An Eventful Evening

Last night, the four of us headed to our new favorite park for a walk around the lake. We had a great time and got in some good exercise. We had just gotten back to the playground to let the boys play for a bit when a guy walked up to us and said, "Do you guys drive a Toyota Corolla?" That's never a good thing...

Well, he informed us that it had been broken into, so we headed back down the path to the parking lot. The front passenger side window had been smashed, and they grabbed my diaper bag, which included my wallet, phone, and camera (and some dirty old Kleenex. Ha!). Lovely. They had gotten into another car and stolen her bags as well. So, we talked to the cops, then waited around while they hunted in the woods for our stuff. They found my diaper bag and checkbook, and all the stuff from the other lady (they had just taken her cash) but my wallet, phone, and camera are still gone. They also found the bat they used to bust the windows. Then the forensics guy came and took pictures, then bagged it all up and took it back to the station.

So now we have to replace our window, my phone, and another camera. Some of you may know we have very bad "luck" with cameras - I think this will be number seven in the four and a half years we've been married... Maybe we should just switch to disposables.

Anyway, we're thankful that it's just our window that was ruined, I had just emptied all the pictures off our camera, and I had no cash in my wallet. Maybe we should put a sign in our car that says POOR SEMINARY STUDENTS to prevent this from happening again...
