So it looks like we are going to get a fence after all. It's just going to be seriously downgraded to a chain link instead of wood. Very expensive wood, and vinyl is too much so chain link it is! Anyway, we worked it out and it will cost us about $900, if we do the labor ourselves, but we really need one to have a pool again this year (city ordinances and such). And WE HAVE to have a pool!
We also need the fence because the boys will not stay in the yard! They (well Kevin at least) start heading over to our neighbors yard because they have toys in their yard for their grandchildren. I am so tired of fighting with Kevin (and Patrick) about NOT going in that yard. A fence would fix that! And I talked to my neighbor about it so I don't think they are going to be upset about the fence going up. :)
Yesterday, the twins, John and I went down to visit a friend of mine and had a great time. We also went to Lowe's on our way home to get playsand and fertilizer -- Patrick and Kevin (mostly Pat) had a KIBBY in the store! I was so embarrassed! Their outburts of emotion these days is getting really awful -- terribles 2s are really upon us in the worst way. :( I am not looking forward to the next 1 1/2 years. Ho hum.
On a lighter note, Patrick LOVED the sand box so much that I could go up on the deck and light the grill, go in the house and get the hot dogs and hamburgers, and get the milk cups etc with him and John hanging out in the sand box. He DIDN'T MOVE ONCE! It was so cute how much he loved it. Kevin still needed a fence. ;-)

Sure! It's just a PVC sided 18' by 4' above ground but sure!
