Professional Water Heater Installers

Ok, so this isn't about Patrick, but we are very proud of ourselves. The day started out not so good. I went to work for a little while and I get a phone call from Teddy saying the water heater is broke. At least he was home and noticed the hissing sound. Luckily there wasn't much water to clean up and it was only in the laundry room. Well, after about 6 trips to Home Depot, $450.00, and 6 hours, we hope we have a brand new working water heater!! We went together to Home Depot to buy the water heater, then Teddy took 3 trips back to Home Depot and 1 trip to Elliott's Hardware (because he was too embarrassed to go back into Home Depot again) and I made 2 more trips to Home Depot (I actually asked someone exactly what we needed, what a concept...the second trip was actually unnecessary because Teddy thought he needed something he didn't). But we got it done and we are proud of ourselves. So if any of you find yourselves with a broken water heater, we are available for hire. Now that we know how to do it, it shouldn't take us as long.

Here is a picture of Patrick holding onto my hand. He is currently learning depth perception. He was trying to grab at Teddy's hat today and when Teddy got close enough he was able to grab it.

The joy of and worry of home ownership. As one that have experienced both (doing it by myself and the second time have someone do it), I am glad that you were there when it happened and able to replace it yourself. You've saved at least $1000 there. As for Patrick, we missed him very much. LY, Dad
