a YARD finally!!

It has been a busy week...but it all pays off. We have a YARD!! And we LOVE it!

We had the yard graded and some dirt brought in on Tuesday and the sidewalk raised. Eric, myself and Taylor put in some edging and block Wed and Thurs. Fri the sprinklers were put in and Fri after work we laid the sod. With the help of Rick we were able to complete this project before dark on Friday night. Taylor was our little water girl, mainly trying to drag the water jug around and licking the spout!! It was cute!

A HUGE THANK YOU to Rick for taking the time after a long day of work to come help us lay sod. And sacrificing his night with his little guy and Brooke!! Also THANK YOU to G'ma and G'pa Spanier for coming to take Taylor Sat so we could finish the yard and celebrate.

Eric and I were sick of grass and our yard by Sat so we met up with Kurt at the horse races at Canterbury Park. It was a first for both Eric and I....needless to say we need more advice on how to bet on horses, we didn't win. But had a great time with Kurt and Lori that evening - even though we were tired and went home!
