My weekend surprise

My hubby is not big on presents or surprised but this weekend he did both in a big way. For the past month I have been harassing him to get a pool.We don't make big purchases without consulting the other so I've been in harassing/whining mode for weeks now to get him to agree. The first answer I got was after vacation so after vacation I went into overdrive. Then all I heard was wait a little longer. That usually means no so I was pretty bummed. 

Got up Sunday morning and wanted to go fishing. Daniel said he didn't feel like it but boy when his friend called he was up and running. I asked why he was calling before 8am and Daniel tells me "Just to check in" I didn't believe it. So when a little while later when Daniel goes outside "for a few minutes" and then drives off I hit the roof! I told the boys to go ahead and get ready and we'd just go fishing anyway. We get loaded up and Daniel and his friend return and I give him a talking too. Took boys fishing return a few hours later and Daniel tells me to come outside to check something out. I think he's probablly showing off something in the mancave so imagine my shock to see this!!! 


Come to find out he bought this days before we went on vacation and had taken it to his friend's house to hide! His reasoning was if he'd brought it home I'd want it up and it would be green when we got home. Why he waited another week he didn't say. I think he might have enjoyed my harrassing/whinning while knowing he already had one stashed somewhere. 
The kids were as excited as I was. 

Billy couldn't even wait for it to fill up. 

When asked if it worth me gripping at me that morning Daniel says yes the shocked look on my face was worth it. I think I was shocked enough I stuttered for about an hour. For a change he was right and I was wrong. LOL
