End of Summer Sale


I found a backyard pool on clearance at Target for under $20 this week!
I'd been watching for one and this one was marked down so much I was excited!

Derek read the directions and went to work setting it up.

Cooper thought the process was fun... even before we added water:

Once we started the water he was splashing around. Then he slipped and fell:

He was soaked after that!

The water was cold so he got out to warm up a little:

Then went back to playing in the water... or drinking it!

He had fun!

It's ready for swimming... but by then it was time for bed.


:::The Next Day:::
Cooper is ready to try out the new pool!

Daddy helped him get in:

He likes it!



I think Derek is enjoying the pool too! :)

  1. I've been watching for a post because I forgot to look in the backyard this morning.

    Looks so fun, we'll be back up :)

    Did not expect that last picture. HILARIOUS!

  2. Ha, Derek has always had to swim in a pool too small for him! Dale has a filter, etc. for you guys if you want it. He got a bigger one for our pool this year.

  4. We put a pool up this year as well. I am just shocked at how well the boys are swimming without lessons! I am not a water lover so this is good. That last picture is FUNNY!
