Backyard Project: Fence

I am happy to report that we now have a backyard fence!! :)

 It has been on our to-do list for a few years and we can finally move on to other projects. Yay! Earlier in the week, John bought all of the fence posts and materials needed so when the time came, he was ready to get it done. It's been kind of tricky here though. Lightning and thunderstorms sort of control when we can get stuff done outside. Anytime it was clear, he was out there doing something.

Us and our neighbors decided to do this backyard fence project at the same time. John was graciously able to get military discount through Lowes on all of the material so it was a good deal! It has definitely been a team effort - John, his good friend, and our neighbor put in many hours of labor. And I put in many hours of labor tending to our kids while he was hard at work. Today being Memorial Day, all of them had the day off and were able to get the job finished. They did an awesome job!

Up next: the backyard patio.

Stay tuned!

But before I go, here are some pictures of the backyard fence project...
