Ok So this weekend hubby and I and the three kids went to a church about three hours away. Hubby is a possible candidate there and we had a church desert and then hubby was also going to be speaking Sunday during all three services. Well we got there around 1:30 had lunch and then hubby and I got up at 4 to take our showers and get the kids ready. There was an older husband and wife who were coming to have dinner with us at 5 and then the church fellowship was at 6:30. Well about 4:45 the doorbell rings…LUCKILY I was dressed. Hubby made the comment WOW SO AND SO ARE EARLY…I went to the door who should be standing there BUT A LOCAL POLICE OFFICER!.. UH OH what on earth was going on??? I said hello and he proceeded to interrogate me about why we were in this house that had not been inhabited for a couple of years…GULP! I tried to explain but he was insisting that what I was saying was not true finally in desperation I called for Hubby.. I said “Honey” And he yelled back What do you what” in a rather frustrated tone because he was wrestling a naked 3 year old. And i quickly yelled back there is a police officer at the door. Hubby came out trying to keep Tornado at bay! We started throwing out name from the church and finally we got to a name that shall remain unstated and the officer repeated the name and said BOY that name sounds really familiar…I think I just arrested him a few days ago. Forgetting he was a police officer I said I don’t think you would have arrested this guy…the questioning went on for another two minutes and finally he smiled and said my name is ……and he shook our hands and that was that. I fell to the steps with a smile! I began to think man that last name sounds familiar and I remember one of the deacon’s wives telling me her son was an officer in the town!!!. I connected the dots after he left. That guy who had just been arrested was the officer’s brother-in-law!!!..We were the recipients of a practical joke. One that was talked about for the rest of the weekend…Even one of hubbies questions that night was ..Do you have a criminal record..To which hubby responded with..Not until tonight! Later after all was said and done the officer stopped by the church and Tornado went up and asked him for his gun…the officer said no to which Tornado responded with asking for his keys…to which he said YES…SO tornado ran around for a while with all the keys to all the businesses in town…when he was bored with them he went back and gave the officer his keys back and said NOW GIVE ME YOU GUN. to which the officer said no..he is a persistent little booger..AND BRAVE TOO!
