What time is it? SUMMER TIME!!

We weren't planning on putting up our EZ set pool this summer, but after a few hot weeks in May, Brad decided to pull it out to clean. We had to clean all the "gunk" that had accumulated over the winter and then dry it out. All the kids helped clean since they were excited about having something to cool off in . After the pool was clean it took about week before Brad had time to set it up.
Luke was not impressed that I wouldn't let him go outside to get in the half full pool (it was about 10pm!)
The pool is getting full! The picture is weird because I used some setting so you could see in the dark.

The first pool day!


Don't they look happy!



Unfortunately the kids had a little too much fun that first day and all got burnt. I did put sunscreen on all of them, but I never reapplied! Nelson got it the worst. Now it's been a week and they all have dark tans! I'm glad that we put up the pool. Now the weather needs to cool off a little bit because it is so hot that the pool is like a hot tub! I think the kids might get in again if we drop in a few bags of ice!

What an awesome pool! It looks liek it will be great for the kids. We have a smaller one--it is still pretty chilly because we keep getting rainy & cool days here. Have a great summer!

I guess in Texas you need an air conditioned pool. Nelson looks pretty brunt but I can't figure out why is neck isn't red. Did he have a really tanned neck?
