We have a yard!

Our longest summer project is now finally complete! We had no grass. We had a yard of dirt. We decided to hydroseed instead of sod. Which turned out to be a lot of work but totally worth it! We tilled and raked the dirt so many times I was worried that the neighbors might think we just liked our dirt to look nice! I took a while to get enough loose soil to spray the seed in this rocky clay filled soil. Once we got it ready and they sprayed the seed, we had to put caution tape around the whole yard. It took about five weeks but it was fun to watch it all come in! And I no longer have to dust and mop my house everyday! We can even walk on it without our shoes on! We love grass!
