Busy Saturday

Todd woke up yesterday and noticed that his clock was not illuminated. He went and checked our electric panel and saw that one of our breakers had tripped. To make a long story short, it turned out that there was a short in our septic tank pump and that it had bitten the dust.

Todd is very good at mechanical things, so we started calling plumbing stores to see if we could find a replacement pump. After instructions to use as little water as possible to avoid a backup into the house, Todd was off on his quest. One trip to the plumbing store, two trips to Lowe's and several hours later, Todd had the pump changed out and we were up and running again.

In addition to that project, we also had our friend with the tractor return and do more leveling of the dirt in our backyard. Who knew that owing a house was so much work!

Septic crisis of the day.

More backyard work.

The boys played outside a lot since the weather was beautiful. Evan has insisted that I don't put any more photos of him on my blog, so it may be a while before you see him again.
