Friday morning we had rain. I was ecstatic that it was raining and the snow was starting to melt...until I found one of the windows in the basement overflowing the snow melt onto the living room floor. Fortunetly, I found the leak relatively soon after it started, so there wasn't a whole lot of wet carpet. We pulled up the carpet, took out the soaked portion of carpet pad, and turned the fan on to dry out the mess. Just when we thought we had recovered from the flood, Saturday at about 10pm I found that the window was leaking again! Once again we sopped up the water and continued running the fan. Then a couple of hours later, just after midnight, I found that the window in our bedroom was also leaking!! Just as we were getting ready to go to bed last night we had to clean up the mess in our bedroom and move our bed and Lila's bed into our spare bedroom. We finally went to bed at 2am, but had to get up at 9 to get to stake conference this morning. We officially had a nightmare, and it only got worse this afternoon!! When we got back from stake conference both the windows were leaking again and now the spare bedroom closet floor was completely wet also! Ahhhhh, what a nightmare!! The basement is a complete mess, so it looks like we'll be sleeping upstairs tonight in Darren's parents spare room. On the bright side, Lila slept through the whole ordeal both last night and this afternoon :o)
