So, I was leaving the house this morning to go volunteer at Chloe's school, and when I was backing out of the driveway, I noticed there was water running out of our yard onto the sidewalk. I called Jennie (who was babysitting the little boys for me) and asked her to check the inside of the house and the outside faucet (where we hook up the hose) to make sure nothing weird was going on. She said nothing was wrong. I called Matt, and he called and had her check a few more things.
Long story short, we were scared it was our main water line into our house, and so we (actually our neighbor) shut off all water for about 3 hours (until Matt got home from golfing-haha).
the water...
the problem...
turns out, after they dug up a way bigger hole than they really needed to, it was just our main sprinkler line (whew!). It was a pretty easy fix (a clamp had just come loose).
the fix...
just a little tightening and adjusting and it was back together
now for puttin' the yard back together...
...hopefully it'll grow back together and we won't even notice ;)
BIIIIIG thanks to Matt's dad for helping, and to Susan for delaying the weekend getaway a bit to loan Richard to us :) And a big thanks to Jennie for babysitting this morning and checking on all the water stuff for us. Love you guys. Don't know what we'd do without ya :)
