Carrots and Burglars

So we had a pretty exciting weekend. Saturday morning came early, but we were up for a great cause. 
We worked at the High Plains Food Bank Garden for 4 hours Saturday morning. 


Also there were some goats.


I spent most of my time planting seeds and harvesting over-planted carrots. I destroyed my fingers.
I felt like that old lady on Happy Gilmore.


Then, like all people who have been working outside and are covered in dirt, we went to Cracker Barrel for some delicious breakfast for lunch. Except Andrew, he actually got lunch, which was weird.

Sunday was a day for babysitting and hanging out with friends.

UNTIL 9:40 P.M.

We were returning home from dinner with our friends, when we realized there was a police car in the alley (we have a rear entry garage). At first we couldn't tell, but we quickly realized the police were parked at our driveway. There was a wrecked SUV parked sideways in our driveway with all of doors open. Since I didn't take any pictures, here's an awesome drawing to set up the scene:


Yes, I am a graphic designer and yes,

STOLEN CAR.

Some car burglars were being chased by a "van full of rednecks" and decided to 
ditch the car in our drive way and break through the fence to escape. 

The best part was when APD told us to go ahead and go around to the front of the house, 
go inside and check it out, and come out in 5 minutes to let them know we're okay.

Wait...what?

So if we don't come out in 5 minutes, you're going to come inside and save us 
from the car burglars who were hiding in our house, right?

We're probably already dead.


Needless to say we set the alarm and grabbed the shot gun.

Yeah, so how was your weekend?
