A girl and her Pap

We had an intresting week. The good news is that school is out-hooray! The drama this week has been our leaking pipe from the street to our house. This has earned us the title "The biggest Jerks in Nashville". At least it appears that way. You see, after the flood, our city was on mandatory water conservation since one of the two water plants was completely out of use. We took this very seriously. We conserved as much as we possibly could, and we jeered at the reports on the news of people who were stockpiling water and going to the car wash.

Then we got our water bill from this month, and it was 5 times the usual amount!! Apparently, we had a leak, and I'm sure the mayor's office had us tagged as a household who was stockpiling water in our tub, pots, pans, etc. Anyway, we had the plumber come out to give us an estimate-which was outrageous-so Bubby ended up digging a ditch through our front yard on Monday to cut the cost of the plumber's bill. The good part about all of this is that my dad came to help with the ditch, and we ended up getting to enjoy some bonus Pap time! See, every cloud does have a silver lining!

Here's a sweet video of Bonnie and Pap taking a walk:
