Open for Business!

This weekend the pool became "COMPLETELY" ready for human enjoyment! It wasn't easy ridding the bottom of more than 2 lbs of dead worms! YUCK!



I would like to thank my trusty pool boy for all of his hard work! I just wish he could work some magic and make the water a little warmer.



As mentioned earlier the water is now up to a toasty 68 degrees. Hence, the reason why Atley is trying to coax Nash into the water by whispering sweet nothings into his ear, instead of jumping in himself.



We did manage to get them into the pool momentarily!




After which, they both rushed to the hot tub where they could play freely without the fear of hypothermia.




By the way, my garden is growing too! What a miracle! Why am I so amazed that squash can grow from such tiny seeds planted haphazardly by a two year old. I have heard about this phenomenon all my life but I am still so impressed to watch my little garden grow!

I like the new blog title. and I'm totally jelous of the pool and the garden. My garden is still a pill of gravel. Maybe next year it will be ready for planting.

Your pool is GORGEOUS! Great job pool boy! And Melisa, I am so proud of your garden. It looks so great! Keep posting updated pics of it so we can see it come into fruition. We'll just do our best to enjoy our inflatable pool. (However, it is much warmer than yours...a little too warm!)
