What is it about boys and guns?

Does every boy have a fascination with guns and shooting everything, while doing laser sounds, and ninja rolls to the ground behind a couch so the rocket ship doesn't see them? Okay, I guess that is a rather specific example, but it seems to be all about the guns. In our defense, it is not like they are watching Terminator or Die Hard...mostly disney movies.

This picture says so much. These actions figures were actually Todd's when he was Drew's age and Drew LOVES them!!


Thought this shot was appropriate with the Olympics in full force right now. Concentrate more on the American flag and less on the army guys.


Can you see the laser noise coming out of his mouth, and the army guy that is knocked over because of the laser?

PS..do you like how I call it laser...like it makes the guns less real and the shooting at things not so bad?

Lilly wanted to join the action.


This video is included mostly because we captured the line we most dread out of Drew's mouth....

Ohhh, and go ahead and ask me what I am doing in this video?

"Hey Lindsey, what are you doing in this video?"
"Just cleaning dried-aged puke off my Uggs"

Life imitating Art

I do love how Lilly and Drew are getting older and drawing things.. Real ideas and concepts.

This was a let's draw a face on our magna-doodle day.( I tried to rotate this and it will not upload correctly, sorry)

I wonder if we will be having spa days in third or fourth grade? hmmmmmmmm.
