Nora's backyard pool

07 July 2010

We are getting an in-ground pool later this summer.  Our install date keeps getting pushed later and later so we decided to get a little baby pool; just to get by for the next month or two.  It's a cheap-o Walmart 8-foot'r.  Yes, we feel embarrassed and a lot like rednecks, but Nora's happy so we can live with the shame.  So, we filled it up on Monday and since it was 94 degrees outside today, it was plenty warm this evening.  Jaime and Nora took the maiden dip tonight and I filmed (obviously).  Tomorrow I'm going in. 

It's so fun to see Nora swimming.  We can't get enough and Nora can't either.  I posted a video in addition to the pictures.  You have to see the video - we almost lost Nora's head-float to our dog Bentley.  The dumb-ass tried to steal it right in front of us.  In his younger years, he was a formidable thief.  He could have plucked it out, carried it into the front yard, and eaten 1/2 of it, in the blink of an eye.  I'm not embellishing - he really was that good or bad or both kinda.  Sadly he's showing his age, and his botched attempt was just plain pitiful.

But YAY for bubbles! Quote
