All in a day's work



Yeah! We finally have a front yard! We started on Friday doing all of the prep work on the dirt. Saturday morning at 7:00 (who does that?) we started trenching for the sprinkling system and the machine wouldn't work. It was so frustrating. Thanks to an amazing neighbor were able to get it done. Then it was onto the grass. My in-laws are adding on to their house and my mother in law didn't want to just rip out her grass and have it die, so she suggested we have it. So we rented a sod cutter and went to work. It all went okay except we totally missed out on the cornfest. Oh well, there's always next year. Thanks to Cletus, Karen, Roy, Kaden, Cooper, Callen and of course Kelby and Max.

It looks GREAT! Good job for getting a before and after picture, I usually think of that too late. I think its cool that it worked out to use your in-laws grass that was going to go to waste. Does Addi like to touch it?

I wondered were your house was when we went up to the corn fest and I looked for you to so that explains why we did not see you. It would have been way more fun to see someone we knew. We were only there for about an hour and called it good...not so fun! Email me your phone# to daynalundin@yahoo.com so I can call you and make a BBQ date or something at one of our houses.
