Our friend Troy is in our ward and is helping us put in a sprinkler system. YEA!!!! I cannot tell you how excited I am. I have also learned that it is so much better to do it before you have grass. Man, our soil was SO hard—the trencher was really a HUGE pain in the bum for Dillon. Seriously, one line across the grass with that would take like 45 minutes to an hour!!!! It was INSANE. I wasn’t even doing it and I felt like crying in behalf of all the crap Dillon had to do with that trencher. Not. Fun. But that is done and the front is in! So this week is working on the back. It’s a bit of a mess around here with all the dirt and rocks on top of the grass, but hopefully that will all be looking better in the next few weeks. It is dang hard to keep grass green around here watering by hand! I’m SO thankful that we don’t have to anymore!!! I don’t have any pics of Troy here—I felt like it would be weird taking his picture (our neighbor Clark came and helped for a little while on Saturday afternoon too).

I remember long, long ago when Mike was putting in our sprinker system in Riverton. He had me help him occassionally and it was NOT a good experience. People say building a house together is hard on a marriage – I say it's nothing compared to putting in the sprinker system! It is hard and frustrating work! So glad you've got one now! We don't have to worry about that here in England, no one even has sprinklers.
