Fence Project



We have been pretty busy for the past 11 days! My dear Dad came down on Friday the 2oth. We had been planning this day for a long time and were very excited to have him come and replace our fence. Michael took the week off and the project began, oh as soon as my Dad got out of his car Friday afternoon. To make a long story short this was a HUGE project. My Dad does beautiful work and everything is done very well. We really had no idea that it would literally take 11 days with really no down time except for the night that it thundered and rained but we all decided it was God's way of saying we needed to rest that night. We are so very happy with the finished product. We finished all the tidbits last night by about 9 p.m and then my Dad went home today after spending some time with the boys because let's just say it was very hard for them to have Papa here and have him be so busy. They wanted to crawl all over him in the evenings but he was so tired and sore that it was hard. He was a trooper though and would read to them and such. We are so thankful to Dad for what he has done for us we could never have done it without him. I pray for you rest and relaxation Dad because you deserve it. We will spend the rest of the week just catching up with the many tasks that have taken a backseat because of our project and then enjoy a relaxing weekend. Hope you are all enjoying your summer.

The good news is that you and Michael can run around naked in your backyard and no one will see....
