Going Green...

So last weekend, Stephen and I spent the morning doing this......

And this...
And a little of this...

Yep! You guessed it! We now have some grass in our little back yard and we are way excited about the fact. After many hours of raking tons and tons of rocks and trying to level and grade the dirt, it so nice to look out our back window and seen some green. We were glad we actually had a nice warm day to lay it in. It got up to almost 70 degrees that day. Although it would be hard to believe after all the snow we got this week. But we got up early and the two of us laid the sod in about 3 hours. I have to say those rolls of sod are heavy. So needless to say, we were sore for a few days...but it was definitely worth it. I'm excited to plant a small vegetable garden and some flowers this summer. Now the work really begins!
