Swimming time

For the past month the weather has been in the 80's sometimes hitting the 90's but our apartment complex wont open their pool until the end of this month. I think it is so lame. Why wouldn't you open your pool when it is super warm outside? This isn't just a fluke year either. Mississippi is like this every year! Anyway off my rant about our cheap apartment and not opening up their pool. The other day my friend and I decided that if they weren't going to open the pool then we were going to buy one ourselves. So we went to the store and got what we thought was a killer deal on a 12" pool and a hose... We were so excited about our finds as we went home and started to set everything up. We learned quickly why our "pool and hose" were such great deals. Turns out we had bought a 12" pool cover not a pool and a garden hose is not just a name of a hose but its really for the garden and has little holes all over it to spray the plants haha I wish so badly that Ross wasn't out there to see our huge fail in buying the wrong things. Don't worry our luck didn't stop there. BreeAnn was nice and took back our pool.. Cover.. and got an actual pool. The hose would didn't reach all the way out to the pool so every time we filled up the pool we had to fill up buckets and then dump them in the pool! Its a good thing we only needed a couple inches for our kids to play in. For a few days everything was perfect and we would go swimming all the time. Then our apartment complex, that wont open up their pool, told us that we couldn't have our own pool either!! I can't say we didn't see that coming but we thought we could get past them for a few weeks. Our luck they were cleaning out and showing apartments right by where we were swimming and we got caught within days. LAME!! Jackson thinking he's so cool with his sunglasses and in the pool
Jackson and Benson
Jackson loved to help us fill up the pool. Such a cute boy

  2. For real?? I thought any apartment wouldn't let you have one.. If Legacy lets you then everyone should lol Its so dumb. Its not like we are in the middle of a courtyard that tons of little kids could see the pool and want to swim. I live at the edge and only the jungle is there and we have no kids around us. Also we would empty the pool every night for safety! LAME
