When we bought our new house we knew we were going to have to put the ENTIRE yard in. In the beginning that was something that sort of appealed to us. We wanted to do it all ourselves. Well that thought has gone quickly and now we know what a real pain it is. We started with a dirt field and though the pictures do not really look like it we have made quite a bit of progress. First was the well. Now that we have a well we dont have to use city water to water the grass. Then came the sprinkler system. We knew we were doing sod so we knew we pretty much had to have a sprinkler system. We have outlined all of our landscaping and flower beds and Josh has 2 of the fours areas lined out and mulched off. Then came the trees. We have planted 2, although another will come after everything else is done. Our plans are to actually do all of the shrubs and decorative flowers/plants after the sod is down. We had planned to do the sod last weekend however due to all of the rain on Friday we were unable to do a final grade of the yard in order to actually lay it on Sat. UNFORTUNATELY we have to wait another week and a half on the sod. POO....oh well. Im getting a little sick of living in a dirt field so grass cannot come soon enough.
I am so ready for Kinsey to run and play in the yard......Patience I tell myself....Patience.
