Ten days and counting

I can’t believe that Christmas will be here in 10 days. So much to do, so much to do! Here are some of the fun Christmas activities we have been doing.

Thanksgiving Entertainment

We had a few friends over to eat Thanksgiving dinner. When we were eating dinner Derek noticed someone walking around the house behind us with a flash light. No one is living in the house so the boys went to investigate. It looked like they were steeling stuff from the house so we called the cops. We kept peeking out the window to see what would happen. When the Cops showed up we saw them shine their flashlight on the guy in the driveway who was getting in his car to leave. The police man got back in his car without talking to the man and came over to our house. We explained to him our reasons for being concerned. Just then, the car that was in the driveway of the house made a speedy exit. The police officer asked us if that was the guy. When we told him that it was he looked to his partner and said, “Oh, we should probably go ask him some questions.” The police men got back in their car and tried to catch, the man, but by this time he was long gone. I don’t know why they didn’t talk to him the first time. The police officer told us that maybe the guy was just looking to buy the house…on Thanksgiving…in the dark…with no “for sale” sign in the front yard…yeah right. At least we did our part.
