Bethany flushed her Snoopy toothbrush down the potty. We were NOT happy. Apparently, toothbrushes are very hard to remove. But before shelling out lots of cash for a new potty or a plumber, we thought we'd try to get it out ourselves. It was a pretty nasty job. A plunger didn't work. A grabber didn't work. We (Hiram) eventually took it out of the floor and tried to push the toothbrush out from the base of the toilet into the bathtub, but that didn't work either.

Finally, in a last-ditch effort, we took it outside and sprayed our hose through it. Imagine our excitement at seeing Snoopy staring back at us from the grass when we turned the toilet right-side up!

So we (mostly Hiram) fixed our problem for just the cost of a new wax toilet ring! What a handy husband! And now Bethany is not the only one who has played in the potty:)

PS. Bethany was kind of sad that we threw Snoopy away.
