It's actually been fun getting the yard done. We finished up filling the garden boxes and even planted some herbs and vegetables. Memorial Day was mostly spent moving rock. We put decorative rock inside all of the curbing to cover the ground and weed fabric. I really need to take some pictures, but I've been busy trying to get it all done.
Yesterday a bunch of us got together to lay sod for my backyard neighbor. It's amazing the difference an hour of work can make on a yard (especially when that hour is spent covering bare earth with grass). Seth has been working just about everyday for a month to get the ground ready. He couldn't be happier with how it turned out.
Well, I'll try to take some photos tonight and post them soon. We just have a few more projects to get done this year and we'll be set.

Great weekend
Let's see, BYU won, we had General Conference meetings all weekend, and our neighbors cooked us breakfast. All in all, it was a pretty great weekend.
More on the breakfast...Sunday morning our newest neighbors called up and said that they had cooked too much breakfast, so we needed to come over and help them finish. They had cooked french toast, bacon, sausage and scrambled eggs. Talk about a wonderful breakfast. We'll have to invite them over soon to repay the kindness. They have three daughters that are 8, 7, and 4 (to balance out our other neighbors that have 3 sons which are 12, 10, and 6). We feel blessed to be among so many great families.

Progress on the Profile
We are almost done with the online profile for LDS Family Services. It's about time that we finish. In fact, we should be able to finish tonight with all the writing. Then it just comes down to editing the photos to go on the site.
BYU didn't play last week, but they were able to jump in the polls to 7th and 8th (depending on the poll). It's exciting because it makes each game mean that much more.
Last weekend was interesting. On Friday, we ended up going over to our new backyard neighbors' house to play some games. It was a blast and we found out we are very much alike in personality. We had some plans to go shopping Saturday, but that didn't work out. Instead I helped some neighbors put down sod for a few hours and needed a nap to recuperate.
