Have you seen our tree house?

Not your typical tree house hun?
This is the wall in Isabella's room that the tree hit. Notice it is bowing out...not suppose to do that.
This is the outlet that was on the wall that got hit. And the base boards were totally destroyed. We could see all the way outside at the base board.
This hole was caused when one of the truss broke through the ceiling. (We had 3 truss broke from the impact and 3 more broke due to the shock.)
This is the backside of the outlet. Notice it stripped the wires and completely exposed them. Because they were hot wires we had to cut power to that side of the house.

This was the next morning after our wonderful contractor and 2 of his guys had tarped the roof the night before.

This is the branch that went through the roof on the front side. It just missed the hot water heater that is located in our attic (I know it is a stupid place for it but that is where they put them in new houses here). The branch was 10 inches in diameter.


Anyone need wood....we have a 101 ft. of it.

On 12/9 we had one of the most horrible events happen that possibly could to your home. We had a 101 ft. white oak fall on the house. It came down on Isabella's room and cracked the wall from the roof to the foundation and put 3 holes in our roof. However, we found out that was not the extent of our damage. Travis found that 3 of truss we broken and we had extensive damage to the side of the house. After our contractor came out and looked the house over again here is the damage we found.
3 truss broke due to impact
3 cracked from the shock
1 huge hole in the front of the roof
2 smaller holes in the back of the roof
1 large crack from roof to foundation
exposed wiring
Gazebo completely bent
Storage container lid cracked and broken
And our best one of all....this past Tuesday I did laundry and my normal routine to find that we had raw sewage backing up in our toilets and bathtubs. (AAAHHH!!!!) When the tree fell it cracked a section of our sewer pipe running into the house. Luckily the plumber was able to fix it without having to cut into the foundation. So after all is said and done the work to fix the house has begun and will continue while we are in Knoxville. It should be finished by the time we get back, just in time for us to move.
