ISO - Two slightly used Murry Lawnmower headlights

So last night Hubby goes to mow the lawn...the last time we did it was about 2 weeks ago...we have a riding lawn mower.

he mows the front and then I go outside to tell him dinner is ready..

he asks me if I did anything with the lawn mower headlights...

my response "The lawn mower has headlights"

so then he lifts up the hood and shows me - the headlight wires have been pulled out and the headlight bulbs are missing...WTF - he said he noticed the wires hanging out of the hood when he went to start up the lawn mower and opened the hood and found no lightbulbs

Our first thought was maybe the girls did something...so we ask them they deny it - then TW says she did it so we ask her to come out and show us what she did - well the little thing isn't even big enough to

A) Lift the hood of the mower...
B) and her arms aren't long enough to reach where the bulbs were...

So we feel that there is no possible way she could have done anything to the lawn mower....plus the fact that the girls have been inbred with Catholic guilt anytime they accidently break something or do something they know is wrong they come to us right away with thier little lower lip out, big puppy dog eyes and the words "I'm so sorry I didn't mean it" - so if she had done something with the headlights she would have come and told us (after the fact of course).

so the question is....

Did someone hop our 5 ft fence, jimmy open our shed and steal our lightbulbs?...we have combo locks on the inside of all three fence doors, mainly we did it as a precaution so the girls couldn't get out of the backyard when they are playing back there and no one could just open a door and walk into our backyard

I am thinking maybe someone was trying to steal our lawnmower and pulled the wrong wires....our dog is outside during the day and has a dog pen with a dog house but she doesn't stay in there she has free roam in the whole yard and the garage (doggie door to garage) - most of the time her lazy ass is on her bed in the garage so it is possible someone could be in our backyard + the fact that she would intially bark and then probably go over and plop down on her back looking for a tummy rub...oh yeah we have such a vicious guard dog.

So they could have pulled the wires which caused the bulbs to pop out and then Ms. Lazy Bitch surprised them and they ran with the bulbs??? Nothing else seems to be missing from the shed - maybe they saw the half mounted turkey ass DH has sitting on the workbench and thought we might be into some sort of satanic turkey rituals???

To top it all off our house sits on a corner lot on a fairly traveled intersection - trees for the most part are non-exsistant on 3 sides of our property and we have no house behind us so our backyard is open for all to see...a person would have to be pretty stupid to try and steal something from our backyard...then again only the lawnmower light bulbs are missing...so stupidity is looking mighty good here...

We are going to talk to our next door neighbors (retired couple who stay home all day) and our neighbors in the cul-de-sac behind us (SAHM) and ask them to be on the lookout...

Seriously weird....
