This is a small photo of the area at the back yard! We have only weeds! I do not want sod, I want to use some kind of seed so we can renew it often!
Suggest some yard seed for this spot!

I am in Florida, it is all sandy soil! No real dirt. It is sunny and dry!

Get a soil test done through your County Agricultural Extension Office. They are not expensive (around $10.00) and will tell you everything you need to know to fix your soil. They have a lot of plant knowledge so you can ask them also. Or to find plants, go to your local plant nursery. You can see the plants they are talking about before you make a choice.
There are ground covers, like creeping fig, that might work! Ask your lawn center!
Perhaps this will help:

Best plan, for many reasons, would be seeds/plants that are native to your area and soil type. http://www.floridanativeplants.com/
Wild flowers of any kind
