We decided to do it ourselves to try and save some money. It will be nice to have that money in the end but it sure was a lot of work (mainly for Clay and those that were helping him). We are so lucky to have such great neighbors and family who were willing to help us.

YARD!!!
The main reason we'd been so busy during the months of August and September was because we were really trying to get our yard finished up before the weather got cold.

We started out with a yard full of weeds!!! Weeds that were taller than Will in some places! We got those cleared out so we could get started on the sprinklers.

We got the yard trenched and then Clay got started laying down the sprinklers over labor day weekend. This was quite the process and even with help from the neighbors and family, it took a few weeks to get them finished up. Will loved being outside with them and digging in the dirt while they worked.






Once the sprinklers were finished up, we started leveling out the dirt and clearing out all the garbage and such so we could bring in the top soil. After a few days and lots of top soil, the yard was finally prepped for sod!!!!!!


Stay tuned for the finished product!
