A man with a boy's toy......

I know that Eric was a little annoyed with me when he asked if I had bought him a Christmas present and I had told him yes. He gave me the evil eye. I explained to him that you just couldn't have one without the other. He seem confused, but that's all I said. So on Christmas morning when we were handing out the presents, I told Trent to take one for him and the other was for his dad and they had to open them up together. If you can't tell, Eric was a little giddy when he opened his NERF dart gun.
Through out the rest of the day, I was finding weird things around the house. In my bathroom, on the tub wall, on the tile was a black circle. On my window above the kitchen sink, in the fogginess of it was circles drawn all over it with numbers in side the circle (like a target). The cats were nowhere to be found, and the dog was laying on her bed in the corner behind the recliner(which she never does).
That's because these two were running around the house shooting at moving targets, and all the targets they had drawn on my walls and windows. My big screen TV has little circles from the suction cup darts. When Eric was annoyed with whatever the kids were watching, he'd shoot at the TV. When he'd get up to get a drink of water from the kitchen, he'd slink around the corner and shoot at the window, there was no end.

I am now finding darts in my laundry, in the dog water bowl, the bathroom tub, you name it, I'm sure there is one there too.
Boys will be boys..........
