Home Defense

Bryan and I just got home from a nice Sunday dinner with some of our friends from our Houston ward. It was our last night together before I trekked up to Washington so I wanted it to be special. Before we settled down to bed, I brought Bryan to the computer to watch "Provo, UT Girls" on youtube. Before we finished the clip, we here a... "pop, pop, pop" {broken glass} "pop, pop, pop". We both drop to the ground as we realize someones shooting outside our bedroom window (I promise we don't live in the ghetto). I stayed on the ground, scared. Bryan was proactive. He grabbed his phone, called 911 and our property's security guards, grabbed his 9mm and ran out the door. 5 minutes later, I finally decide to get up and scope out the damage and find the bullet.
The bullet ricocheted off the metal window thing and into our closet (the opposite direction of us). That was all the damage, which is cRaZy considering it was a hallowed .45 round. Cops showed later, took down our report and snatched the bullet. Apparently, the police were at other residents in the area for the same reason. Some one is shooting at apartments/condos/homes from the freeways and this wasn't the first time this week. Same weapon too. What a crummy way to end our last night together! We are blessed for being safe and protected that night. I am so grateful to have a husband with multiple weapons for our personal protection (never thought I'd say that). Situations like these really make you think about how precious our lives really are here on earth. I love you Bryan! Stay away from the window please:)
