Last weekend was a pretty busy one for Jeff and me. It started off with Jeff's soccer game. They were playing a team that they really wanted to beat. Thankfully they won by one point!
As you can see-wayyyyyy too many weeds. This whole project took about 3 1/2 hours, and we still weren't finished. After we weeded Jeff sprayed some weed killer to get anything we missed and to stop anything from coming back. We were getting tired and the sun was going down. So one of my track-out projects is to finish the small patch of weeds that are left. While we were weeding, we found some interesting things in our yard:
Then we decided to do some yard work. Our back yard is 1/2 grass and 1/2 natural area. Well, there were so many weeds that our natural area looked like our grass area. Not a good thing! So Jeff and I decided to weed the crazy amount of weeds in the nautral area before it got to the grass. I forgot to take a before picture, but here is a half-way picture:

Some pretty purple flowers
Some sort of plant
A cute little frog
A really neat centipede- If you gently shake it, it lets out a chemical to ward off predators. The neat thing about this centipede is that it smells like amaretto and cherries! I made Jeff smell it, I don't think he was too happy about this!
And here is the final product-10 bags of weeds. My goodness. We better keep that area sprayed so we don't ever have to do this again!
