Our Pool!

We are getting a pool!  This morning the men showed up with the truck to dig the hole!  It was very exciting.  I will try to get lots of pictures and describe their progress.  Hopefully we'll be swimming by my birthday!!

Here's what the patio looked like before they arrived:

We'd (and when I say "we" I mean Will, Dad, and Uncle Bobby) moved the hot tub and other stuff over the weekend.  Yesterday the girls and I dug up the strawberries and cucumbers we had growing in the garden and transplanted them into pots.

Bailey was very excited to see the tractor being unloaded.

After they drove the equipment around to the back yard, they started breaking up the patio, which was pretty scary stuff!! They basically used the backhoe to pick it up, then dropped it a bunch of times so it would break into pieces.

I left to get Emmy from school and to go to the zoo, and when we got home around 4 pm, we saw this:

And here is the view from my back door right now!
