The first of our sod arrived July 1. About 7-8 workers came and helped lay it. It looked so nice!
We left a little spot for a garden. We also get "free" grass from our builder/subdivision, but it wasn't going to be delivered at the same time.
The next day they showed up and did most of the fence.

My planner from the Teaching Texan came. It made me so happy to get out my pens and set up my plan book!
We went on a short hike to some waterfalls with the girls' friend and her family.
We had a chance to go to the Ute Stampede Rodeo with Derek and Tansy and their kids. We had a picnic lunch at the city park before meeting up with them.
The kids had fun being with cousins. Eily, Alex, Nathaniel, Hadley, Tyler, Megan and Carolyn.
It was so cool to see the parachuter come in with flag.
The stunt motorcylcists were so cool at the end.
When the kids signed up for savings accounts last summer, they were given free tickets to the Aquarium. We were able to go this summer.

Our "free" sod showed up. We thought our landscape guy was going to have people come lay the sod. When they still hadn't shown up by 6:00 p.m., we "got" to do it ourselves.
Our neighbor lent us his little cart and his daughter, Abby.
It was a tiring process, but the kids did a nice job of stepping up to help out. We were so glad that we didn't have to lay more than we did.
When we went to get our hair cut, Megan mentioned she would like to have some color in her hair. She was given a $15 deal to get a "money piece."
The first color was too yellow, but it got fixed.
The end
