We got Sod!!

We finally got sod! Almost 1 1/2 months after moving into the house - we finally have some grass. It was an interesting time living with a dirty yard. As you could imagine - our shoes were constantly dirty/muddy, garage stayed a mess and even coming into the house - it was hard to not have a dirty, dusty mess. Little man Jase was the typical boy - he wanted to play in the dirt all the time and loved it. We were finally able to get our dogs and they seemed excited to be in the new house. We made it and survived. Now - it's going to take a little time to get the grass to root, grow and look nice & green. As you will see - the grass really gave the house a different look.

Front yard.

We worked a lot on our landscaping. Turned out nice!

Back yard - it's trying to grow! The majority of the back was seeded.


Our little bed at the back of the house. We plan to put a deck, patio and
screened in porch here next year.

We are in and mostly settled!

I can't believe the time has come! We have been in our new home for a little over 2 weeks now. It's been a LOT of work. We are mostly settled - just a few things to finish up. As you will see - we still do not have grass or landscaping. We hope to have grass, plants and trees this week sometime. We will share those pics as it occurs. Here are a lot of pics of the house. We are so blessed - can't wait to see what God has planned for our new home.
