How it happened: Someone noticed that the jacuzzi didn't have much water, and then we all noticed that it was EMPTYING super fast! We all ran down to the basement and, sure enough, the jacuzzi pump was leaking!
But nothing can stop the Gibson-Doxey clan! We swept/shoveled/swooshed most of the water out into the garage stairwell and assembly-line-styled it up the stairs with buckets and dumped it outside. We tried to towel up the rest, but it was soaked!
So we lifted up the wet carpet and left it up to dry. Luckily, our family has connections, and we got 5 big fans to speed up the process.
Here's some pics for your enjoyment:
Thanks again to all who helped out! We couldn't have done it without you.

Holy cow! First we've heard of this! Bry had something go wrong with his house? Looks like fun times.
Everyone needs to have a chance to do "the flooded basement dance", and I see you've had your round of it. And what are the chances of having everyone there to help--golden. Will it happen again while we're all in Utah? Should everyone bring a fan and a squeegee? I could bring my version of a squeegee--a rake with a piece of that tubular pipe insulation cut to fit. Actually, now that I think of it, we have a squeegee in the car at all times. We use them in the mornings here instead of ice scrapers. :) Can't wait to see everyone!
That is a real choice picture of Matts buttocks and boxers... love. it.
p.s. Even though it wasn't so fun for you guys~ it was the highlight of our trip! ha ha... Thank goodness Caitlin didn't shock herself when she was plugging in the fan, especially for any Mexicans.
