Wow its only 2 days till summer is here! How exciting! And what is more Australian than the sprinkled on the grass to water the lawn and the kids at the same time.

And the best time to do that without the guilt is after you put down your new turf. The grass is happy and the kids are supper happy cause not only do they have nice soft grass to run around on, but also a lovely cool sprinkler to run under too.

Win win really. I am for anything that stops ly kids being hot and grumpy. There are always the danger that all the neighbourhood kids may turn up for some soft grass sprinkler action as well. That always happens in our street.

Chat soon if I can here over the kids

Well again here I am at the dance reversal with all the dancing boyd and girls looking dazzling and Hollie having a marvelous time. And we are putting on the finishing touches to her costume and make-up. Kinda like the finishing touches to your house….

Well I had to refer to turf somewhere…..

Turning your house is the best finishing touch because adding that green around your house is like putting the glitter on. Making it sparkle saying I’m ready to go. Adding the green soft lush grass is inviting you to finally enjoy your home.

So gilts your place up for summer by adding some Coastal Turf grass at your place. It’s got to be better than waiting for hours at a 5 year old dance rehearsal.

Well summer is well and truly on its way and its sent the heat to let us know its coming. From the QTPA ( Queensland Turf Producers Association) we were sent this article about how turf reduces heat production against roads and footpaths and the more I think about it the more it does make sense.

When you have dirt and concrete backing up to your home it always seems warmer inside than if there is cool green lush grass leading into the cool of the house. I think even the green colour makes you feel cooler than the harshness of browns and greys.

So why not start summer already prepared with a cool green lawn at your place. It means to that when summer nights come you can play on the cool greenush grass and not bring the dirt inside your cool home.

Well most of you are thinking that turf farmers are probably caring and manicuring their farms on the weekend, but not so today for this part of the turf farming family. Part of being a mum is that your kids always have something that they want to do and things we have to do. My daughter is a dancer. Jazz this year. Who knows what next year. So today instead of sitting in my office or playing on the farm ( definety more fun than the office) I am sitting at dance concert rehearsal watching Hollie do her moves all nervous and excited. But I am not alone I have made my 2 boys come to but they had the good sense to bring DS ‘s.

So I hope you are at home enjoying your grass or thinking of ways to enjoy it and not at a dance rehearsal counting down minutes to leave. I am not a dancing mum. I am not organised enough! Maybe next week Tony might like to bring her. There are only 6 before the concert 😉 Oh well chat next week hopefully about grass and not how to properly tie jazz shoes.
