Prom and our latest 'criminal'

     Isaac made it to his senior prom and had a blast taking his neighbor and friend, Sydney. They had a fun day in Salt Lake, with a few other friends, exploring a cool museum and riding scooters around the city. Their dinner at Red Robin was a bit frustrating with poor/slow waitstaff but they still had fun and got back in time to dress up and head to the dance. 

There were more photos taken but I haven't gotten them yet so this is all I can share for now.

      Sunday evening our little dog, Smalls, decided to ditch our ice cream party and go on a little adventure and found himself in jail! We were sure he'd return on his own or a call would come in from a kind stranger to tell us he was at the park or another of his favorite hang outs but by Monday night we were getting a little more worried so Greg checked the local animal shelter and found the photo on the left and was pretty sure that was our missing pet but I wasn't so sure, it's clearly, or not so clearly, a lousy photo. Anyway, Greg went first thing Tuesday morning to see for himself, and I won't go into details because it will take too long, but it was a complete joke/hassle to bail him out and it wasn't cheap either! There's no doubt he was picked up so the animal shelter could make a few bucks because there was no good reason for them keeping him when his name and our phone number was clearly embroidered on his collar. Anyway, he's home now and I doubt he's learned his lesson but hopefully next time he sees a police vehicle of any kind he'll run!

The black around his mouth is what was throwing me off. The photo I took today definitely proves his fur is not that dark around his mouth.

    So aside from runaway pets and a fun prom date for Isaac, we've had a pretty low-key week. Greg and Carter are currently on a campout with the priest quorum and the rest of us are finding ways to stay entertained here at home. Next week is the big birthday week for a couple boys. Carter is turning 16 on Monday! And Mark is turning 21 on Friday! So we'll be partying pretty hard! Drivers license for one and legal to drink for the other. Ha ha (Sadly that's probably exactly what Mark has planned for his 21st birthday.)
