So we have been working on our backyard since this spring...we started with expanding our back patio with cobblestones, then we put in a sprinkler system throughout both the front and backyard and this weekend we tackled the final task of putting in sod...check it out....
This is what we started with, a very small slab of concrete...
...so we decided to make it bigger with some matching cobblestones! (This was right after we finished, so it's still a little dirty) 
This is to remind you how HORRIBLE our grass was to start with. And how much Ginobili has grown...what a cutie pie!
Friday, Lex left work early to come home and till up the entire backyard - 6 hours of work!
We woke up a 6:00 Saturday morning and started preparing for the sod. They delivered it at 9:00 and we started laying it about 10:00 and it took us (including Ryan) until about 3:00 to get it all laid! Ginobili loves his new grass!
We both want to thank our GREAT neighbors for helping us through this entire process. We couldn't have done it all with out them!! THANK YOU - Ryan & Sara and Clayton & Julie!!
Now are starting to plan a cook out to celebrate! Everyone's invited...
