The Fam

Family shot while back at Ma and Pa "R" this summer.















All the grandkids at grandma's house.

It is DONE!!!!!

We finally finished the fence today. What a chore! After 2 months with a variety of interruptions and trips, we finally completed it today. By the way, just for the record... I hate projects like this. Yes, I feel good about doing it, and yes it looks nice, and YES, we saved thousands by doing it ourselves, but good grief. I tried my hand at making a gate all by myself. Well, it got done, but I'm not so sure how long it's going to last. It's pretty big and heavy. The dogs are absolutely thrilled to be free now in the yard. They are very excited.

That Darn Ankle!

I has been nearly 3 weeks, and while I am MUCH better, and my ankle feels better, I'm still VERY limited in range and the ability to negotiate uneven surfaces. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I mean, I am a PT for heaven's sake! Oh well! I tried jogging on the treadmill a bit this week. It went ok, but still sore!

Fence Progress...

Slow Progess occuring...after a week of vacation, and then being laid up for a week with a sprained ankle, we finally got some work on the fence done. Whew.
















The south side all done. YEAH!





Bailey and her "Project" ...She sat all day nailing the odds and ends togthter after they were cut off. She was actually VERY good help for Mom and Dad.

Dad carrying fence pickets. It was close to 100 degrees by noon. It was VERY hot today! Ended up getting up to 108 by 2:00pm.
