Well, as much fun as Flaming Gorge was, we didn't end our holiday weekend on such a good note. When we got home from our fabulous 3 day trip, we walked in to find our house looking like this after our top floor toilet ran and overflowed for 3 days. The damage went from the top floor, through the main floor, and down into the basement. Thank goodness we have a drain in the basement that the water was able to drain into or we could have come home to a foot of water in our basement. It was devastating. I am happy to report that nothing irreplaceable was damaged and everything can be fixed. Yea for Utah Disaster Relief!!! They are an amazing organization and every person that has come through our house makes me feel like I have known them for years and are so compassionate. We are so lucky that no one was hurt and all can be repaired. When it sounds like a helicopter is going to land in your house because 30 fans are running to dry it out, you really appreciate your home and the every day quite. I want to thank all of our friends and family who made sure we had everything we needed during the terrible first week of this mess. We are so blessed to know the most amazing and caring people.









The progress so far...

Didn't we just do this???
