T-minus 7 Days

We've been busy busy busy!

Last week we spent many hours fixing trenches,

and laying and gluing pipes for sprinklers.

I forgot to take a picture of all the trenches in our yard,

so here is a picture of most of the front yard before we buried the pipe.

 And the side yard...

 Here is the other side and the backyard after we buried the pipe and marked the sprinklers (the little orange flags).

Saturday we deepened a few of the trenches some more so the rototiller wouldn't break the pipes.

Then we buried them and marked the sprinklers.

Then we soaked the ground so that there wouldn't be too much dust when the dirt work guy rototilled the yard.

He did a great job, unlike me, he didn't break any of the sprinklers (that we know of yet).

I broke one was we were burying.... apparently I don't know my own strength.

Today, the plan is to hook up the sprinklers to the valve box (we wanted to do this before we buried them, but we ran out of time.. oh well).

Tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday we need to spread compost all over the yard.

Friday too if we aren't finished.

Then on Saturday,

we will lay sod!

So excited!

But

that isn't all that is coming up.

As we do all of that we also need to clean our house and baby proof our house because....

drum roll please...

our home inspection is next Monday!

We have a busy week ahead of us!

But I think we can do it!
