While we were on vacation. Fabulous, right? Dealing with a flood alone is dramatic enough....but to be gone on vacation just makes it that much more enjoyable.
Yeah right.
To make a long story short - because, quite frankly I'm tired of discussing all the details - the entire downstairs needs to be replaced. Carpet, sofa, entertainment center, bookshelves, cabinets, drywall, trim, etc. Fun, huh?
But, things could be worse. We still have our house and our family. That's all that matters. Everything else can and will be replaced.
Close-up of the Laundry Room. Drywall is warped; needs to be replaced (along with the vanity). Flooring will also need to be replaced.
Here is the first step/main landing area downstairs. While all those spots aren't mold (it's actually rements of the carpet padding), the floorboard, trimwork, and drywall will need to be replaced here as well.
All the furniture shown here will need to be replaced.
This is kind of an obscure picture, but if you'll notice our sandbox is on top of the pipe. And that's not where we have our kids play in it. It traveled all the way there from the back of our house. With the sand in it. The rains were so strong and powerful, that it actually put a dent in our garage with the weight of it.
Fun times.

Oh my gosh - craziness! Sorry to hear about all of the rain. That is such a pain in the neck.
Boo! Chrissy that's such a bummer...I can't believe the sandbox, but I am glad that's now where you let your kids play:)
