With Spring arriving and a it raining a bit less, it's time for the kids to be outside!

Julia, though, wants to run off and play with the big kids.
While they're all really nice kids, she's not much of a basketball player, yet.
Plus she has a tendency to want to just run off wherever.

So, with the help of my amazing partner in crime, we have built phase 1 of the Keep Julia Safe & Entertained Project.

I bought a pre-made picket fence gate, but when I got it home, it was about four inches too short. So we made one to span the walkway.



Then it was time for swim lessons, and we had used one of the support boards for the fence part for the gate which would require a trip to Lowe's.

Today, after work and the necessary stop at Lowe's, we pieced together the fence section.



I think this should be long enough for now. Julia isn't interested in the retaining wall edge of the yard.
Well, yet...
