Yard Work

So this is what our summer consists of, keeping a pregnant lady as comfortable as possible in the summer heat and putting in our yard.

In July, we were able to get our front yard ready for some trenching for our sprinklers. After getting the retaining wall put up, it took another 60 wheel barrows of dirt to finish it off...but we also had to remove about 15 loads of rocks. Our neighborhood has got to be the rockiest soil on earth. We were actually very excited with the way it turned out. We like the character and uniqueness the wall gives our house, plus it helps divert attention away from the AC unit and utility meters on the side of the house.

Now now our goal is to level the back yard, remove the rocks, plan out the rest of the design, create a grid for the sprinklers, and have some nice green lawn before the baby comes which gives us about 12 weeks. Wish us luck!
