The Greatest Blow-Up Pool in the World


My mother saw a pool in the catalog. It said allow up to 6 weeks for delivery. Well, she wanted Lon to have a great play pool for his birthday. It came in 6 days. It is the greatest blow up pool EVER! Today it was warm, tomorrow and at least till the end of the week, it is going to get HOTTER! We set it up today. I am so thrilled we also go the electric air pump. Without that, it would have taken years to blow up. This, of course, is not the coolest pool, this is last year's pool. Lon is wants to play in the water!! NOW! He does not realize that the pile of plastic on our dining room table is a pool.













okay, this looks promising, but flat.












Lon plays with the rings while the pool blows up. I blew up the rings myself, not with the pump. I did something!











Lon explores the pool, while dry.













BASKETBALL!!!








We filled up the pool, had lunch went for a walk. Basically waiting for the water to warm up. However, this plan was foiled by the fact that where I put the pool was now in the shade. Rats, so we emptied the pool, had a Popsicle, and we started to refill it. This was FUN!






We had a bit of wind and the arch kept blowing off so I just took it off for now. The slide can also be removed, but the basketball hoop, palm trees and rings thingys can not. Which is good.











The frog attaches with Velcro to the side of the pool and the hose can be attached to him. He sprays water! Very fun! Without the hose it can just be a pool toy. Lon likes it as a pool toy. The water spray will be much appreciated the hotter it gets.


Another Popsicle!

Telling Daddy about the pool! SO COOL.
