For those of you who don't know, we have just moved to Raymond. I have been so excited to move back to Southern Ab, where the grass is greener, the air is sweeter, the people are nicer...
Well I have been excited, but I'm starting to think that we are not wanted in this little Mormon town.
It all started two weeks ago, when we woke up to discover our van missing. We drive a beautiful 2002 Pontiac Montana minivan. Apparently exactly what small town thief's are looking for.
We found our van a few days later, parked in church parking lot. I guess someone just needed a ride to the church in the middle of the night!? Doesn't look like they caused any damage, but that was the first sign that maybe we should keep our eyes open, or at least keep our eyes on our stuff!
That same week, Chase brought his football to school. Sure enough when he went to play with it at recess, it was gone. He told the teacher, but she didn't do anything about it! No announcement over the intercom, no posters were made - nothing!
Chase found the ball the next day, back on his shelf. That was our second warning to get out!
Then just last night, the thieves followed me to HillSpring. I went to my cousins baby shower, and had a great time. We were the last to leave, and I went to put on my brown Old Navy Boots, only to discover them missing too!!!! Someone stole my shoes!!! In the middle of winter!!!
In their place was a nice pair of brown UGGS. We all know that the UGGS are a better boot, I'm sure that they cost a LOT more than my Old Navys. What else could I do, than put them on and go home?
Some people might say that things are starting to look up for the Evans family. But I think my dad said it best when he said, "Sure hope there's not Foot Rot in those boots..."
We should probably pack our bags right now, and move back to Blackfalds.
your "stolen" van showed up at the church... the exact same church you go to regularly? and the football was found on the shelf exactly where chase left it? sounds like the evans's might just be a little forgetful.
ReplyDeleteand in dad's exact words "i hope there's no HOOF rot"! even worse.
i wish someone would steal my boots and give me new uggs..
ReplyDeleteHahaha Brett, that is exactly what I was thinking!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Shann "forgot" she bought herself new boots too...
ReplyDeleteI forgot where MEC had moved to today, and drove to the place it moved out of 10 years ago----you're on that slippery slope Shan!
