Gardening

.
Now that it is finally warmer out (well, some days are really warm already while others are still quite cool) we've decided to get our little yard in shape. Our grass especially is pretty pitiful - there is so much moss! So we bought a tool to get some air to the grass roots and get the moss out and put a mixture of "moss killer" and fertilizer on top, along with new grass seed. It was hard work, Neil did most of it and had open blisters by the end of the day. Not used to hard work anymore. :)








And even Finn and Lily helped with operation "moss extinction": they did a good job cleaning it out from in between the patio stones - for about 15 minutes or so.



We also bought nice potted plants for the patio, and the kids got to decorate a couple bushes with Easter eggs. Hopefully everything will grow nicely. I can't wait for our beech hedge to turn green again!
