On this particular day the boys were playing in the back yard doing there thing and again I had just gotten out of the shower, I heard something going on by the gate on the side of the house so I leaned outside and called for them as the front door bell rang and I saw one of the kids running away. THEY WERE IN THE FRONT YARD! WHAT! Luckily they had just gotten there. So I got them back in the back yard closed the gate and ask them how they got out. Nate of course said " I used a stick and pushed the latch up and Andrew pulled the door open." Such nice team work. and that is how we now have a combination pad lock on the back gate.
Trash comes at our house on Fridays so on Thursday afternoon I put the trash in the front yard and left the lock hanging on the fence but did not lock it( really because I can't remember the combo) because I was going to move the trash back in the next morning and re-lock it so there was no need. Sure enough that afternoon no lock on the gate, but an upside down big five gallon
bucket next to the fence. Luckily they knew just where they put it and now it stays locked even on trash day.
