This blog post needs a parental advisory warning

So Will is all flush with Halloween spirit and has been making lots of decorations to hang around the house....pumpkins, ghosts, etc.  He made a large skeleton a few days ago, and John helped him hang it up near the front door.  Apparently neither of us took a good look at the skeleton, because it took us a few days to realize that Will made it...ahem...anatomically correct:


Me, shocked: "Will, does your skeleton have boy parts????"

Will, proudly: "Yes, I made it out of candy corn!!"

He also has knees made of Twizzlers, and elbows of jelly beans, in case you were curious.

So now I'm trying to convince him to make the skeleton some pants, and, like any artist, he's strongly resisting any alterations to his work.  Pretty sure I'm going to win this one.

I'm also pretty sure I know why the pest control man was laughing when he came to the door today.

Oh that's so funny. Reminds me of when my Shep made an anatomically correct robot out of legos. Boys - they really do love their, um, specials.
