Backyard Part 3

Our backyard is finally looking like a backyard! I am so excited to have a place to play behind our house and not just a weed patch. We got the fence all put up last fall and this spring we planted grass. It is coming in very nicely and we are able to play on it now. Atreyu has been having fun with his swingset and sandbox. We still need to get a lid for the sandbox so right now we are just using a tarp. We have used our fire pit 4 or 5 times already this spring. It's so fun to be able to roast hot dogs in your own backyard. We are planning on doing more with the firepit but right now we have just lined the hole with rocks and it works great!




The landscaping behind the house is looking so good! We are planning on putting mulch around all the plants and then we have some small river type rocks that we are going to use to fill in the rest of the space. My favorite part is still the steps into the yard but I also love the way Jesse made the border with all the rocks. I think the only negative to this backyard is the lack of shade but we will eventually do something about that too.
