Our Saturday

11 May 2009

Today lots got done around our homestead.  A friend and my parents came over to help the hubby with rebuilding a fence that blew down with Ike. Here is the result at the end of the day. The posts are in, now we are ready for pickets.

While the boys did that, mom and I painted our swing. My dad made it for me and gave it to us for Christmas a few years ago. I stained it originally, but when we lived in Waco, it hung in our tree, and the rain and bird poo caused it to peel, despite my application of Thompson’s weatherproofing stuff. So I sanded it and finally after like 6 months, managed to repaint it. I am excited about having it back. I always had a swing growing up and we had a special swing at Baylor.
