It is official! We are swimming!
We thought we would be swimming yesterday, but our pool wasn't even close to being filled. So, we thought we would run the hose overnight and when we woke up this morning that we would be able to turn it off...no such luck! Well over 52 hours after they dropped the hose in, we are almost done! But we were done enough for us to take a quick dip after our long day! The pool water is HOT! Like hot, hot, hot, but I won't complain, it is so much better than it being freezing!
Tomorrow they come to teach us how to maintain everything!

LOVE Jenni!!! xoxo
I feel a whoop comin on! hahahhaha thanks for getting that song stuck in my head (: I can't believe how quiiiiick your pool happened! I love it.
Me & bacon miss you guys! We're thinkin' tea?

YAY!!!!!!!!!!! Looks fabulous! I am not going to lie, though - I am super jealous! Haha!
Congrats! The pool looks fabulous.
tooo Cute! your pool looks awesome! Swimming with kids is so much fun. Also, love your main blog picture of your children.
it looks amazing! congrats and have fun :)
And to ever think you guys were not going to get a pool... PHEWY, so glad it is finally done, and YOU DID IT! Look how happy Kyan, Lola, and mommy look!
I LOVE the pebble sheen color you picked, it makes the water look so blue like a plaster pool. My guess is you guys don't know how to maintain the waterfall yet (I no see it on)?
Can't wait to come take a "dip baby dip" (ha ha) with you!!
BTW, I was dying laughing at Kyan's upside down goggles. He cracks me up in those suckers, and even more so with them upside down ;-). We have a pair he lefted behind, and a sad sad fishy (I think he's dead) of Lola's.
isn't it the best! i loved to just stare at ours once it was complete. very fun!
can you please email me, kmurphyfamily@aol.com. i have misplaced your information regarding your havaiana win. so sorry. i want to get them out to you today :O)
wow! i would love that pool too :)
cute pic...good to see you this week!
HOW did I know for certain, when this photo finally made the blog....that Kyan would be sportin' those goggles?!? Haaaa!
The pool looks awesome & love the big shelf! I would like to invite myself to lay on that shelf with my Frien, cocktails in-hand, sometime in the not-too-distant future! : )
Ok here we go:
1. I miss you!! :(
2. Kyan's 1st day of school post, oh boy, lots of tears...even your second day post when you got in trouble with the aide! haha. I love it, and it made me cry, I totally understand about the kiddos growing up.
3. Your new car...way cool! I hope it doesn't develop a "lemon attitude"
4. YOUR POOL!!! OMW!!!!!!!!! The entire thing is soooooo awesome! I'm so excited for you guys and extremely jealous of that beautiful backyard. Wow..makes me want to go back to teaching so we could afford one, haha. :)
5. How did Alisha win that scrub? Seriously, why do all my friends have the luck?!?
xoxo
oh yay! it looks great!
shoot - i'd take it, hot water and all anyday ;-)
i bet the kiddos wake up everyday asking to go swimming, huh?
