The Joys of Home Ownership

Last week we received some much needed rain.  In the past when we've had a heavy rainfall we've gotten a little water in our basement.  So last week I thought I had better check.  Sure enough the carpet in the one corner of the family room was wet.  After some investigating we discovered this ...

  

A crack in the foundation from the top to the bottom of the wall.  The insulation was completely soaked.


Has anyone had this problem?  Can it be repaired from the inside of the house? or are we going to have to excavate and fix the outside of the wall?  AARRGH!!
