Darcy's Eventful Birthday

On October 22, we awoke to our doorbell ringing. Clayton opened the door and saw our neighbor, and behind him was a river in our front yard (a water pipe had burst)! Our neighbor had already called the water company for us...a perk of living in the good ol' south. :) But I got a few pictures in. It may be hard to see, but the water was gushing out and sounded like a river...it flowed down into our backyard, and also down the cul-de-sac into another neighbor's garage. OOPS! Anyway, we spent most of the day on Darcy's birthday with no water, but we managed to bake a cake anyway and just saved the dishes for later. Grandma Johnson was here and we had a great time having dinner, opening presents, and eating cake. Darcy got a lot of great phone calls and a lot of terrific gifts and we thank you all for making her day special!
