Yard work is fun

Chad is a good sport to let his daughters in on the action.
With some help from my dad Chad got a shed started in the corner of the yard for lawnmower and other necessities. The girls were so happy to climb on top and check it out!
Peyton as usual can be found eating things she finds outdoors! While Brynlyn and I were busy picking weeds.
Our backyard is ready for sod after much hard work on Chad's part. He hauled more than 17 tons of rock out before hauling in new soil for grass.
The sod was delivered just before 5:00 am on Friday. That night when Chad got home from work, he finished up the sprinklers. And many other things to be sure we could start sod in the morning.
Saturday morning the work started. Bum cracks... Like Father, Like Daughter!
We had so much help it went super fast.
Grampy entertained the girls for a bit and even brought breakfast for everyone!
Peyton does not go outside without dumping a couple shovels full of dirt on herself.
Brynlyn was so excited to help, she was right in there working alongside the guys!
Love this picture, they were both working so hard and focused!
Almost done Bj, he hauled all the grass to the backyard!
Thanks to all our helpers the work was done in less than 2 hours, and we were able to do other great stuff with our weekend.
We could not have done it without you, thanks Bj, Bryson, Braden, Heeber and Grampy!
All the crazy rain we are receiving is wonderful for our new lawn.
Can't wait until we can play in our new backyard and bring in more dirt for my garden and play area.

What great little helpers you have! Love the pic of Brynlyn helping. Wish we could have been there to help or could have at least split the sod (like Chad wanted) our yard just wasn't ready for it! Looks great!
