Here am I (five months pregnant), with Hannah, Kelly, Lindsey, and Christopher, walking out of the San Antonio temple after our new daughter was sealed to us for time and for all eternity during a special, sacred ceremony, this past Saturday afternoon. We were happy to have a wonderful group of guests in attendance with us, Kelly's two sisters, Debbie and Brenda, my sister, Julie, Kelly's mom and dad, my mom, my good friends Lorraine and Stewart, Carol and Rick, and one person from our ward, my buddy, Sue. Dinner later that night consisted of a feast at the Salt Lick in Driftwood, Texas, for some incredible pork ribs, cole slaw, and more.

Below, here's the future deep end--filled with dirty water for now. It's 6.5 feet deep.
They'll just cover all of this construction mess up with concrete and Sundeck.
Here's the view of the pool from the side garage door, next to my office.
Here's the beach area where you can step into the pool and get your feet wet in the area where it's really shadowy.

It is a good thing that you decided to start the process when you did, you will have a new pool just in time to beat the real summer heat.
I just got back last night, so I'll have to catch up on all the blog posts I missed. It's so good to be back!
