Yay - can you say "Epic last weekend of summer" Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok I just got caught up on your build...I have been so focused on mine that i havent been reading your threads (Its kinda fun that way as it seems like it goes so fast). Your decking is beautiful and your finish turned out beautiful. Can you get in yet? Oh girl - i still feel like i am dreaming...

The only thing i would add is the ability to change the colors is super cool and the Cobalt Blue in the pool and Caribbean Blue in the spa is very pretty! Not only do LEDs last longer and take less electricity (I think) its also an ambiance thing. To me its like having dimmers in your house -...

Thanks Kim and Lisa! Wow Lisa - Such a compliment - I have to say its my favorite too! Today, we get to see what it looks like with a thunderstorm and its still pretty!

Excited to see what happens today - I agree with the above - Say goodbye to mud and dirt and hello to a nice deck to walk around your pool!

Thanks Jen - we have enjoyed it but yes we are ready for the PB to turn us loose on taking care of it! I have been brushing it twice a day - for those of you who haven't done this yet - let me tell you - it's a workout! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ha! Yes, Jamie that will always make me feel like my pool is clear and blue!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Landscaping is going in...

Just my two cents...i like #2 and #3 the best...We purchased our wicker patio set about 6 years ago and they still look brand new. I have replaced the cushion fabric once with Sunbrella fabric and it has held up great. I am considering ordering new sunbrella fabric for all cushions only because...

This was yesterday morning...Today there are 20 people in my backyard - we have Landscapers and Outdoor Kitchen Builders back there -

Thanks everyone - We love it too! We literally swam from sun up to well into the night - You should have seen us yesterday we were skimming the bottom of the pool with two fridge magnets as we kept finding these small metal wire bristles everywhere. I assume the pebble guys must have used an...

Spool - would love to see a pic Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Morning of Day 3 - Yes my little one woke me up at 730 to say Lets go Swimming: Here is my water on Day 3 [

Oh my so sorry friends we have been enjoying the water - Here are some pics - first day in the water was Friday around 4:00 - Water was super clear and there was nothing in it...Saturday morning PB came by and said water looked good but we needed to start it up so he added some Muratic Acid and...

Pool school starts tomorrow! Haven't told the kids yet we can swim bc it is still too hot out there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

PB just came by and said have some fun - get in and swim tonight and he will be by in the morning to add some chemicals to the pool. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We are about 5 inches from the waterline tile...PB just called and said put one of the hoses into the spa....getting closer!

Utility guys are here this morning marking all the lines again - getting ready for landscapers on Monday! Pool is still filling...Cant wait till we can add the hoses to the spa to fill up. One more of the Sunrise this morning - this view is not going to get old!

So we went with Pearl Matrix as we liked the larger pebbles...Satin Matrix is the same thing but has smaller pebbles (many claim will be softer and smoother) - Yet to be determined by us. To be honest Jamie i was really scared once they put it in as i was scared it was going to be too light. I...

Jamie are you talking about the Pebble - if so it is Wet Edge New Zealand Blue (with 3 bags of Abalone Shells added to the mix to give it a sparkle)

Excited this morning...We almost have a full pool! at 7 am this morning we are just above the second step What a beautiful sunrise -

I don't know Marla if rain is a good thing or bad thing - looks clear here - we just hit the wall of the shallow end. It looks beautiful so far - can't wait to wake up in the morning and see how far it has gotten! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes Kim they did a great job smoothing it out but i have to say the coolest thing to watch was them hosing in the Muratic Acid all over the walls. If I was to stand in the deep end right now (which i know is a big no-no and i wont) i would say that the water would be mid calf and its only been 1...

Getting it ready Pebble after the acid wash and spraydown First hose going in to start the fillup: second hose in just because we want to fill it up! Disregard the yellow stuff it was just the startup liquid they added: Framing of our outdoor kitchen is going in: Now we wait.....

They have just finished the acid wash and powerwash...Almost ready to start filling!!!!

Ok so i found out that thy guys who come by to acid wash the pebble will do any sanding necessary to make it smooth. They are here and getting started! The outdoor kitchen is also starting today - the cabinet builder is here and beginning the layout and build as well as our landscaper came by...

I know tomorrow they are going to acid wash but we are noticing some pretty rough spots in the spa - doesn't look like it will be too comfortable to sit on - does anyone know if the acid wash will take care of those rough spots? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Day one of Pebble complete - tomorrow they will come and acid wash and then its time to fill up this hole! ]

For your pebble pleasure:

Their here - Its Pebble Day!!!! So I went out to check on the color and they had the wrong color - no fault to them it was our original choice of Midnight Ocean. I personally love the Midnight Ocean but after reading so many posts about the temperature difference of 4-7 degrees we decided to go...
