A Great Helper

We have been trying to get this pool set up for over a week now. It has been a bit of a hassle, but it is coming along. Last night, Sadie decided she was going to help us out! We were in the backyard and all of a sudden Sadie made a big leap into the pool - it is still low enough for her to get in! We laughed pretty hard and took some pics and a little video of her frolicking in the water. She is too darn cute!

I *heart* Freecycle!

So, another fun event last weekend was our huge score on Freecycle! We got a pool for FREE!!! It is one of those soft sided blue pools with the "blow up" ring on the top. It came complete with the ladder and pump. This thing is in pristine condition. All we had to do was borrow my dad's truck and go get it. It is 3 feet deep and 15 feet in circumference. Perfect for setting up in the backyard to float around in and catch some sun!

If you don't know about freecycle, go check it out at www.freecycle.org. Youhave to sign up for a town (or two) that you want messages from and you get a list of emails each day regarding what people are giving away. People also list things they want. We are giving back to freecycle by giving some baby gates to someone who needs them. It really is a great thing!
