Visions of Sugar Plums, all in my head....

Well kinda, sorta. This weekend was crazy, and I'm wicked tired this morning. We OFFICIALLY HAVE A 5th GRADER IN THE HOUSE. Whoot Whoot.

With the temperature getting hotter with each day, we are hard at work in getting the backyard ready for the pool.

Finally soon, there will be no more jungle where cats give birth to their kittens and BF's think they are being attacked by Possums only to be kittens. Most importantly, no more staring at these tall overgrown weeds, that consume the precious grounds that is our backyard.


Soon, inside the square you see below will be our POOL!





The BF used a demo hammer to dig the holes for the posts of what soon will be our new deck.
He sweated his Ba**s off on Saturday mixing concrete, measuring and lining up the posts.

It took 9 60lb bags of cement for the 6 posts you see here. We have a ton more holes to dig and posts to put in place.

Hopefully the pool and deck will be completed bu JULY.

Oooh cool! Ever since hubby opened up our pool in April, and since we've had 90 degree weather for a while now, my boys have been swimming every day. Can't wait to see the finished product!

Oh man, having your own personal pool to use whenever you want sounds like an awesome idea right now. I wish I had the room!
