We have been waiting for a finished yard and fence for tooooooooo long, a year and a half to be
exact. Now we finally have both. My girls are loving it!! I am loving it as well, I feel comfortable letting my girls play outside in the backyard even while I am not able to be out there. They played in the swimming pool in the backyard on Wednesday and Thursday and they would have today too but it was rainy and cool.
We thought about paying someone to do our yard but Travis decided to put his own sweat into our kids play yard and save ALOT of money. He did have some help from my Dad and my Mom helped with the kids, a couple of great neighbors, and I did help with laying the HEAVY sod. We are so happy that we can now let our kids run around and have fun. This yard is a Great part of our home. Now we just need trees, bushes and flowers. :) Mommy and Daddy love you girls!!!!! P.S Layla you are not able to play in the yard yet, but soon enough my sweet!

WOW! I love it. Good job Travis! I am jealous of a big yard....they are hard to come by down here. Maybe we will just have to move in with you :)

P.S. The girls are STILL cute!
