Mud Mud go away

We moved into our new house March of 2007. Of course when you get into a house, you let pride and money set in. We thought " we can do ALL this on our own", not thinking that this too takes ALOT of time! Instead of hiring a landscaping company, we wanted to save a few thousand and do it ourselves!


A year later... this is our beautiful landscaping!



Don't get me wrong, Ryan is a hard worker and I love him dearly. The only problem is he is gone ALOT with work. He is a pilot for the air guard, which requires him to stay overnight, when his jet breaks : (We were suppose to sod last weekend, but mother nature is not being cooperative. We thought lets lay the sod this weekend..... again mother nature plans on dumping 3 inches on Fargo Moorhead area. Oh and we are also in a flash flood watch! Looks like a no go for this weekend, maybe next :)

Having no lawn probably would not bother me too much if Abby's basketball didn't roll into the mud every time she missed the basket....
