Painting the Grass Green

Posted on

Today was the community Easter Egg Hunt. I took Lady Bug to gather eggs with the other children in the neighborhood. She had tons of fun running around in the grass at the park. I snapped a bunch of pictures of her looking for the hidden eggs.

The grass looked soo vibrant in all of the pictures. It reminded me of a time I went to visit family in Tennessee and saw a man spraying green onto the grass in front of a business.  I thought it was pretty strange at first. Then I saw another person spraying the same green substance onto his front lawn. I appreciate a nice looking lawn, but I’ve never considered faking it with spray paint.


Sprinklers Are Practical and Fun

It was pretty warm this afternoon.  Lady Bug and I needed a fun way to cool off.  I turned on the sprinklers in our back yard and we put on our swim suits.  Lady Bug and I had a blast running through the sprinklers.  The lawn needed the extra water.  I hate when the grass gets too dry so I figured it couldn’t hurt it.

We ran through the water for a good fifteen minutes.  It felt great having the cool water splash up against our skin.  It reminded me of when I was her age and would run outside in our sprinklers. By the time we were finished we were sopping wet and the grass had a good drink.  Everyone was happy.
