My kids love Easter Egg Hunts. I think its great to watch them scramble around and try and get all the eggs we have “carefully” hidden the night before. Just a small hint though. Make sure you tie your dogs up before and while you are Easter Egg Hunting as one year we didn’t and our big round yellow dog found most of the eggs and ate them at night. A lovely weekend at he Vet as well as a quick trip to get more eggs. Thanks God for Grandmas! But all the other years, it is great to ‘carefully’ put our our eggs on the lawn, and have a few “hidden away” for the kids to run outside and collect as many as their little hands can carry.

Easter Sunday is a great day at our place. Firstly there is the Easter egg hunt at dawn. Yes dawn. That is our rule, the sun has to be out at least before we go outside and search for eggs. Having a very early riser means we have to put these rules in place. Then there is the traditional, only one egg before breakfast rule. Then Pancakes for breakfast with chocolate syrup (of course). Then the kids run off their sugar high, and we all get together for a big family Easter Sunday lunch. Usually ending with some type of crazy sporting activity on the front lawn. So our lawn really is used a lot on Easter weekend, especially the Sunday. And I love that I have a Blue Couch lawn. Its so soft and fluffy for late night egg hiding. And its great for the soccer fall down that I usually end up having in the afternoon. I am not what you would call coordinated so I am always the first to go down. (And its a good excuse to sit down after a run and have a cool beverage.)

We are delivering Thursday afternoon for your Friday morning installers, but we are booking up quickly. So get your Easter orders in as quickly as possible to ensure you can get a soft green lawn for your Easter hunt!

Well after a weekend on at Surfers Paradise, in the concrete jungle, I am very very happy to be home in my greener space. It made me realise how important it is to have that green space around you to help relax and breathe deeply so you can continue with your day. I take my hat off to you all who work in office blocks and in the city scape.

The green spaces, especially your home, feels so relaxing. Even just walking up to your green soft lawn, makes me feel better. Seeing the lush deep colour makes me feel a sense of calm. A place to take big deep breathes. And unwind and get a family brain on instead of my work head space.

This is one of my favourite green spaces at the back of our place.

Wheres your favourite?

After a weekend of mud, rain, and thunder, a green lawn is always so much nicer. And easier on the cleaning of the floors.

Like me, you are probably searching through the web in a Monday-itis type way. Thats what I call when on Monday morning when you have a week ahead of you doing some things you really don’t want to and some that you are really looking forward to and wish would hurry up, and you sit down in front of the computer and all of a sudden you are looking at Facebook, holidays of exciting places that one day you may get to visit, and at new home improvements that you can either get someone to do for you to make your next weekend way more exciting and relaxing, or some DIY tips.

And in your Monday-itis this morning you have stumbled across our page with new and beautiful lawns that really could be at your place. Instead of the dust and dirt and brown coming into your home and making all that hard work you have down to clean and tidy pointless, you could have this at your place….

Or this…..

Or this….

Or you could stop dreaming and send a quick email to sarah@coastalturf.com.au and we can make it happen at your place. Or call and have a chat with me about how we can make your lawn a gorgeous green lush soft fluffy lawn that everyone will want to lie on.

That way we can look this this, but your lawn will look AMAZING..

Chat Soon.

Riley and I after we fun tested a new lawn going to Sanctuary Cove.

Some times talking about our Blue Couch con become very confusing. Just because the english language is strange. The spelling for Couch (the Lawn grass) and Couch (the chair you sit on usually in the lounge room) is exactly the same. They do share similar qualities I guess. Well they should depending upon the type of chair couch you have. Like they are both soft fluffy and comfy to sit on. And in some cases, similar colours. And if you are like my family, they both have toys over them. Thankfully it is only my lawn couch that has bikes across it, and both always have balls, dolls, bears, bats (the type used to hit balls with, another one of those strange words), and other very loved toys abandoned across them waiting for someone to come and pick them up. Usually a loving mother, but more and more now I am making the kids pick them up themselves. (But enough of my mothering skills that I am getting better at being strong in the face of picking up toys that I have DEFINITELY not played with).

So the Blue Couch lawn looks a lot more inviting most of the time than my couch inside. Mostly because after a day on the farm with my boots on, I love coming home, taking my boots off and walking across the lawn with my bare feet on the soft fluffy almost massaging lawn. It makes my feet feel back in touch with what is important in life. From the ground up so to speak. And I love the afternoon times as well because it is really is so much more relaxed. There is no rushing and moving to get kids to school, its just easy going time to spend with the kids. And talk them into picking up their own toys!
