This is the third year I see them grow back. They grow in like a colony, because there seems to be many of them growing next to each other.

Chlorophyllum molybdites (Green Spored Parasol) is exactly what I was thinking too Scott. Growing on grass, the brown warts, North American, hardly many others like it.

It looks like a "Lepiota". They're a sort of complex group that aren't all in the genus Lepiota. This one is likely Chlorophyllum molybdites: http://www.mushroomexpert.com/chlorophyllum_molybdites.html

looks like some kind of Amanita, but I'm no mushroom person
