Which one of you asked for the swimming pool?

lots of rain + not so good pump = flooded basement 3 days before Christmas

No worries though…as you can see in the picture the new pump is taking care of the situation.  Stephen and Brandon got it going with an automatic float switch so it will turn itself on automatically when the hole is full of water.  As of today the pump in still running for 2-3 minutes every 15-20 minutes and the basement is dry!  Our neighbors are convinced that we are also keeping their basements dry with as much water is comes out of that thing!

Thanks to Mom and Dad Jensen and Aaron and Brandon for dropping everything and running to our rescue with wet/dry vac,fans, sump pump expertise and a some muscle for moving boxes and furniture!
