Getting Grass

We planned to work on making a retaining wall on Memorial day weekend. Our grass was supposed to get done on Thursday, but then the landscaping company we used had something come up for the city that they HAD to do, so they came Friday and part of Saturday instead. Good thing we had not planned to go away for the long weekend. Anyway, the good news is, we now have GRASS in the back yard! YAY!

The good news is . . . Michael and I managed to get the retaining wall done today (well 4 courses of it -- we decided we wanted to add one more layer but we will need to get more blocks for that). The back yard is looking great. We just need to get trees and do the drip line and then add rocks along the edges. Anyway, here are some pictures of the process . . .









And here are a couple shots of the retaining wall Mic and I made:

I don't think I could be any more jealous.
