After a 14-hour marathon day on Monday, we managed to finish seeding the yard. We ran out of straw with about a third of the yard to go. It was actually a relief... I don't think Aaron would have agreed to stop otherwise! So after Paul helped us replenish our straw supplies, we finally finished spreading the straw on Tuesday night.
Turns out that was the easy part! Once it was all done, we needed to start watering. After a somewhat feeble first attempt, our neighbors took pity on us and brought over 4 sprinklers (the fancy tripod kind!) and several hoses so we've been watering ever since. And this morning, after a reasonable downpour last night, we had grass sprouting up in the front yard!! It's pretty cool to see our hard work paying off already.
