Hot Water, Grampa, Dog & Birthday with Chacos!

So, last Wednesday morning we woke up to water standing in the kitchen. The hot water heater decided it was done. Scott shut off the water to the house and soaked up the water and we went to work. Thankfully, Derek, Lindsay and my dad were able to come over and help us after work. Our small group teacher stopped by for a visit and ended up staying until about 10:30. We got it back and working on Thursday…we couldn’t finish it Wednesday night because we needed a part and the stores were already closed. But, it works great now and it wasn’t a huge ordeal like the bathroom. So, that was great!

My Grampa is in the hospital with pneumonia and a blockage in his intestines. We are hoping he won’t have to have surgery…it will just depend on whether or not they can get the blockage out with just a tube. Please pray that he doesn’t need surgery. I was able to find some pretty cheap airline tickets, so Lori, Joel and I are flying to Denver on the 29th. I am sad that Scott can’t go, but he doesn’t really have enough time to take off from work. We are really excited that we get to go!

Our house is still for sale. Someone said they were going to come and see it over the weekend, but they never came.

News on Trish…she didn’t get along with Jimmy’s dog, so he had to bring her back. My sister, Heather ended up taking her. Hannah has wanted a dog for so long and is thrilled! She loves Trish! Hopefully, Ruthie will warm up to her too…she is scared to death of her.

I had a really nice birthday. Scott got me a bread machine and these shoes...

My parents got me That Thing You Do! on DVD and a gift certificate for a pedicure. Heather, Lori, Philip and Sally all went in together and got me these Chacos…


Lori also got me Juno on DVD. Derek and Lindsay got me season 2 of How I Met Your Mother and my in-laws got me a gift card to Bath & Body Works. I think that is all. We also went out to dinner on Friday night to Provino’s Italian Restaurant.

That is just about it. I am so glad that it is getting warm outside again! I love the warm weather.

Beth! I am so sorry I missed your Birthday! I think I did last year as well. Please don't take that as an indication of how I feel about you. I am just forgetful and way too occupied with life here. I really do love you! Happy Birthday!
