Our backyard

We can go out back with bare feet! It is great.

Keith has been working on our backyard this summer. He put railroad ties around the outer edges, moved 45 yards of dirt in, installed the sprinkler system, built an area for some bushes and a hose holder, planted bushes and a tree, and laid the new sod. Here is the new view! I am thrilled! When we did the front yard, we planted seed, which took quite a while to get looking nice. It is amazing how fast sod changes the look of the yard. We just hope it establishes healthy, deep roots to stay as nice as it is now!
