New Backyard - Grass!!!

So with the TV show, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition airing from a Tucson home this past weekend, it inspired Sara and Robb to do a home makeover of their own. The only difference is that instead of making over the inside of the house, the makeover was done to the backyard. A couple of years ago we decided that we were going to put river rock in the backyard and it worked well. But with Jeremy here and the fact that he is growing like a weed (no pun intended) we thought grass would be a good investment.

So out came the river rock, out came the fence, out came the concrete slab (suppose to be for a hot tub), and out came the feel of a small and cramped yard, and in it's place: a larger, greener backyard. A little piece of the Midwest in the Southwest desert. Enjoy the pictures of the backyard. When we take some with Jeremy on it, we will definitely post those as well. And if you do not remember what the old yard looked like, let us know and we can post pictures of the transformation.



Oh, Charlie loves having grass back. When she went on it for the first time she started rolling around on it. I bet it brings back some great memories of living back in Illinois. Dee was a bit hesitant at first, but has come around and has taken a liking to it also.
