Starting the to-do list!

The one thing we love most about having a house is having a backyard. Sora enjoys this also... too much! the dogs next door and Sora go at it on either side of the fence like maniacs. They bark and growl and claw at the fence and stare each other down. Because of this Joe and I have been walking Sora... in the backyard on a leash so he will go potty and not go crazy! THIS SUCKS FOR US! we thought "if only Sora and those dogs couldn't see each other.. maybe they would calm down..." We didn't plan to put up another set of planks onto the fence until spring- but the dogs on the other side of the fence broke a few planks as they were body slamming it the other day. boo....

So today it was about 50 degrees and relatively sunny, so we decided to try and get it done. Well we didn't get it DONE but we sure got a good start! Sora looked really confused as he watched us drill the screws in and put up new boards staggering the old ones! no peaking now for him!!

Here are some Pictures:




The Fence wasn't ugly- but it definitely didn't provide much privacy.




There was soooo much of this. we could only fit 80 of these planks in the car. we will have to go back tomorrow to get more.




CLOSE UP! I have to say the fence looks awesome now!




We got halfway done with this side (we didn't actually get started until about 330... after and hour and half it was FREEZING OUTSIDE. we had to call it quits for tonight.



Looks good though right?!?!?!?
