2 days.

There were 2 days of nice weather that is.  It is now back to the freezing, nasty rain.  Yuck!  During the 2 days of bliss, we had a massive plumbing disaster.  Charles called me around 9:30 and informed me that there was muddy (is that a word?) water coming up through the drains of  the shower, both bathtubs, both toilets and the washing machine (filled with baby things as well)... not so blissful.  We have a home warranty (I don't think we'll ever get one again) and of course, this was not covered.  We still got to pay the guy $60 for coming to tell us so.  He proceeded to tell us that in order to fix the problem, we needed to cut down a tree and get a new sewere line which should only cost around $5,000.  We called our regular plumber and he was able to get everything fixed for MUCH less.

Aunt Katie picked Rivers up from school that day and brought him home to play in the backyard while Charles and I dealt with the "plumbing issue".  Here are a few pics Katie took with her phone :)
