the lawn (or lack thereof)

We have been attempting to grow grass in our backyard ever since Ben first moved into our house. It has had its ups and downs. We first had to kill what remaining from the old lawn and then seed the new one. Nut grass seemed to take more to the soil than the hybrid bermuda we seeded. After round one of seeding it was declared that maybe it had not been done correctly and we tried again. A week or two of waiting and there were only patches of bermuda although the nutgrass seemed to be thriving. The next step was to plant stolens and they have taken nicely. Our jungle of a lawn is becoming more civilized by the day and the dirt spots are fading. Yay for the hard work of Ben and Royce!
