Turf Turf Baby

We decided - We are going to get the artificial turf for our backyard!! WHOHOO!
Our beautiful house has been lacking a huge component, a backyard with more than dirt and weeds. We decided we were going to use our tax return to put in a backyard so that Austin and I can easily go out and play everyday. The big debate came over whether to put in sod or artificial grass/turf.
The fake stuff is so nice nowadays with many advantages over real grass - #1 I am allergic to grass and Austin will probably be too.
Other huge advantages; J won't have to mow, no chemicals on lawn, won't have to seed twice a year, won't have to buy a mower, won't have to put in sprinklers and waste precious AZ water on a lawn, etc. But the cost is super ridiculous.
We think we got a great deal and it is going into the back in like a week and a half. I am so thrilled because Justin and I really looked at it, researched it and made the decision together. :)
My 30th Birthday is in a month and we are going to have a big BBQ at our house. Now we will have a nice backyard to show off at the same time. I am so excited!!
