Pool Time


Nolan came downstairs in a swimming suit as a subtle hint: "Hey, Mom and Dad - fill up the pool!"


We bought an Intex metal frame pool for $200 at Big Lots last year. We pulled it out of the basement and started the set-up process.


Poor Nolan could hardly stand the wait. Actually, he couldn't stand the wait. Within a few minutes, he was in the pool. So was Matt.




Of course, we filled the pool up to about 2/3 final volume and realized the pool wasn't as level as we needed it to be. Intex pools require a really level surface for safety, so we emptied the pool so we could really get the ground level. The boys didn't mind: pool filling, part 2 was just as fun as the first time around!

The second fill-up. This time it was really level!
