The Fence





Here are some pics of our fence. Josh is putting up a new one because Ike took down the old one. He had 150ft to put back up. He has completed one side that backs up to the neighbors house. He is currently working on the back fence that goes up against the ditch. I will be glad when this fence is back up because the kids like to play outside. Mommy also likes the kids to play outside and let's just say playing by a ditch filled with snakes is not what I consider safe! So props to my husband for doing such a great job. Madi also let him know he was working hard. The other night she walked outside and said "great job dad!" It was all on her own. It was so sweet to see her compliment him in such a loving way. While he was doing this Angie and I took the kids to chick fil a. Funny stories happen there and today was no exception. It all started when I went to order food to go for Josh. I was waiting for my order and Angie brought Madi out to me. She had an accident in the playground. She was crying about how she "tee teed" her pants. She proceeded to pull them down in front of the whole restaurant. Abi was also next to us because she was having a fit I was not with her. Abi threw herself down on the floor right in the middle of the pee Madi had tracked to the front. Angie is trying to bend down with Brady on her hip and pick up my 16 month old throwing a fit. Madi is standing there crying with her pants to her ankles while people laugh. And what was I doing? Trying not to fall on the floor from laughing. It was actually very funny because it was so crazy. Sometimes if you don't laugh you might just cry.

He should do fencing (the kind without swords) while he is in school! I know that at least half of my neighborhood STILL doesent have a fence and mine looks fantastic! YEAH! Thanks for letting him spend all of that time helping us! I will return the favor anytime you need anything! : )
