Good Ole Furnace...

Last week our furnace decided it was time to die. We knew that the furnace was on it's way out but we thought we could to summer and replace when there was not a dire need for it. We were wrong. We spend last Tuesday through Friday with out any heat in our house. This was not good since it has been an unusually cold April around here.The temperature in our house was between 58-61 Degrees. Yikes it was COLD!

Thank goodness we have a fireplace that kept us somewhat warm. The kids seemed to do okay with it. Jon said on Thursday that Ella and him were putting together a puzzle and she got up, went to the closet and put on a pair of mittens. Of course, don't feel too bad for her as when I got home she was running around the house without socks on!

Here are some pictures of us all by the fireplace trying to keep warm. As you can see even the cats were cold!
The good news is that we have a new furnace and A/C unit so we are set for this summer and the heat! Our old A/C was almost 40 years old and the A/C guy could not believe that it was still running. Let's hope for those kind of results with this new Furnace and A/C!
