Our Memorial Day Weekend Project






Putting up a HUGE pool!!!!! Everyone picthed in and helped. Thanks everybody! I'll try to post the pictures in chronological order. Will post pics of the finished product tomorrow.
Pic 1: Daddy is showing Jacob how the level works.
Pic 2: Still leveling......
Pic 3: Unrolling a VERY heavy pool wall.
Pic 4: The wall is up!
Pic 5: Jared washes down the inside of the walls and levels and smooths out the pool bottom before the liner goes in.
The only thing these pictures don't show you is how DIRTY we all were. I still can hardly believe that we had the site leveled, the pool errected, the liner in and the pool filled in 48 hours. That's teamwork!

Lots of work, but the results are sooo worth it. Seeing the kids enjoying the pool is just great. They are kinda blue when they get out, since we have had an unusual number of cool nights (in the low to upper 50's) and the temperature of the water has not come up much. When it gets REALLY warm, I'll swim with them. :)

Wow, that's a big pool! You are all going to have such a great summer in it. I liked the picture of your little girl wearing her swimsuit, in anticipation, I presume. ;-)

I can't imagine putting a pool up by yourselves. We have a huge above ground one too, but it was put up for us. You will sure enjoy it! It's great that the whole family got in on it!

Have a great evening!
