Southwest Yard

WOW!!!!  What a project this was.  The whole time we've lived here, this side of the yard has always been a project but after the storm last year it's really yucky. The kids never really like playing on this side so we fixed it.  It's been a long week, specially the last two days have been very crazy.  We found sod for a great price, so we went for it.  Monday night Enrique started the yard but only got part way when our friend's tiller lost a bolt and they couldn't use it anymore.  Oh, this all happened the last week of the month too, which is always crazy busy at his work so...  Friday was the next time the yard got worked on.  Unfortunately this meant the sod sat there dying for five days but Enrique says it will survive, we'll see. =) Enrique and Lili went to rent a tiller at Home Depot Friday afternoon while the rest of the kids and I were gathering all the debris out of the yard so Enrique could till when he returned.  We worked until 1:30am getting the yard ready.  Poor Enrique was exhausted, I've never seen him that over worked before.  But we had to start super early today because the tiller was due back at 9am. 
He stayed and worked on the yard while I took Gaby to her soccer game with the rest of the kids.  We came home and Sean showed up to help, which was a super huge blessing!!!!  Enrique returned from the store and him and Sean were at it straight until 3pm.  The both are beyond exhausted!  Their bodies are not functioning properly. But the project is complete!  Thanks you guys for working so hard.  Sean, I really appreciate you helping so much!!
