Evergreen (non-pine) Options for Privacy (Z5)??

We moved into a new home last fall that has a very open back fence with our neighbors. We'd like to plant some bushes for privacy, but we are not big fans of pines. The area gets morning sun, some afternoon shade, and is slightly sloped with a clay mix soil. The fence line is about 130 feet. We'd be okay with mixing shrub and tree varieties and we need at least some of them for winter privacy too. Some should grow quickly if possible. We do have dogs and small children, so thorns and berries are probably not a good idea. I love to garden, so blooms are a bonus!

I can't wait to hear all your recommendations! Thank you all.
