Blockin' It

I included some sunset pics, because I sure love them!


These guys are amazing! They dug the trench for the foundation and poured the cement yesterday, and today, they have laid 350 feet of cinder blocks 6 feet high!
Getting close to finishing! The service road we are separating our back yard from.
Looking toward our house from the back.

LONG FENCE
Arizona should be known for their block fences, because there sure are a lot of them. We have joined the famous Arizona block wall/fence club, and officially got our first wall put up today. The wall runs along the back part of our property so we can have a barrier between our yard and a service road our neighbors like to use. We plan on putting up the rest of the fence around our house when we are sure we don't want to buy the lots on either side of us and block them in too. I am sooo happy to have a wall! It is beautiful, if walls can be beautiful. Ted suggested I paint it with the colors of the sunset, because they are so pretty here. We'll see, if time permits. Oh, and I did get the job I applied for! So, I official am a working woman...again. I am going to be selling wedding dresses at a store just five miles from where Ted works, called, I Do I Do Bridal. Wish me luck! I am so excited! I think that working with brides will give me lots of great writing ideas.

You've moved! I love Arizona and am trying to convince my husband that we need to move there too! I hope that you love it and know that you will be amazing at your new job!

The wall looks awesome! We need to come out and see it! I've been in a strong fight with bronchitis so when I'm in the thrill of health again we need to go ride!
