The rains came down, and the floods came up

On Sunday, it totally down poured in the late afternoon, and our backyard was flooded.

Abby was in awe of all the rain.  She kept saying "Holy heck, thats a lot of rain!" 

We lucked out and no water came into our basement, but I think a lot of people in the area weren't as lucky.  Our neighbors dug a trench from the backyard to the street to try to get the water to drain instead of going into their basement.
