Our War Zone


John has put the bedroom/bathroom remodel project on hold so he could redo the backyard - sprinkler system and grass. We all went out to help him tonight after dinner. The girls were really helpful digging loose dirt out of ditches, and even helped John cut some pipe. What Fun!!

Tomorrow he will till all of the dead grass (does it look dead enough? I think so), then Tuesday the new drought tolerant sod arrives. We'll have a new looking backyard in a week. Yay!

Looks familiar. Ken is laying sprinkler pipe, too. I think you'll have grass first, though. We're definitely going slower!

I hate to rub it in, but...no sprinkler systems required around here! ;)

This looks all too familiar, except for the whole helpful-older-kids" thing.

How many on-going projects are there now?
