The Backyard

So, I haven't written in a while because we have been SO busy. We have been working on our backyard. We went to Jenny's party a few weeks back and really liked the idea of a fire pit which she had in her backyard. So, we went to Home Depot and called Bolinder and got all of the stuff that we would need to do our backyard. We got a ton of shrubs and flowers for our flower beds, 3 new pine trees, a gazebo and etc. We all worked and Ken came out several times and helped out (Thank you!). It was a lot of hard work, but it looks great now!

These first ones are our piles of "things" and Josh moving them.





We got to work. The wind picked up at one point and we had to tie the new trees down. What else can you do but laugh? Tooele is known for the wind after all.




It was a process, but turned out nicely. Just in time for our 4th of July BBQ.
