Fake Grass



When we were in Oceanside, they had a putting green that was covered in astroturf. Everyone laughed when we admitted that our backyard has been covered in astroturf too. We made the change when our grass kept dying out. No amount of seed and watering can survive in weeks of 100+ temps. Katie was dragging dirt everywhere, so Tim bought the least expensive version he could find. For under $100, our "outdoor carpet" has kept the dirt down, the weeds at bay, and it feels kinda nice under your toes (as long as you water it down before you step on it in the hot hot heat).

Ok, it is a little florescent in color, but we're not trying to fool anyone!
