Why seed when you can sod?

About a week ago Joe says to me "you know we could sod the yard instead of seeding and putting down straw...it'd be an instant yard..."

"Really? You can do that? I was not aware that you could just buy grass that's been pre-grown" I said (sarcastically of course).
Joe had decided that the bales of straw were 'costly' and the whole deal with seed and straw would be messy and time consuming and the sodding was actually less expensive than we had previously thought.


So, within a week turnaround time we had an instant beautiful yard. Except for the finishing touches of plants, shrubs, trees and mulch our yard is nearly complete.


Pictures of the nearly complete yard will be posted soon, it's dark out!!
