Finally...

We got a fence!!! Kevin and I have wanted a fence since we moved here 4 years ago and we were finally able to do it.

Here is what my backyard looked like before:

See how wide open it is? Not many people on our street have a fence, so all of our backyards just blend together. It wasn't very much fun for me to take my kids outside to play because all I ended up doing was chasing them around to keep them in our yard.



Here it is now:
So much better! I am actually excited for summer to come now and we can play outside. I will get to relax and enjoy being outside, rather than feeling like I am running a marathon keeping track of my kids.

Congratulations on the fence! Sounds like you were getting good exercise with it! Ha, ha. You have such a big yard. I am totally jealous. :)

Yay for a new fence. I wish we could get a fence this year. Seems like lots of people are getting fences put in this spring. Enjoy it.

Congrats on the Pregnancy and the new fence. I will be moving home in May. We can hang out now sometimes. Yay.

I like having a fence because it keeps the neighborhood riffraff out! I'm the mean lady in the neighborhood as you can tell.

Yay! I remember how excited I was when we got our fence, too! It was sooo nice to have our own space -- not to mention no more dog poo all over our yard! :)
