We've finished the sodding - Yahoo!!!

So, after 1+ weeks of hard work, working around a 1 year's old and full-time jobs' schedules, we have finished sodding our back yard. By doing it ourselves, it cost us around $675. That includes the sod, soil, a garden cart, shovel, rake, and tarps. Compared to $2000 that landscapers were quoting, we did pretty well in our spending. And it looks pretty good if I do say so myself. We still need to work on the garden areas but the sodding has been completed. Whew! And we are still going to buy a shed and some gravel to sit it on. That will be much more costly - probably around $1,200. But I'm selling some stock options to cover all costs so that it doesn't impact our existing debt. If that darn stock price would just go up again. :)
