This post has been stuck in the camera and my brain for almost a week now. The above is what Ben and I ate for our last 'snack' of vacation! I lost all the weight two days after returning to normal :)
This one is before.
This one is after*it's a different area than pictured above......
Ben is completely remodeling our back yard. For those who didn't know, we sold our 7.4 thousand square foot front yard this spring. We knew we'd be loosing our main outside play area so we decided to make the back yard usable. The lawn was all uneven and the ungrassed areas were really high maintenance.
Ben is such a hard worker and is massively persistent. In one day he moved 68 wheelbarrow loads of dirt from the side of the house to the far back yard. I don't estimate well at all, but I would think it's about 80 yards one way. I helped when I could and only with the shoveling of the dirt, he was a gentleman and didn't want me to hurt myself while using the wheelbarrow (I probably would have too!)
I've tried to post these with oldest first, but this site isn't complementing me or cooperating with me today:)
This one is after.
This is before.
Our instant lawn will be delivered Thursday. We will have to wait to break it in until sometime mid September. Ahhhhh! Can't wait. Ben thinks the best combination for relaxing is bbq (it will be more fun in our new back yard), beer and a book.....I say bbq, a margarita and the kids in BED! Y'all know I love my kids:)
