Having a very active two year old, I insisted on building a fence in the front yard so he can play outside without me worrying about him running into the street. It's been quite a project but is looking so good! I can't wait to see it completed. Next we will add sprinklers and sod. I am so excited!
Mr. Perry has been so awesome helping us along the way. Weekend after weekend.
Lincoln has loved "helping" along the way. He goes around with his toy drill and pushes his tractors around picking up rocks and dirt. It's a big job for this little boy.
Vance and I just hang out inside or sit on the porch and watch the boys work away. We make them food, grab water, and cheer them on.
When Lowe's brought the supplies to us Lincoln could NOT contain his excitement. He jumped and squealed. He ran in circles and watched in awe as the forklift unloaded the goods off the truck.
Vance on the other hand was a little bothered by all the noise trying to wake him up.
Digging the postholes took these poor guys all day. 7 am -10 pm. They were exhausted. We even rented a huge post hole digging machine but it hardly moved through the river rocks and clay-like dirt. We called in some reinforcements around 5 pm when Mr. Perry and Sheehan had completely lost their grip and strength.
Sheehan performed some circus tricks as he stood on top of the post hole digger to add weight and break through the dirt.
Meanwhile....Lys and I decided to put highlights in my hair. Lys has never bleached hair before but does a great job dying all of our hair so we thought we'd experiment. She did a great job!
Both my hair and the fence are coming along nicely!
