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!

MORE PICTURES

We got some new pictures of Hailey Grace!

SO CUTE!

I stole this from Coralyn's post but I wanted to share it with my side of the family. Isn't that the cutest giggle ever!!!

Fence.....anyone want to help us put up our new fence next weekend. Seems like Daisy doesn't like our yard so she decided to JUMP over the fence!!!! We knew we needed a new fence but now we need to get it put up sooner rather than later!!!

FINISHED....almost

Well last night was my last night of classes for my Master's. I am so relieved that it is almost over. I still have 3 major projects to turn in but at least I don't have to go to class anymore! Now just the decision to make if I want to keep on going to get my Masters in Education or not!!!

NEW ADDITION

Hailey Grace was born Friday at 12:14 weighing in at 7 pounds. Mommy and Daddy (Alane and Philip) are doing great!!!

Now we have 3 nieces and 1 nephew. We love being able to be Aunt Benita and Uncle Zach!!!

The bottom picture is big brother Jachin holding Hailey at the hospital. He's doing a good job except for that random hand in the face.

MAVS GAME

Benita and I got to go to a Dallas Mavericks game with my mom and her work. The game was a lot of fun. We all had to take altitude sickness pills because our seats were so high. None the less, it was a lot of fun!

Nosebleeds !

Look, Dirk!

Okay so I didn't do so good on posting to the blog but o well!

I have started training for The Three Day. So far the most I have walked in one day was 7 miles. I am mainly just walking 3 miles 3 times a week. Time to start adding more miles. My thing is trying to find the time to walk.


Here is a picture of our team for Race for the Cure. It is only a 5K walk. Dad and Susanne walked with us! That was neat!!
So we will just have to see if I can keep posting on this thing! :)

Well here we are trying to have a family website. We did make it private though so not everyone in the world can see our lovely family! :) More pictures coming soon.
