Wow, Mothers Day was unforgetable this year. The Friday before Mothers day started off fine. I started a load of laundry and was giving Drayden a bath when I heard the toilet bubbling. I knew that was not good, so I quickly finished Draydens bath and when I unplugged the drain I could feel cold water from the washer coming up. Next thing I knew the toilet and the bath tub were over flowing. I called JR and he said he would check things out when he got home. A few hours later the toilet and tub were back to normal. We thought we would just be careful by not using the washer and call the land lord on Monday. So Saturday we were cleaning our carpets and Jr dumped the water from the carpet cleaner into the toilet. BIG MISTAKE!!! The toilets over flowed again and both of the showers starting filling up with dirty water. We called the landlord and he couldn't get any one out till Sunday (Mothers Day). So we had no toilets and no showers, we had to make trips to Krista and Ricks house to use their bathrooms. Finally at about 2:00 the plumber showed up and in about 15 minutes he had the problem fixed. Then life went back to normal, we ended up doing a bbq with just us. We had steaks with this yummy blue cheese sauce that we make, the best corn I've had in a long time (so crisp and juicy) and a cold pasta salad. We ate out on the patio and the kids got to play in the little pool with their squirt guns. I told JR during dinner that this was the best Mothers Day ever he said "yeah right". Let me tell you it really was, because it started out so bad that once the plumbing was fixed and the bathrooms were clean and we could actually use our own toilets life was good. Top that with spending the rest of the day watching the kids play and relaxing with JR plus the yummy dinner and desert, it really was a great day!!!!
