Our Pool!

Posted in Family Fun!

We now have an adventure going on at our house.  Building a pool!  A relative of my husbands is giving us a Kayak Pool.  This pools retails for 15000.00 new!  Of course this one is several years old but we are so excited!  They were moving and the new owners wanted the yard without the pool and was going to destroy it so they gave it to us!   The previous owners have had so many great memories in this pool with their kids and nephews and we are hoping for the same.  We truly want the pool to be a blessing not only to us but our friends and families as well!  We are hoping for lots of pool parties.  After finding out the cost to bring the pool here and set it up (crazy expensive)  we decided to go for it ourselves.  Of course we are nervous but excited!  My husband's brother who is so talented in anything for the home is going to help us and someone from church who is going to do our digging and just plain labor from our whole family (really hoping to include the kids)  we are going to build this pool and put on a new deck (ours is so old it is a safety hazard)  So my husband, his brother, and my dad have done everything to get it down and to our house.  So I thought I would share with you our pool journey.  Here is the beginning! 

Doesn't look easy, does it?  We are up for the challenge!  Well........I Hope!

Why can't you be just a LITTLE closer. Looks like a fun adventure. Hope it goes smooth and comes together quickly.

You'll love it this summer, I'm sure.
We once had a pool given to us as well. My hubby went and disassembled the whole thing and had it in our basement, but we discovered that the upgrades we would need for it were more than we were willing to pay, so we gave it away.
Enjoy yours!
