It was so hot the past few weeks, that Chris went out and bought a big pool that all of us could go in and enjoy, and get out of the heat. We were all very excited, especially Madison.
As you can see, she was all ready to go in her little life-jacket. She thought it was so cool that it was so big. Once it filled up a bit more though she got a little scared, I think it was a bit overwhelming for her.
It took over 3,000 gallons to fill the pool up. So, by the time it was filled to the top, it was dark, and starting to get cool out, so we went in for the night, looking forward to the next day to where we could all get in and swim. Well, later that night, my mom came in to tell us that the backyard was flooded. Chris went outside, and found that there was a huge rip in the bottom of the pool. Agh, what a nightmare! Chris had to take it back to K-mart the next day, at least we got our money back. Not looking forward to the water bill though!

Oh man Brenda that sucks. I hate when that stuff happens. I can only imagine what the backyard looked like after that. Did you end up getting another pool? I made Mike run out and get one for Carter and myself when we had a heatwave. Not that big though, just a kiddie pool that we could all sit in.LOL Sorry you didn't get much of a chance to enjoy it, but good thing they gave you your money back. I hate when they will only give you store credit.

Ugh. That is such a bummer! I would have been soooo mad after spending all that time setting it up to have that happen! And the water. That is totally crappy. Oh well.....
