The time had come to get the backyard finished so we spent the whole week preping the ground(meaning we pulled weed and man were there alot) so we could lay red rock down! 
We had all of the rock delivered to the house the night before so it was ready to go (two delivery trucks worth). 
On Saturday morning after the Father/son campout Brandon and his dad went and found us some good looking trees to plant in the front and back of the house!
It was a really hot day, hiting in the 90's, so Coleton stayed cool by playing in the water, 
while the rest of us where hard at work! We had talked to a local company about coming an digging holes for the trees so we would not have to but they never showed so Brandon (and some help from some students) we dug our own holes! Brandons parents were so sweet to come and help, they layed the ground cover in the front while brandon loaded barrell fulls of rock down.
After working in the hot sun for hours we decided to call it a day. We had finished most of the front yard (ground cover layed, tree planted, and rock layed) along with planting the three trees in the backyard (which was much harder because we live on solid volcanic rock so we were pulling bolders out) which made for quite the long day. 
We have so much left to do but we are getting there slowly!
