DURING Fence Pictures

No more nasty fence. These are the metal poles (we did have wood which were rotted) we put in.
Zach working hard to get old post out. This was alot harder work then I thought.

BEFORE fence pictures


Side fence area with wood pieces trying to hold it together. The gate to the dog run will not even close anymore.

Closer view.
Close up to show how rotted everything was.

Yea for support beams holding our fence up. The neighbors also had one on the other side.
You can see where the creek just washes away the dirt. The post and fence are helping keep some dirt in. So we are leaving the old fence and putting the new fence in front of it. The water came all the way up to the retaining wall this week.
When we started to take down the old fence everything just fell down (dirt). This is why we can't put the fence back in the same place our old fence was.
I think bugs were holding most of our fence together.

random stuff

Well it looks like we are putting up our new fence this weekend. Luckily our neighbors have agreed to pay for half of what their side will cost.

We have had so much rain recently. The creek behind our fence in the backyard was all the way up to the retaining wall. We even had fish in our backyard!!! CRAZY!

We have had 3 tornado sirens weather in the last 2 weeks. It seems like Arlington always gets the bad weather. Nothing too bad at our house but the youth house at the church has a tree limb on the roof.

YEA I am off today! Arlington gets Cinco de Mayo off from school. Isn't that cool!
