What a Way to meet the neighbors....


As most of you know we haven't lived here for that long, and as it was November when we moved in, we really haven't met our neighbors other then a nod on the way in and out the door...till Monday night that is.....

Kendal was at home between jobs, and there is a knock on the door....

There is John....neighbor on our right.....

"Ughhhh.....my daughter threw a rock through your back window....."

Dumb me, I am thinking our house....although it would have been weird for her to have been in our back yard....

but no....

it was our CAR window.....shattered.....beyond repair...



Our neighbor was quite embarrassed, and kindly offered to pay the whole shot....(which fortunately with my insurance ended up only being $50 dollars.....

He helped Kendal put plastic over the window...(which wasn't too effective and kept blowing off every time I drove Kendal to work....)

There was glass every where....in the baby seats, under the car seats, in all kinds of cracks...I will be finding glass when we get rid of the car.

Dad brought the girl (who was only six) and very very upset....over to apolagize. She wrote us a letter...it was very cute. I don't think she will be doing that again.

Her and a friend were on the side walk throwing a very LARGE rock up in the air...I am glad it hit our window, and not the car itself.

The friend was not so forth coming and ran away, but John told daddy, who also came over and apolagized, and offered to pay......

Like I said. What a way to meet the neighbors....

Glad they are honest though.....
