Daddy is #1!!!

We originally had plans to go camping and fishing this weekend but had to cancel due to our pump breaking which means no water. Marc finally got the pump fixed Saturday afternoon (after much frustration...it was a process). By the time he went to Home Depot, Lowe's, Ziggy's and spoke to a few plumbers, he found himself at Walmart. Why Walmart? Well, to purchase this of course...
A BIG POOL!!! Marc has wanted one of these pools for a while and after a few hard days of pump problems, he finally decided he deserved this and made the purchase. This pool is 16 ft around and 42 inches deep. The kids were so excited!

It took a while to get it full (it actually never did get full yesterday). Marcus was really good at making sure the water was on and also made sure his sisters were plenty wet. It takes a really long time to fill this pool! Let's just say the new pump got a pretty good workout.

We are all so excited to use the pool. Unfortunately the 90 degree weather from yesterday turned into 50 and very rainy today so we'll just have to wait (believe me, that is a hard wait for three little ones in the house...they keep begging to use it today, but I think we've finally convinced them it is just too cold).

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!
