This past week Mike was on vacation from UPS so he started to work in our backyard again. All week he worked back in the jungle pulling up weeds and turning the ground over. On Friday my dad came out and helped Mike build a retaining wall that will hopefully soon be a vegetable/fruit garden and then the two of them leveled the ground. Then today Mike, his dad and Marcus laid the sod and man does it make a big difference!
Here's a few before pictures:
This is back when we just kept watering it hoping we'd grow grass...
Here's some after we'd torn up the old sod and weeds.
Just some more weeds...
And finally the after shots! 
Here is where my garden will be! (Thanks Dad and Mike) 
It's amazing and I am so proud of my husband for sticking it with it.
