Roy and I were out of school Memorial Day. We spent the day dividing monkey grass that has overtaken a flower bed and transplanted it into our small beds along the pool. Our neighbors gave us some Hibiscus plants last year and as you can see, they have grown. I just hope they bloom this year!
Roy thought the pump to the pool was "burnt up", but turns out he took it apart and gave it a good turn and we were back in business - without having to spend any money! That's what I"M talkin' 'bout!!!!
We (or Roy would say HE) worked on it that weekend and it's almost there. We still have some pH levels to contend with, but the kids are enjoying it anyway!
Although it takes a lot of work, it really is nice to have and the kids really enjoy it. We've rigged up our stereo so we can have some tunes while we are outside. Rylee loves being outside so it's nice to get it to where we will enjoy spending our time out there. She'll have us living out there all summer anyway! By the way, you can see a small rose bush in one of the pictures - that is the rose bush Rylee gave me last year for Mother's Day. It's so pretty. We moved it to another place in the flower bed so I could add some herbs. I hope we didn't mess up by moving it.
