YARD WORK

So as some of you now, but most of you dont Aaron and I have been trying to get our backyard done. Well when I say done I mean everything that includes sprinklers grass and a cement patio. I had no idea what I was getting into when I said I wanted it all done this year it has been a big project. We started doing trenches two weeks ago and we are almost done with the sprinkler part of this whole project. I swear I have never seen so many rocks in one spot in my life. We have so many big rocks that my mom came and got some so she could use them as a border for her three flower gardens. We have had a pretty fun time doing it though. It would be a lot better if the weather we be good for a couple of days and then we could probably get it done faster but it doesnt seem to be working in our favor. We have had family come over and help us and we really appreciate it. A couple of things that we have done that is kind of funny is that when we first started Aaron was getting ready to put an attachment on one of the pipes and instead of cutting that pipe he cut the main pipe that comes out from the house and the water was one so it sprayed everywhere. When we were doing trenches we had a ton of fun we did have blue stakes come out but we still manages to do some damage. We cut the cable line to the internet and cable in our house so I was unconnected for almost a week. We decided to do a rock wall in our backyard and that is going to be an area for our garden and I am really excited it looks really cool when we got the rocks last year we dropped it on accident on the green power box and squashed it but the power still work. Well also while we were doing trenches we got a power line and half of the power in our house was off which kind of was really weird they did come out and fix it and to our suprise we do not have to pay to fix anything which is quite lucky. While off to do more and hopefully not cause more damage. When we are done I will post pictures of everything.
