" when I brought them out. He probably couldn't understand why I wouldn't let him have any, not realizing it was dessert. Since it was a special occasion, I did give him a small bit, to which he then shouted, "Cake! Cake! More cake!"
We ate dinner while telling knock knock jokes thanks to the Land Of Nod's website, which has knock knock jokes by their product descriptions. One of our favorites:
Knock, knock?
Who's there?
Cows go
Cows go who?
No, cows go moo!
We also played Cootie, a game I bought this week at Target for $1.79, thanks to coupon stacking! I figured it would be perfect, since the object of the game is to create silly bugs.
We ended the night by watching the Ultimate Silly Song Countdown DVD featuring the Veggie Tales. We all had our favorite Silly Songs, but the best quotes came while watching the "I Love My Lips" video and Foster Children 1 and 2 both proclaiming, "But he doesn't have any lips!"
It was a very silly night with lots of laughter, joy and silliness!

SO COOL!!!
Love it! Everything turned out soooo... great! By the way, is the scarf you're wearing in the picture the one Aunt Shirley made for you? So cute - next time you ask her to make something for you, you should just ask her to make two ; )
Awesome! I loved everything you did. How fun you are. I am definitely not going to be busy next year so I can do something fun like this. You inspire me. :)
