We have been busyyyyyy around here, getting ready for summer! Our pool needed some TLC!!
We wanted, wait, NEEDED to repaint and decided to put a new border of tile along the top too. Our old tile was sooooooo dated!! And of course, we were going to do all the work ourselves. (too keep costs down...)
So Dan got busy!! I was soooooo impressed when he drained the pool!!! I told Dan how awesome he was and his response was "It is easy to tear something down, the hard part is building it back up". I thought those were VERY wise words!! 
At first we thought we would just drain the pool, rinse it with acid and repaint...but then Dan started getting all this advice about how he needed to SAND the pool first to remove the old paint. BUMMER! He got a few quotes on "sandblasting and refinishing the pool" and needless to say, Dan rented the sandblaster and did it HIMSELF!! I never in a million years thought I would have my husband in the backyard SANDBLASTING! It was quite the sight!!! Many times I thought we were "in over our heads" with this project....but with A LOT of hard work from Dan, the project is finished and we are enjoying the benefits~ THANK YOU hunny! ♥♥♥
We've also been working on the yard. THAT is still a work in progress!! (but nothing a little water won't help!!) ☺
We are officially READY FOR SUMMER!!!
