I love craigslist

Boy can you save money if you try!
We SCORED today.  I was fed up with the heat, and inability to cool off, so I headed to town with the girls, set out to buy a pool.  $120 would have gotten us a 12'x30"pool... no, not spending that much.
Bought a small pool for $50, with the intent to go home, and look online, and see what $50 could get us.
Well, 2 hours later, it got us a 16'x36" pool, with ladder, filter, and TONS of water toys.
Plus, the house I got it from was having a garage sale.  We also got 2 pogo sticks for $5 each (retails for $85 each), and a rip stick for $10 (retails for $67).
Did I mention that I LOVE craigslist?


 so excited.  It's just filling up, and they couldn't resist sitting in it.






"how do you like the pool?"... 2 thumbs up

Andrew intent on learning how to rip-stick. 


 The play house wall.  The kids drew pictures, I painted them, and then added some hand prints.

  
their foot prints that lead to where the ladder will be.
 
 Just needs the roofing material on the porch, and a coat of paint, and the outside is done!
It's a great suite for when the parents come to town don't you think? ;)
