We have GRASS!!

We finished September with a bang!!! After all the prep and work over the past month, we were finally ready to put down the sod on our yard!

The sod truck delivered about 15 pallets of sod the afternoon of the 30th. That's a lot of sod!



That evening, we hosted a sod party! We invited anyone who was available to come and help us lay down the sod and in return they got pizza and drinks! We had a great turnout (family, friends, neighbors, church members) and by 5:30, they were already going on the front yard.

I was in charge of making sure there were cold drinks, available pizza and keeping the kids out of the way. There was a whole "gaggle" (as Clay calls them) of girls that would show up to check on the progress. The kids had fun watching them work and eating pizza!









They made quick work of the front and side yards and before we knew it, the back was almost done! I think it took them about two hours from start to finish and that was a lot of grass! It looks fantastic! It felt so great to stand out on our porch and look out at grass instead of dirt! It even makes it feel cooler out there!






Here is the final product the morning after! Looking soooooo good!!!


Thanks to everyone who came to help us!!! We really appreciate it!
