The Front 40 Acres




These days it seems that I do not have enough time to water (by hand) the dry spots in our lawn and it gets worse every year. When I first bought the house, 5 1/1 years ago, there were 1 or 2 dry spots--now it seems there are only 1 or 2 green spots.

For all the water we use, you'd think we'd have the greenest lawn on the block, but every year the coverage gets worse. I think we need to raise the sprinkler heads or buy a matching shade of green to spray paint the dry spots. Xerascaping is looking better all the time!

You should go with the AZ look-just use lots of rocks and desert plants. Not to much work to keep them alive!

P.S. very cute pictures of Jacob. Can't believe how big he has gotten!

Did you know you can take the whole word verification thing off your comment section? I did... you can, too!
