We have lived in our house for almost 3 years now and this past October we finally put grass in!
You may not understand how exciting this is, but let me try to explain a little. So our yard is not one of those yards were you move into the house and the yard is ready for you to do whatever you would like to it. We had boulders and hills and holes like none other. and to top all that off it was covered with weeds, and not the little weeds that are easy to take care of but the massive weeds that spread and intertwine with each other that make it impossible to find the roots and to top it all off they were the super poky weeds (you know the weeds that spew those nasty little stickers that stick to everything but mostly like to stab you in the bottom of your foot?) Well, that is what our front yard was like for the past 2 1/2 years so we finally decided to work on it and we finally got it enough done that we could put grass in the front yard! Let me tell you I am so excited. It started to warm up a little a couple weeks ago and I had to run some garbage out to the street before the garbage man came, and instead of having to walk all the way around the driveway I walked through the front yard (barefoot) and to the street and didn't step on one poky and it was the most amazing thing!!! So here are some transformation pictures from when we started putting the grass in until we finished!

John wasn't as excited about this as I was
We are getting there
Almost done
Only one row left

And we're done!! It looks so much bigger with no weeds and lots of grass.
