Heat Pump "Take Two" -- Almost

Well the other day our heat pump was almost stolen again. Thankfully, Uncle Philip pulled in and interrupted the robbery.  He found it with all the coils cut and on an appliance cart ready to be taken away. He locked it in the garage.
So now, for another $1100, it has been reinstalled with a metal cage around it.  We are hoping and praying this discourages any more robbers.
We also have someone living at the house.  He is a friend of Uncle Philip and Aunt Lana's.  Maybe having someone living there will help too.  Meanwhile, it is March 3--only 28 days till we close!!

Miranda is scheduled to get all four of her wisdom teeth taken out at 10:15 am tomorrow. She would appreciate your prayers that the sugery will go well and she will recover quickly.

Luke would also appreciate your prayers.  He found out that when you shoot a pop can with your airsoft pistol at close range--you'd better have your safety goggles on!  The plastic bullet came back and hit him on the right eye lid.  It is swollen up and watery and he is sensitive to light so he is wearing his sunglasses to do his school work.  Luckily, he had an appointment at the doctor's today for his sports physical, so he can get it checked out. 

And last of all, we are glad to have Mommy back!!  She flew up to Aunt Bonnie's house in MN last week to help paint on their new addition.  She was gone from Wed-Sun.  Before she left mom organized a dish system so we didn't argue over who would do dishes. I (Rachel) did the breakfast and lunch dishes and Miranda did the supper dishes. We found this to be incredibly efficient and decided to make it our regular routine. I would also make supper and Miranda would make sure the boys had breakfast and lunch. But now with Mommy back she wouldn't have to do anything and that would be a shame (hehe) so she is taking care of the meals most of the time.

Mommy also got a Thai cookbook for Christmas and we have discovered that Thai food is amazingly scrumptious!

Oh and some very important information, Luke's birthday is coming up on the 17th!

Thats all for now!
