I, like Dee Dee had the pleasure of attending girls camp - fortunately for me I left the night before the big "make-overs" on the leaders. I must say from the picture that Dee Dee posted that it wasn't nearly as bad as I had envisioned!
I got home from camp late Thursday night & ready for my comfy bed - my family were all gone (working for Jamey at the Orange County Fair for a big skateboard contest called the "Maloof Money Cup"). After organizing my things for the next day I went to bed - I was leaving early in the morning with my girlfriends to meet up with my family for the weekend event at the OC Fair. In the middle of the night (3:30AM) Lady (our dog) started barking & ran to the front door... I was pretty scared because she normally only barks at PEOPLE. I went to the front of the house & looked out the window to find my house covered in TOILET PAPER. Normally I would be amused, but I must say with no one home & lots to do I wasn't very happy... I sat & watched as a hooded teenager ran to my front door & proceeded to bang on our screen door... Little did he know I was watching him! He sat behind our car waiting for a response - but I didn't give it to him, I sat quietly watching the whole time. When I finally saw him (them) leave I returned to my bed & barely fell asleep in time to wake up to clean up the mess & get on the road to Orange County.
We had a great time, but it was exhausting. Jamey ran the VIP Lounge for the very important people :o) within the contest. The Maloof brothers (who own the Palms Hotel & the Sacramento Kings basketball team) put together the biggest prize purse in skateboarding history - a total of $500,000. They put together a street course that was better than most skate parks (and it was only temporary). They spared no expense. They also had a huge vert ramp for another contest. Jamey did a great job organizing the VIP Lounge - it looked great with palm trees & cement tables & benches... my girlfriends (Laura, Angie & Toraye) and I were the "hostesses" of the VIP lounge. Our jobs were to make sure that there was plenty of food & stocked the earphones - the VIP lounge was sponsored by Skullcandy - which is a headphone company that Jamey works for. Here are some pictures of Simon & Noah on the vert ramp....
Here is Noah getting ready to drop into the 13 foot vert ramp (yikes!!)

So did you know the teenagers who tp'd your house? We saw the remnants in the tree and wondered who the culprits were. At least you know it wasn't the YW because they were all at camp!! Too bad you didn't get much sleep before the big day. I'm glad it all worked out well.
I was going to ask the same question - did you know who they were, and I would have been FREAKED out!!!
