and she huffed, and she puffed, and she blew the fence down!

Mother nature did a number on our fence last week with all of her Strong winds. Thank goodness most of the fence had been replaced with previous windstorms and only a small section of old, week fence was left to come down.
Tommy is awaiting shoulder surgery and was hesitant to tear his "hanging by a thread" tendon any farther, so he asked two of Maggie's friends - Zack and Jacob - to come help him out.
He ended up with not only the boys, but also brothers, fathers and friends of those boys! One of the other neighborhood boys called to offer his services too, but we declined since he had more than enough help already.
Thanks to all who were willing to put in a little of their sweat and time to give Tommy a hand!

i snapped this picture out of my window because I didn't want to be the dorky wife taking pictures while the men tried to work - but I really wanted a picture!

Wow, I had no idea that your fence came down with the storm. It was pretty wicked! Awesome that your friends helped you out!
