The Grass is Always Greener...

...In my backyard! I have been an absentee blogger.  Sorry.  I am not sure why I blog in spurts, but after a while of not blogging, I want to blog.  So, here I am, making up for lost time.

As you know, we were trying to grow grass in our backyard.  I will say we were very successful for the first year!  It took lots and lots of watering (every night, 5 spots, 15 to 20 minutes per spot), a little anxious re-seeding by hand when I didn't think anything was growing, and lots of waiting.  There is definitely some patchiness and a long run of no grass where we ran Grouper,  and we do have a nice little brown spot where we let the grass grow too long before watering.  Oops.  But, overall, I will take it any day of the week.

Take a peek.

Some of our fab plants and flower beds!

 And, in case you don't remember what we started with ... look at how horribly brown it was after we got rid of the all the moss!
