Pool

oh course the Barrett's decide to put up their new pool in the rain, why not:)



finishing putting up the wall for the pool









Thom carried all the edge piece outside then Beth got the glory by them to Grandad





last peice!












1st time in the pool, too cold!





still too cold!











The pool was finally the perfect tempature, then we had to drain it due to a slow leak. Luckly we got a new liner with no hassels and Goni and Dave came over again to help set it up!
A few days later after we knew there was no leak this time Jeff set up the solar pannels and the pool heated up to 26C, turns out that is perfect for our family. Amazingly the kids still stay in so long their lips turn blue and they come out teeth chattering!










1st time having guests over in the pool






Last swim -unless, summer comes back!





Oscar??

We were at the Bulk Barn getting supplies for Ava's awesome birthday cake this week and Thommy was talking to the clerk.
Beth went from sobbing to ecstatic because I finally pd for the chocolate and the kids both got some. Thommy explained to the clerk that this baby (as he pointed to Beth) is called 'Baby Beth'. The clerk then asked Thom what his name was which of course he said 'Thomas the Tank Engine', then he walked up to my belly and pointed to it and said 'this baby is called Ol.... Ol.... Mama what is this baby called?' before I could answer he goes 'oh yeah I know, This baby is called Oscar!'

Oscar, really now, I dont think so! but I was chuckling and the clerk, she seemed to believe him!
