Yard Fencing

In North America I have noticed that many home owners don't put fence on their yard. I asked hubby about it and he just answered me that fencing is not that important. People can only enjoy their yard during summer time and the rests of the days not because of the cold weather. Anyway, speaking of fence, I decided to work on the fence of my parents place. I started it few days ago and it is almost done. I extended the gate and had demolished the old store which mom used a long time ago when she was having her mini-grocery store.

For the meantime we are staying on their territory with my kids since they continued their studies here. The fencing job in our province cost 300 Php per person. The contractor will do the piling of hallow blocks and other jobs. I am not happy with the performance of the contractor hired by my parents this time because he is very slow and because of what he showed I am having the thought of replacing him soon. Despite of that slow performance, I am still looking forward of seeing the better look of our fence as well as the new face of the gate.

Improve Your Home Security

Are you thinking about some home improvement work to boost your home’s market appeal? You may be looking to upgrade the kitchen or bathroom, but have you considered repairing or replacing the fencing? Improving your boundary wall or fence can be a quick, simple and highly cost effective way to change the appearance of your home and – unlike renovation work inside the home - work on fencing will hardly interrupt your household routines.

A coat of paint can rejuvenate a tired, shabby fence in next to no time. If existing fencing has been constructed in a style that does little to complement the architectural features of your home, this is an ideal opportunity to create a fence that provides a more integrated look. Building new fences and gates fitted with strong locks is likely to be considered favorably by your California home insurance provider who may offer premium discounts for the enhanced security; more importantly, improved fencing creates a more private, safer home for you and your family.

If your home is located in a noisy urban neighborhood or near a busy transport corridor, consider installing high fencing that incorporates acoustic panels. A fence of this type becomes an effective noise barrier around your home, deflecting and deadening intrusive sounds and creating a quiet, tranquil haven.

If you make significant changes to the fencing around your home, be sure to notify your insurer or agent and adjust your homeowners insurance coverage to reflect the value of the home improvements.

On Her School Uniform

Below are the images captured by me at the backstage during their search for Mr. and Miss Sportsfest 2011 which was held 2 days ago. My daughter is only 3 years old and this was her first time experience joining in such beauty event. She had her talent but she did not present it on stage. She had sports, gown and swim suit attire but where was she during the presentation? She was on the backstage because she did not feel being on the stage presenting. So sad! But I understand because she`s still young for that thing.

Anyway, here she is on her school uniform costume. She was contestant number 3. I took this picture right after I hear her refusal to be on the stage.
