Finally a house update!!

So it's been a while since there has been much to blog about with the house... Slowly a little more siding got put on here and there. And finally there was a huge push to finish the front with our scaffolding leaving. We scrambled to get as much done as we could but the day it was leaving we still had a couple more hours of work. Little did brother Sam know this when he called Keith up with some car questions and got roped in to help in exchange for Keith's car knowledge.

And with that (and aside from 3 peices) the front is done. I was about to have a heart attach seeing this and Anne you might have too, however we both aren't widows yet!

 

Then for Christmas my dad "gave" us a back yard fence! He would provide the lumber and do the work unless we wanted to do it ourselves, but with everything else we have going on we more than willingly took him up on his work. So as the new year has come in he has come over a few days a week for a few hours and started getting a fence up. What is nice is that from the papers we got in buying the house it gave the fence laws on set back from the road and we are actually able to increase our back yard quite a bit! Awesome. And we also can have our exsisting "fence" up while we put up the new one so we aren't completely open to the world. The house is looking like something and now we are baracading our selves in! When its all said in done the people who buy our house will have NO IDEA how horrible it was.

 

Putting in the posts.

Making them straight.

SOOOO much more room!!

Some latice type stuff on the inside to let a vine grow up easy or perhaps certain veggies.
