Sunday we entertained again! But this time all of the preliminary work had been done-- house cleaned, food made- just needing to be reheated. It was so stress-free and so enjoyable. We love seeing our friends from back home!
Boy and I had some excitement last Wednesday. It was dark and I had just picked him up from Scouts. We were sitting at a red light waiting for the light to turn green and then from the opposite side of the intersection a car with flashing lights drove to the middle of the intersection and stopped right in front of me....with headlights and flashing lights blaring right at us. It was a police car!
I told Boy: Drats! They found us! ;)
Next thing we saw was a huge CSI truck pass by us. We knew it was a CSI truck because the truck had huge letters with "CSI" on it for all the world to see. That truck was followed by 4 (really, I counted!) more police trucks. Then the flashing/ headlight in my eyes police car turned and passed by me and then all was right in the intersection again. I can't tell you how much I wanted to u-turn in that intersection and follow them!!! Yep, I'm nosy. It comes naturally. I want to be "in the know." That was A LOT of excitement for a week. Wouldn't you agree?
Yesterday, I was watching an episode of Border Wars on the National Geographic Channel. I don't think I'll watch it again. The places they showcase are just too close for comfort. I'd like to continue living in my sweet little bubble of a strawberry patch and not wonder if the house down the street is harboring 100 illegal immigrants or 1000 pounds of some illegal substance! Besides, I had my fill of living on the edge last Wednesday night. Can you believe the news didn't even pick up that story??!!! I still don't know what was going on and it is driving me crazy. Maybe I'll see it on Nat Geo Channel sometime.
Wanted to share a photo of our party. I was having too much fun and forgot to take more pictures!
aren't they cute? |
