Close call

Today we were just playing in the yard when I discovered the gate wasn't latched. Dad was busy playing computer games so Calvin and I made out like bandits. Dad thought it was weird we weren't trying to get back in so he checked on us. We were way down the street(still in back yards). He called for us to come and Calvin ran all the way home only to realize I didn't follow so he turned to come back to me which made me run (the wrong way). So as a sweet deal dad got us some yummy hot dogs. Thank God mom wasn't home she would have freaked out. Some lady had the nerve to tell dad "There are sidewalks you know" when he was walking us back home. They said something about a padlock from now on.
