Rain Rain Go AWAY!!!

Saturday was very hectic. I (Nancy) was the co-chair for my twins club resale - which has been a lot of work lately! But, yesterday all the work paid off. The only problem was it was the rainiest day in Chicago's history. That's right - it poured all day.

I got home around 2pm and could not park in our driveway - and barely got down the street. I parked a block away - everything was flooded. When the girls woke up from their nap they came downstairs and were flipped out by the water outside our door. We got their shoes on and they went splashing in our new "pool" for a quick couple of minutes. By dinnertime water was about 2 feet deep in the street and our driveway was totally flooded.

We were very lucky that we did not have any water in our basement. By morning the street was dry and though the gardens are still wet, normalcy is back on the horizon.
