What was it???

WHAT ON EARTH MADE THIS GUY LOOK LIKE THIS??? ALL SWEATY AND DIRTY????
Do you remember this??????
Did you guess right?? What is this project that my hubby was working on?? Is it a putting green??? Nope. Check it out!
It's a new Pool!!! I wanted one last year but waited too long...they were all sold out at the store! So, this year, I bought one in May, when it was still cold out!!

Yesterday, the boys decided that they couldn't wait any longer to get in....so they did....and by the look on Luke's face, IT WAS COLD!
But, they didn't care much....they played anyway....

Final note:: yes, the water is a greenish color. We filled up the pool with water from our hose, which took 2 days by the way, and the water has a lot of iron in it. Contrast the red in the water and the blue color on the bottom of the pool and we got green. Shouldn't it be purple?? you know, red and blue make purple???? Well, we have green. It will get better as the filter takes out the iron........ I don't think you will find me in the pool anytime soon....too cold and too many mosquitoes!!! Jill
