our cinco de mayo consisted of the following activities......
-tyler being pulled over by an undercover cop
-tyler being told that he had two options, move his car off the road or it would be impounded.....a hard decision to make
-tyler being handcuffed and thrown into the police car because he had a warrant out for his arrest
-tyler's arms cramping up after being in the handcuffs for over 20 minutes (not going to lie i laughed out loud when he told me this)
-tyler being driven to jail
-the cop finally realizing tyler was not a criminal after much confusion and pleading on his end and turning the car back around
-tyler driving to heber to pay off a $150 fine for a the following - back in 2000 he got a ticket for a broken tail light that he HAD paid for right after getting it but apparently also had to appear in court for it and didn't know therefore never did. he had a warrant out for his arrest for 10 years.
such a good day. well for me at least. i laughed all day long after learning what had happened to him that morning. i'm not insensitive by any means. he was laughing himself....for the most part.
the best line from the morning -
"i'm not going to lie, while i was sitting in the cop car, handcuffed and buckled in, 80% of me was scared out of my mind but the other 20% kept thinking, "this is so cool!" - Tyler Powers
happy belated cinco de mayo! a day we'll never forget thanks to tyler.
(so badly wish i had a picture of this experience! had i been there the first thing i would have done is pull out my camera. and then started asking questions to clear up the situation and get my poor husband out of handcuffs. is that horrible that that would come
second?)

Really I think he should have gone to jail to just finish this experience out. It is pretty amazing. And I agree that Tyler saying that is awesome. Because 20% of that being cool really was!
Hilarious!! Tell him I know exactly where he's coming from... I've also had a warrant out for my arrest (which I had NO idea about for a very similar thing) Although my story doesn't end as cool, because I never got handcuffed... I got off with a wimpy old warning:)
Oh Tyla...you crazy SOB!
OKay, something like that would only happen to Tyler! That is awesome! It really is too bad that you didn't get a picture. Classic.
Okay, seriously the best story of the year. I love it, and I love that he thought the situation was "cool" (I totally agree).
love little tyler the rebel. i've always sensed the he was a criminal at heart. one of those things that you're happy it happened so you can always have the best story at the party. tell him congrats - but to shoot for a mug shot next time.
That's hillarious!! I don't know if we should have a criminal teaching those sunday school students of his, lol!
love it - but it was so much better hearing Tyler tell us about it at dinner!!!! maybe next time he'll get the watch. =)
So funny!!! hey i got a new phone and lost your number can you text me?
wow that is some holiday! glad he kept a little cool.
