boys and their weapons

In the past few days Will has re-discovered his Star Wars gun he got for Christmas last year. It shoots off those nerf-type bullets, and much to his dismay, he could only find a couple of them around the house. So, today I took Will and Jake to Target to get another pack of them--of course, we did end up in the Halloween section, and we'll just say that I could have spent a lot more time and money there than I did, but that's a whole other story.
Will broke open his new bag of "bullets" and started shooting at the TV. Then he went outside with Jake and their friend, Nathan, and a few minutes later I heard something keep hitting the windows at the back of the house. It didn't take long to figure out what was going on...



What is it about boys and weapons?! They couldn't get them to stick to the windows, so I taught them the trick about licking the end before they put it in the gun. Wasn't that nice of me?!! It was a success.

nice to know we aren't the only ones with weapons issues. We went and got Speed Racer today and walked down the Halloween aisle at Target also - that place is pure evil! Your family life is great. Keep it up!

The picture of the t.v. made us laugh, but you have a long way to go to catch up to Spencer's collection of guns! We love you!
