Every time we get a good rain, the basement starts to leak. The girls make a mad dash for the bathroom towels and start running the shop vac all over the basement from the pantry to their room. It's truly an awful situation. So Perry decided we could solve this problem, but it would take a good bit of back breaking work. If it could keep the girls from having to stay up all night vacuuming water, they were totally in! The dug out cubic tons of dirt and moved it to the side of the house that needed the dirt thanks to some erosion that's been going on. It took them 3 full days of digging and they all came in red from head to toe every day. We have since had a significant amount of rain and guess what! No leaking!! They all worked their tails off and it paid off beautifully! Of course, the littles had a blast just playing in all the mud and chaos.
