Backyard before and after

Before:

After:

You may notice that the new sod is a bit patchy. It rained and rained in May and early June. Then, we got our backyard landscaped and the rain stopped. The grass looked a lot worse, but with frequent watering it is coming back slowly. A couple of other plants are also dry, and some have been found by bunnies, but everything should be ok over time.
