They Might Be Keepers....

This May will be the four year anniversary of us building and moving into our home! There is a rental property located directly behind us. (We have about 1.25 acres so there is a good distance between us and them.) Every six months the owners lease the property out to new people. We have had frequent smokers and fighters, drunks, out of control teenagers with load music at 2am. Sexually active teenagers who were not afraid to show it off to the neighborhood, underage drinking parties which Josh and Chris (the neighbor) took care of, barking dogs left out on the deck in the cold, drug dealers, and frequent police visits.
We were estatic when February 1st rolled around and pulled up a nice minivan with what appeared to be a loving family. They have three kids one about three, one about six or seven, and one about ten. Oh yes and they have a dog and the kids are always outside playing with him and playing in the snow. I have yet to see the police arrive. This may be dream come true....finally I can take my kids outside without wondering what they see going on at the house next door!
