Happy 40th, Lon!

On the eve of Lon's 40th birthday, I was up kind-of late working on some digital scrapbook pages (because it was quiet and I could concentrate w/o interruptions). Anyway, it seemed like all the neighborhood dogs (including ours) had been barking for at least 10 minutes (which is not unusual). Anyway, our bedroom window was open and I heard the rocks move right outside the window and our dogs started barking even more. I thought it was an animal until about a minute later, I heard the rocks move again and my heart sank into my stomach. I turned off the lights and peeked out my window and was SCARED TO DEATH to see a man crouching around Lon's car. My first thought was, "OH no, he is going to steal Lon's car right in front of us". So, I quietly woke up Lon. He peeked out the window and then started screaming at whoever it was, who ran quickly away. We proceeded to turn on all of our outside lights and call 911. When I was on the phone with 911, I looked out the front window and..................saw that we had been toilet papered and there were headstones in our front yard. So, I told the guy at 911 not to worry about sending an officer, but I was thankful it was just toilet paper and not someone actually trying to steal our car. Anyway, after about 5 minutes, Lon just had to see what was outside and this is what we found...........

We did not find out who the pranksters were until almost a week later. Thanks, Luke & Gini for the laughs & great story!
