FINALLY! Sprouts With Attitude ...

I am feeling so, so proud of my sweet hubby and all his sweet skills. Now, you should understand that when we bought our house the yards, front and back, were hideous. It was like someone had xeriscaped in the dark with a bunch of sample materials they'd collected from shops up and down the valley. OK, that was mean and beside the point.

Today it is official. After months of digging up and raking out rocks, after moving loads and loads of dirt around and hauling out buckets of bark ... after seeding, spreading peat moss and adjusting the sprinklers ever so carefully, our back yard is now absolutely more green than brown. I LOVE MY HUSBAND!They have a long way to go, but these little sprouts are so cute and definitely have a lot of spunk.
