Thanksgiving Adventures

Well, Thanksgiving has come and gone, but not without some interesting things happening. My youngest two siblings and I drove to our sister's house in Blue Springs, MO for the holiday and to have some fun. Turkey Bowl on Thursday morning, a great turkey dinner at noonish, and then some basketball in the afternoon. Eventful, but with nothing big or bad happening. Which is just how we like it.

Friday morning, we decided to get up at 4am to hit the stores for some Black Friday deals. We were in and out of Wal-Mart within 35 minutes and then hit Target, where we were in and out in 10 minutes. Then back home we went for some much needed sleep.

Still nothing big or bad has happened. All good

Saturday morning, I am woken up by some pounding on the front door. Turns out to be a police officer. Upon answering the door, he asks, "Are you the owner of the maroon skylark parked on the street?" I answered in the affirmative and he went on to say "Well, someone smashed in your driver's side window last night."

The car is actually my brother's and he heard the conversation at the door and quickly grabbed his keys and ran out to the car. Not like he really needed them. We got out to the car to see glass all over the street and upon looking around inside, discovered whoever smashed the window only took my brother's brand new Shopvac and nothing else. There were close to 100 cds on the front seat and they were untouched. Who breaks into a car to steal a shopvac????
