April Showers

We have been getting a lot of rain the past few days. For a while our grass was still looking half dead and we were worried that it would never look as good as our neighbor’s perfect lawn. But…the rain this weekend did the trick! We discovered bright, beautiful, green grass on Sunday! Now it is hard to tell where our lawn starts and our neighbor’s law begins (before, there was definitely a clear line). We are so excited! Our trees started to turn green this weekend too. It is so nice to finally see some life in our yard!

View from our front porch a little while ago….it was still raining.

Lovin’ the green.

This guy had to sneak a peek at the pretty lawn too.
