Vandalized Again!

Well, for the third time in 4 years and the fourth time since I've lived here, we've been vandalized. I had a my 12 speed bike stolen in 1989 when we left the garage door up when we went to work one day. In January 2005 the magnetic signs for Greg's truck were stolen off it right in our driveway on a Saturday morning. Last year while we were away for our anniversary, someone broke into Mark's car and stole his stereo. Yesterday, someone stole both of Greg's license plates and the frame I bought him for Christmas that said Hazenberg Landscape Management. Apparently someone wants to start a landscaping business and has the same last name as us!

We called the police and did a report. I told Greg if we get a chance to go to court to press charges we should take it, but be willing to offer a bargain. The offenders have to work 2 full weeks straight with Greg doing his business in the hot sun. That way, they work for their offense, and he gets to put a little Jesus in them. It just might turn their life around.

So, Greg drives without plates for a few days until we can get to DMV. He has a note from the officer with the report number and his name so if he gets pulled over, they can find we're in process of getting them replaced. We'll also be cleared of any crimes that might be committed with our plates. (My main concern).

Well, off to take Kristen to church early for worship practice, then to pick up a friend's grandchildren for church. It's going to be a busy morning with transportation, etc. Blessings on this sunny Lord's day.
