Oh my achin' everything

No blog updates? Why?
We'll get right down to the dirty information...(literally)
We've been (during naptimes and at night with a spot light):

- Laying down over a 1000 brick paver patio (that's where the aching back stepped in)
- Digging potential future flower beds, raised garden areas etc.
- Placing flagstone walk ways and then removing them to do sprinklers
- Hauling sand, gravel and our kids by wheel barrow to every remote inch on our property
- Buying trees, shrubs, weed barrier, grass barrier, sand, dirt, mulch, sprinkler parts, misters, electrical wire
- Spreading over 240 wheel barrows of mulch over our soon-to-be lawn (that's 48 cubic yards!!)
- Moved 12 cubic yards of topsoil to various beds, low spots etc.
- Tilled the entire yard and in some spots several times
- And only 2 injuries! (Stan sprained his wrist and, my hand swelled for some odd reason)

We're dirty and tired, but tomorrow we gotta get tough because they're delivering almost 7 thousand square feet of sod!
