Grass, almost

3 weeks ago for FHE we planted some grass seed in our backyard patio planter. Nathan was right in on all of the action trying to be a big helper. Bracky only watched the progress but he was sure happy with lots of smiles.

The first 2 weeks after we planted the grass seed we had 2 cold spells with some snow and below freezing tempertures. We covered our small plot of grass with towels but we weren't sure if it was going to make it. The directions on the seed bag said to look for grass shoots one week after planting. At our one week mark we still only had dirt. But 2 weeks later these little beauties emerged and we were so thrilled that our grass was going to work out afterall.

Grass grows fast, we went from this to this in just one more week.

Now we are wondering how we are going to cut it. Curtis is pulling for a John Deer riding mower, I told him if he is good he might get one for Father's Day.
