A day in the life...
For those that have known us for a while...it always seems like the "crazy" stuff happens to us or the Greene side of my family. For example...on the twins first Halloween I was arrested...yes arrested for forgery. Turns out they had the wrong Leslie Greene, but I got booked, fingerprints, mug shot..the works...no trick or treat for me!
Then two years ago, our home was broken into after Lance left that morning for his accountability group. A man kicked in our back door and I met him in the living room....I screamed, he ran...no harm done to us, but fear racked me for months.
We moved into our new house this past February...a quite little neighborhood in Dallas. We love it here...but it turned out not to be as quiet as we had hoped. Monday night we all went out for a walk and our neighbor meets us on the street to say we better get back inside. There had been a robbery in Dallas and 5 men were on the loose and in our woods. Needless to say we get back home and almost immediately the helicopters are swarming our area. We look out and police cars in in our cul de sac. The helicopters are so close it sounds as if someone is cutting our grass. There was no way we could stay there and feel safe, so we packed up the van...loaded up the kids and camped out at my parents house. They ended up catching all the criminals by noon the next day and thank goodness no one was harmed...but ironically the policeman that responded to our old house break-in was the same cop that was in our driveway telling Lance what was going on in our backyard so to speak. It truly is NEVER dull at our house....just come hang out for a while!
