Our new windows!
We had an amazing gift given to us today. Allen and Steve from Wholesale Windows installed new windows in the back of our house. They are going to be replacing our back door too! Why did they do this? Well, It all started with our great friends Rick and Mary. They got new windows at their house and couldn't believe the difference it made. The windows block out so much of the wind, dust and sound! They also hold the heat in, in the winter and hold the cool air in, in the summer. This makes it great on the utilities bill! They told Allen they wanted to help us out with buying one window for us.(They obviously don't come cheap!) We were so excited and grateful!
When Allen came out to measure the window he measured the others so we could have an idea of how much they would cost so we could get them as our budget would allow. Allen called a week later to tell us that his company and some other amazing people wanted to donate the money and time to replace all of our back windows AND the door too!
If any of you have have been to our home, you know that we have a huge gravel pit behind our backyard. When the wind blows, which is something that happens OFTEN; the dirt from the gravel pit blows right through our door and windows! It is a daily chore to keep the window seals and floor clean from all the dirt. As you know, this is more then just an annoyance for someone who likes a clean house(who me??); the bacteria in dirt can actually make Emily really sick and has the capability of killing her!
If you are thinking about replacing your windows at all these are the guys to talk to. They did such an amazing job. We have been so impressed with their genuine and sincere concern for our family. They didn't just give us some old models that they didn't need anymore...these are custom made and very high quality! You can find them at wholesalewindowinc.com
We are once again so grateful for the angels that are sent our way. Thank you Wholesale Windows and everyone that helped make this possible. Thank you for helping us keep Emily safe in our home.

Hi Jill, this is Jourdan from the gym (my husband Rod grew up a few houses down from the Heaps in Orem.)
I just wanted to say that you are such a gracious & grateful receiver. Between feeling guilty for others' spent time & effort, refusing the service, and not showing gratitude, there is a fine art to accepting help and it looks like you have it mastered. What a great example you are for your children and others.
You and your family are such incredible examples to us. Thanks for letting your light shine.
That is going to help soooo much, I just can't believe how wonderful people are, it really makes you want to be a better person. Thank you so much Mary and Rick and when we get windows we are definetly going through with them, that is so awesome, what a great company!
It is so inspiring to see such generosity. Wow. Happy new windows!!
This mad me get all teary!! I am so thankful that you are being watched over! Thank you Wholesale Windows!
Hi Jill-
It's me again. Sorry to overtake your blog. I was just reading about your family and saw this picture. Steve is the bishop of my old ward. Truly a wonderful man. :-)
Thanks so much for the nice post! It was our pleasure! When can we come over to finish the Door? Alan
