All is Well!!!!

On Sat. Nov. 7th, our son borrowed our truck to help his girlfriend move into her apartment. While inside moving stuff in, someone broke out the window and busted out the stereo and took a few items. While we were upset that some people who we shall call the have nots decided that our stuff should be there's, we were FAR more THANKFUL that C.J. and Jesse did not walk out at that moment. We also had our garage door opener in there, and with all your personal information on the car registration we were just so relieved to find out they did not touch that, so maybe they were intending to do that and got scared off by someone walking out.But to make this story meaningful, stuff is just that--STUFF, it means nothing, our Son and his girlfriend mean far more to us then anything and we are just so glad they were ok through out this. But yesterday while we were walking to the park for a fun day with Miss Camdyn, our son called and said the police had called and said they caught the guy and we would need to identify our "stuff"!!!!

A fun ride to the park!!!



"oh this is so fun"!!!!

What a fun day we had at the park!!!! Miss Camdyn loves to swing and slide, and her wheeeeee's make it all the better!!!!

Oh my goodness, Jamie. I'm sorry you had this frightening experience, but how grateful you must be that CJ and girlfriend were unharmed. What ever happened to 'The Welcome Wagon' anyway? This is no way to welcome someone to the neighborhood.
And of course I LOVED the pics of Camdyn and Papa at the Park. Priceless! : )

Thank goodness it was not worse. It has to be a scary experience to thing someone so evil was so close. Loved the pics of Papaw and Camdyn at the park.

So sorry for the hassle of the creeps who can't keep their hands off other peoples things. Why is it that some people think if they can see it, they can have it??
Hopefully, with the thieves "What goes around comes around"!!
I have no use for theft.....
Hugs,
Marilyn

Oh Jamie, I am so glad they caught the person and they didn't take your personal information. That is always the scary part. So glad no one was hurt too. Your little granddaughter is just the cutest thing and I love seeing her gorgeous smile. What a fun day at the park. Thanks for always leaving such gracious comments on my posts. I really appreciate it and your kind friendship. Have a super day. Hugs, Marty

Hi Jamie,
Oh them burgers!!!

Thankful your love ones are safe!!!

On a visit where my daughter once lived, I deliberately parked our car under a street light 'cause I had heard to park where there's
light...less chance of break-ins. Well, this didn't work for us. Somebody busted our car window and took what they wanted.

I had my (personal-hand-written-in--Deanna's-Bible) Bible in the car. They left it! hahaha. I was so glad they did.

Have a great Thanksgiving. God bless,

Hi Jamie!! I just read a few of your posts I missed and I'm so sorry about your friends loss...That is so sad and to have lost 3 of her children is too much to bare, I'll keep her in my prayers......I'm so glad that your son and his girlfriend weren't hurt a life is more important than stuff, you are so right. I'm glad to hear that the police have your things and that the guy was caught...maybe he will think twice about stealing again....Miss camdyn is adorable and your honey swinging with her is precious!!!! great picture!!! Hugs & Love Jennifer

Oh my, glad they caught the people.

I can't find your email. I wanted to email you about the luggage.

Yep, stuff is just stuff, but it still affects you. My son's violin was stolen from in front of our house, and I have never seen him so disturbed. We did recover it at a local pawn shop, but the experience leaves you shaken. I like that you balanced the bad with the good. Camden is blessed to have such attentive grandparents.

I can't even believe how many times our family has been robbed! I am SICK to my stomach that we are good decent people who work to buy our things, and others who don't think they need to be honest can just come and take from others! I hope he gets the fullest punishment possible!! And yes VERY relieved CJ and Jesse are safe, does she have an apartment alarm????

Buttercup said...

Glad that CJ and Jesse are okay and grateful that the things have been found. My mother had an experience when her car was stolen while she was visiting my father in the hospital. Very upsetting and the car -- damaged -- was found by the police not too far from the hospital.

Adorable Camdyn gets cuter in every picture. Always glad to see you stop by.

Oh my! What a scary thing! I'm glad they got the person responsible and everyone was okay.

And as always, Miss Camdyn brings a smile to my face!

Hello Jamie
My word! It can be a scary world...thank the Lord that your family were not there when it happened.I am sorry that you have to go through the ordeal of identifying and insurance,etc...but you are so right... stuff is just that, stuff!

Now that trip to the park looked like a very good time indeed! In fact, I think grandpa is having just as much fun on those swings as your sweet Camdyn.
Many blessings to you and yours
PS:I am in the marathon too!Thank you for your visit,it is so good to hear from you.

Ok so is CJ and his girlfriend going to be ok living there? Sounds scary to me. I am so glad they are ok. I am glad they caught the guy. It is always sad to think there are really crazy/scary people in this world. Hard to beleive, but it's true. Thanks for showing us the good too. Looks like a perfect day at the park. You always see the good in all things. Thanks for that. I look up to you for so many things and this is one of them. You and Corie are such good people, and I am so blessed to call you friends.

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY AND HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
I think we are going to see more and more of this sort of thing with so many out of work and getting desperate...of course that is NO excuse! I am so happy no one was hurt!
Your little Camdyn is just beautiful! What a joy she is for you!
Hugs,
Jil

Hi Jamie, I just wanted to stop in and say hi and also to see what you were up to. I see that you have been very busy with the police girlfriend. What is wrong with people thinking they can help themselves to whatever they want. I am happy no one was hurt and the bad guys got caught.
The family looks like they are having lots of fun together. Maybe after Thanksgiving and before Christmas we can manage lunch somewhere and catch up. Will be in touch, have a great turkey day, Char

Oh this makes me sooooo mad! I'm glad everyone is okay though. I caught
someone breaking into a friend's car and helped chase him down. It was years ago.... Not sure if I would do it again. ...

The dish show is here in Phx.... Its at the State Fair Grounds. I'll be there Sunday after church. Let me know if you want to meet me there. I have several friends that I may or may not see there. Including CeeKay :)

I honestly don't know how people even have the nerve to do that. I'm sorry that happened, but am so glad your son and his girlfriend weren't hurt! You are so right about stuff!
