Pool Project!

This is the second summer season that we have seriously contemplated getting a pool. Lets just say I don't make desicions that cost money very quickly. So after LOTS of prayers and sitting down talking about our life 'plans' for the next 5,10,20 years etc we decided to go ahead with it. We signed the contract March 14th and the first day we were able to swim was May 23! It wasn't too painful of process but I don't want to go through it again :)


Cones outlining the pool plan


We had to cut down 2 trees




The boys LOVED all the dirt!


They could sit and watch the trucks for hours













We got some rain after the rebar was put in


More dirt digging as the plumbing was put in


We were pretty good at playing in whatever state our back yard was


She couldn't figure out what was going on


A boy and his dirt!


They left equipment overnight so we sat in it


Jeff lost sleep over our mess of a backyard

Gunite complete = Dad relaxing


Coping laid


Tile work almost done


More dirt delivered to try to even out our yard


Jeff tans/supervises the kids


Always having fun!


Decking poured




Jeff doing front landscaping while waiting for back to be workable


Jeff's home made retaining wall


Jeff's landscaping behind the pool


Jeff was a machine and laid 5 pallets of grass by himself!





Plaster put down


Anxiously awaiting water in the pool


SO close just waiting for chemical to get right

We may have stayed up late to try out the light show!
