Picket fence and path

The day we got the keys to our house we had some friends over and got take out from Thai Toms. It's one of those tiny hole in the wall places where spicy #3 out of 5 will make you sweat. Well that day, Po snuck out the front door and ran into the road (it's a busy street-there's a couple bus lines) . Also that day, we decided that putting up a picket fence in the yard was a priority.

Fast forward one month and here's the fence that Nick made with his who flew in from Big Bear, CA. Nick made the plans on a leftover piece of wood and went from there.

My mom came over from across the Sound and helped us paint it white.

When I went out of town for a week, Nick surprised me and put up an adorable stone path. He got the stones from a wholesale place in Woodenville.

Thanks to Nick's Grandparents who helped fund the fence. It adds so much character (& safety) to our home!
