That's entertainment!?

Prancer came over this afternoon.  He took about an hour and a half to settle down, but finally - only after threatening to send him home if he couldn't be nice to everyone in the house - we got him and Mozart settled in with popcorn to watch Mouse. 

The wife and I then sat for a moment to enjoy our own popcorn, but not wanting to distract the boys with our own video we stood to investigate the what was going on with the cop car parked on our street.  Uh.  Three cop cars.  Er, no wait, FIVE cop cars.   We stood dumbfounded.

The cops emerged from the cars, and guns drawn - oh, yes guns drawn(!!) - they descended on the house across the street.  We pulled the blinds so the boys wouldn't see what what going on should they get up from their movie-watching, and then we sat, side by side and cross-legged on the floor with our popcorn so we could just see over the window sill, but hopefully, no get shot should a stray bullet fly!  Seriously!  In our neighborhood?? 

I'm all for keeping it exciting, but I could REALLY do without that kind of action on a Sunday afternoon!
