Opening night, with an unbelievable ending!!

OK, so its rather late for this post, but Oh well its a good story!
ON opening night for the Astros a group of our friends went together.

I forgot how fun baseball games are, and the yummy stadium crap food and beer.
Ainsley LOVED it, I was worried she wouldnt last very long and she sat in her seat watching the action for a majority of the game.

 Ella got some baseball lessons from Roy :) but was most impressed with the wave.

Easy night for Mama and Papa!


We even stayed for the Friday night fireworks which were great!

Now the craziness...
The girls fell asleep on the way home, so I picked up Ainsley to carry her upstairs while D opened the door and turned the alarm off. When I turned to walk up the stairs I noticed a hand written note stuck under a shoe. It said 
"Case # blah blah...
At 8:48pm your Alarm went off, and we were unable to reach you (fireworks!)
When we arrived at the property we found the back door open. It is our policy to check the premises, durning which an officer fell through your attic into your master closet ceiling.
If you have any questions, blah blah....."
Um, is this a joke?!!! I quickly laid Ainsley down and went to the closet. Sure enough there is a huge hole in the ceiling and insulation EVERYwhere! There is even scuff marks on the walls where you can see the poor officer kicked out when he feel.
I called the next day, mostly to see if the officer was ok. as soon as I said who I was the guy started laughing. apparently the one who fell was described as the "new go get 'um officer" caught himself by his elbows and "his ego is hurt more than his arms"
I guess I am mostly happy that they showed up and bothered to search the house instead of coming home to burglar hiding in my attic, on the other hand, cleaning up insulation for weeks has not been fun!
