Highlights of 2008 - Grass!


Strange, I know. In comparison to having a baby, getting grass may seem like a small detail. But after two winters and one summer of dirt and mud, I was so grateful! We put it in less than two weeks afte I had Colton, so I wasn't much help, but a big THANK YOU to my sister, my in-laws and all our neighbors who came over unsolicited on a Saturday morning and got it done in just over an hour. It made me love my neighborhood even more! We have sure been enjoying our grass since that wonderful day . . .

We had a dirt back yard for 2 years so I know how exciting it is to finally get grass. It looks great.

Oh, I can soooooo appreciate the beauty of getting grass. Grass and fence - what more could you ask for?? :)

ps. I just realized that I should be hosting the 3rd Annual Cul-de-Sac Christmas Party. Sad. :( If you and Melody decide to do one in my honor, please take pictures!
