Living in Georgia my whole life has been pretty uneventful when it comes to natural disasters. We don't get much snow, we don't have earthquakes and we most certainly don't have torrential rains.....until now. After a pretty wet month we found ourselves praying for the rain to stop, which is a huge deal when you live in a state that is constantly in a draught. It seems that our prayers wouldn't be answered until we had one good day of what can only be described as hellacious rain!!! It started late Sunday night and wouldn't stop POURING until Monday night. Thank God, we put a pipe under our yard several years ago that diverted our rain to the side of our house or else we would've been camping out on our roof!!! Unfortunately, Paulding county was hit very hard and several people's houses were completely under water and ruined. We are considering ourselves very lucky and hoping that the rain will hold off so that our county and the others affected can be repaired!! To document the occasion I took some pictures of the river rapids that came our way :)
It was some CRAZY rain! I don't know how you managed all by yourself with the kiddos.
