Grass is a growin and strawberries are bloomin

Finally, the yard we seeded is growing, I can't wait to mow this beast!

 as much as I want to rake out the straw and start mowing, hubby says no :(

 its coming in FINALLY

 still a mess, but I am patient, well not really, but I sure am trying to be!

 LOVE this time of year, everything is greening up so pretty, things are starting to leaf out and even bloom

Scooter holdin down the fort, she loves layin in this are beside the back driveway and strawberry patch

 I should have had the "Preen" down, you can see I have little weeds trying to take over

 widdle green strawberries, gonna be an awesome year

 so pretty, the promise of something even better

the strawberry patch this year has tripled, we put in 12 plants to start with, the bed is now 5 feet by maybe 30 feet long?

Yard is seeded yeah

Finally, the grass seed is down, the straw is down, it's time to water it in good and wait for it to grow :)

 talk about muddy, we all have boots that are mud covered

 my poor new sidewalk has suffered during all of this yard work

 didn't seed right up to the house because I didn't want to battle grass if I decide to put a flowerbed back there 

 water water and more water

that was a LOT of grass seed! 

 the railroad ties and little pond is where I decided to create a new turtle pen, they have their own pond and they love it in there!

 when we put in the drainage around the house, we also put in a drain pipe out in the ditch and covered it over level, finally, no more weed whackin that ditch, I can mow it!

  by the time I get it all done, I will have used the whole roll

 see out by the road, that used to be a darn ditch that was 3-4 feet deep, always had to use the weed-eater to keep it nice looking, but now it is level and oh soo nice  

 Backfire up there in the door, you can just see her head, watching the boy out there teasing her

she has the door screen all tore up! brat cat
