We had to re-do our pool because of an unfortunate unsupervised day of play in the backyard where large quantities of dirt clods were thrown into the pool. We had to drain the pool, and so while we had it drained, we decided to do a little unscheduled maintinance and paint the whole inside of the pool. It is a really good idea if it's not 90 degrees outside and unplanned but my dad and I worked and got it done in a few hours. Now we have a beautiful pool that looks brand new. FUN! Can't wait to jump in when it gets warm.
We also have had a strip of dirt on our side yard for the last 4 1/2 years that we have lived here that has been the eyesore of the yard. It is just so yucky. Every time it rained, we would have MUD that is just no fun to deal with. The boys loved the dirt too but they would be so dirty after throwing it at eachother all day that they would have to strip down to their undies before they could come back into my house. Also... as mentioned above, much of the dirt would end up in my pool. So... we got small river rock delivered last weekend and spread it out in our yard. Goodbye dirt. I will not miss you!!! The kids had a good time riding in the Bobcat while Papa moved the rock into the backyard for us. They also spent the whole next day outside playing in the rock pile as it continued to get smaller and smaller while we spread it out. Thanks Dad, Mom and D-Dawg for coming and helping us out!

The pool looks great, and the boys look so big in that picture on the bobcat.
