We've lived in our house five years now...and are just now getting to the backyard. Oh, I know that some of our family members think perhaps we are slackers for taking so long (love you guys!) but we did have our reasons. First two years living here don't count-we suffered a few losses and the yard was the last thing on our minds. Next we had a baby, and who wants to do the yard when you can't even sleep all night? Not us. Finally, when we felt ready to get around to it, we couldn't quite decide/agree on what we wanted. All through this, we were also saving up so that we could pay outright for all of the work (budgeting is amazing people! Highly recommend it). Let's be real though, I had to work on patience a few times when I so badly wanted Eric to get a move on with this. Anyway, it's time and I remembered to start taking pictures throughout the whole process instead of just at the end like I normally do.
So here is in front of our kitchen window. We will put our square foot garden here. Eric is in the process of installing the sprinkling/drip system as well as building the garden walls:

Eric's excited he's doing this all himself:
Zane's helping and wearing sunscreen and a hat. I had to run out and smother BOTH Eilertsen boys with sunscreen:
Hehehe...someone found mud:
We will keep you updated on the progress of our yard!
