Let's go fly a kite!

Today our ward held the 2nd annual (in five years) kite flying day! We all met at the park to fly our kites and eat a little lunch! It was a fun afternoon...even if there wasn't very much wind! The kids had a fun time flying their kites and playing on the playground.

We left early so Jeremy could come home and work on the fence. Since it IS his birthday I figured I should let him do what he wants...and he wants the fence up! It's coming along great! We have one whole side almost done!

Here is a pic of Jeremy's work station:

I'm so glad we have that bathtub he can use as a saw horse!

We are now trying to plan out where we will put our garden! Wynnie and I watched a video on square foot gardening and while they were out "helping" Jeremy her and Hannah made this box for our garden. I'm pretty impressed at how well she listened and remembered!

Don't fence me in...I mean, DO...DO fence me in!!!

Work on the fence continues...and continues...one day we will be done...and we (and our stuff) will be safe from the outside world!







Jeremy is now working on the gate at the end of our driveway (that will one day lead to our garage...one day!)

Work on the fence continues...

and continues...and continues (someday we hope to be done with it!) Jeremy and I went out this morning (before it got too hot) and worked on the fence. You can actually start to see how nice it will look once we are finished (whenever that is.) Here some pictures so you can see our progress:

Here's the girls supervising the work (they are actually having their breakfast on the back porch!)

Here's Jeremy hard at work drilling and screwing the boards up to the fence.

Here's the girls and Jeremy standing by the one section we (almost) got done!

The missionaries also came by to help us with some yard work. We tilled up the park strip (this has be bothering Jeremy for quite some time now) and moved some of the dirt to the back. Here's some before and during pictures:
