Yesterday it was nearly 80 and today it is cold and actually snowing! Shorts yesterday and sweats/snow clothing the next not completely unusual Utah weather, but after getting sun burned working out in my yard yesterday this is very unwelcomed! The last week has been pretty busy outside at the Wentz house! I was able to get my raised flower beds in (picked up all of the brick last week for them), planted shrubs and we even got the fence posts put in last Friday. The fence company is coming this Friday to finish putting in our fence and we will be another step closer to laying sod. I just need to finish putting the rings I am building out of brick around my trees and we will need to level the yard a bit more and then we can order sod!!!! If it were up to me, I would have just hired someone to come and put in my yard for me, but it is nice to see everything finally coming together and all of the hardwork paying off! We are also in process of working on our basement. I had to get the plumbers in to do the plumbing last Thursday so that is done....we have just a few more things for electrical in our family room and the sheet rock was delivered this morning. The sheetrockers can get started on everything except for the family room and the bathroom because we have just a few more things that we need to do before that can be sheeted, so this weekend will be another busy one for us! Below are some pics of outside and our basement as it sits right now. I will take some more pictures when the weather is a little bit nicer and I get the rest of the planters done in my back yard, hopefully the fence will be up at that time as well and I can post some updates on that! ENJOY!
The ring I built around one of three trees in my back yard.

Your yard is looking great!! So is your basement. It's great to see progress and know that one day it will be done, huh.
