The After Photo!

So here it is! Finally the after photo for all Scott's work. He had to run electrical, etc. etc. for our new toy!! Our family purchased a Hot Tub and I finally took a photo of the family enjoying it last night. Yes, we are aware that children can't go in hot tubs...so it was only 95 degrees like a warm bath. Not so much fun for Scott and I but great for the kids!! We purposely left the heat down yesterday so the kids could go in with us.

Scott has wanted a hot tub for years and over the past 2 years I have spent TONS of time in our jacuzzi in our bathroom. Recently my muscle pain has been so bad I've been in the tub every single night, just to be able to sleep I have to relax in hot water. This got us thinking a bit more seriously about it and we started looking on craigslist for hot tubs.

This brought us to this company that buys tubs, refurbishes them and then sells them. We are always for a great deal so this sounded great to us. Scott looked on their website at some options. Most were old tubs, but at least they were cheap. We stopped looking for a bit as we got busy with other things. Then on Jan 16th we decided just to drop by this place to check out what they had. They had JUST received this brand new 6 person hot tub from Costco 2 days earlier. A fork lift operator had run the fork lift through the side of the tub. So this company bought it since it was damaged--but never been used.

Guess what?? Scott found this tub online for $4400 MORE Than we paid!! We got a steal on this tub! The stereo face plate is broken and there is a patchjob on the inside where the forklift went through the wall. With the jets going you can't even see it. The side paneling doesn't match since they had to replace the paneling due to the damage, but again...its all cosmetic stuff. The great thing is this tub is AWESOME!!

It has some 70 jets!! All the seats have specialty functions and they are super deep! There are jets in the center raised area for your feet. One special seat even massages your neck (its a deep seat!) The kids enjoy the lights show from the lights you can change and there is a waterfall too. Seriously, this thing has so many bells and whistles!! We love having it and its so great that I can jump in here every night instead of filling up the bathtub. The jets are so much more powerful too!! Anyhow--we'll have to invite you over soon--if you live nearby---to try out our new toy! We feel really blessed to have found such a great deal on a brand new, only cosmetically damaged, hot tub!

Now on to better health and less sore muscles!! =)
