Today we planned to hang out at Mom & Dad's house, let the kids play with their new toys and games, scrapbook (me), watch movies, relax, and get together with Jeremy's brother and his family tonight to celebrate Wilson's 10th birthday at Tokens & Tickets.
But, when we realized that back at our house the snow has all melted and there is to be a few inches of rain within the next 24 hours on top of all that ground wetness, we knew we had to get home immediately to make sure our basement wasn't flooded or about to flood. We quickly packed up, tried to explain to the kids why we had to leave 2 days early and miss out on more time with family and friends, and got in the car.
The roads were like a sheet of ice when we started out, and there were patches of ice in many spots on the way home. The fog was terrible for much of the trip! It was a real mess.
When we got home, we were actually very surprised there was no water in the basement--yet! But, the upstairs bathroom had some type of leak that ruined the kitchen ceiling.
We unpacked the car and are going to bed early.
