Disaster at the Butler's

As the picture shows you can guess that this doesn't look very good. I was getting ready to go to a wedding reception when I went downstairs in Creed's room to get his church clothes. I could hear watering running almost like the sprinklers were on outside. Well, there is a little door in the wall where the pipe is in the picture, so I opened it, and water started spraying me in the face.... Not Good..... I didn't know where to start with the turning off the water situation, being how I was home by myself and no one bothered to show me how to get the H2O shut off to the house. I called Bold's dad and he came and helped me turn the water off, then we found this huge crack in the side of the pipe.....GREAT!!!! Good thing I have an awesome brother in law who also happens to be a plumber, he was nice enough to come over to my house on a Friday night and fix it for me. This room also happens to be my storage room for the time being..... which means I have BOXES AND BOXES of baby clothes that I had to rescue... I have been washing clothes for three days now...
These are all the blankets that I had to wash .
It totally soaked the floor, so here I was with the shop-vac and the fan trying to get all the water dried. I am just lucky that I caught it before it got too bad.
