Fencers

The Entire month of April was dedicated to putting up a vinyl fence on the corner side of our house.  Wow, it sure was alot more work than we anticipated, but we are sure glad that we did it!   We went the "cheaper" route and did it ourselves, with plenty of help from our awesome neighbors.  We had to plan it out (took us a whole day), dig holes, discover that our sprinklers were in the way, decide to do a concrete mow strip, dig a trench, pour mow strip concrete, set posts (alot of leveling involved), cut panels/rails, install panels/rails,  install 2 gates, and finally put the post caps on!  Our kids were getting pretty sick of hearing that we were busy doing the fence.  Avery even talked in his sleep about building a fence...

 Here is a photo of Avery & his cousins in the post holes.  Its just like one of Amanda's brothers in post holes when they were little.  The grass that is cut out in front of them was going to be our garden (we had someone come cut and haul it away for free).  However, we changed our mind and moved the garden along the road side of the fence (instead of the south side).  We are a little fickle like that :-)
