Grass!!:)

It's official - we are no longer the rednecks on the block without grass!! We finally laid our sod two weekends ago. We had the help of the my parents, the missionaries, and our neighbors (I think they wanted to help out all they could because they were tired of living next to DIRT!!) to get the sod laid and picked up. Our yard looks great and the boys keep asking dad "when can we walk on it and play football!" - those who know Cam know that he is "a little" extra anal when it comes to anything like this. The people recommend 2-3 weeks so in Cam's mind its 4-6 weeks before we will be able to step foot on the grass!! Oh well he worked VERY hard to complete our wall and all the dirt work so we can wait a little extra time!!

I had to get a few last pictures of the boys
playing in our dirt!! That's all they've known!

Teylor asked Cameron if we really had to
get grass - "why can't we just keep the dirt?"
He will LOVE it - I know it!!

My dad and mom came over Friday night to
drop the bobcat off - so when my dad and I went
to get the grass the next morning we wouldn't make
noise so early in the morning!! We had Gram help
us level the dirt!!

Parkar helping like a big boy



Teylor was such a BIG help - the guys would get
the rolls off the pallet and put it where it needed to
go and Teylor would unroll them and pull them into
place - he did great!!





The job completed!! We still have to put some bushes
behind that little wall Cam is standing on and we are going
to put a few trees in - we just haven't completely decided on
where we want to put them yet!






It was so hot out that day so Parkar and went
inside and were sitting on Teylor's window bench
in his room and Hoobie was being silly playing with
my glasses! Isn't he SO cute!




He snuck on the lawn before Daddy had
to scoop him off the grass - he didn't know
what to think of the grass! He thought he was sneaky!
