Yard Progress!!

I loves this face of Matt's:
We made some great progress on the yard yesterday - and have the mild sunburns to prove it!
Our good friend, Clint, helped us haul some rock to outline the yard.
I weeded when I was not taking self-portraits of myself :)
It was A LOT of work, but oh so worth it.
Go Matt!
To be continued...
I hope you are all enjoying your weekends. This post was primarily for Matt's folks in Germany to see, as it is their lawn we are working on :)

Next: Some indoor chores and a coffee date. Woo hoo I love the weekends!

Can't wait to see the final outcome. That's a ton of rocks you guys put down! And taking a good self portrait is hard work :)

Good job! It looks like it was a hot day to be doing yard work! I just did a bunch of yard work yesterday and planted a bunch of fall veggies. Since you took pictures does that mean your camera is working again? :)

;) You just make me smile. My weekend has included grad school homework, babysitting, and making cards for my 1st giveaway. Back to the homework I go.

And I agree with Kristen, I hope you will post photos when you are done or along the way. :)

Way to go, Matt, Clint, and Ruhiyyih! One nice thing about gravel - it doesn't have to be watered. That is also the way to go, if conservation is the issue. We do not water lawns here, we let them go dormant. So, stone is a preference.

Wow! Well done! I'm tired just looking at it!

Actually, it was one and a half tons of rock. :) Clints truck is a half ton capacity, which was one-half of a cubic yard. But rock is heavy. The truck bed dropped several inches with the load in it.
