We've been working on our crazy backyard again! Here is what the yard looked like before the 2 trees were knocked down:
Here's what it looked like after the trees were knocked down and the stumps ground:
Next step was to dig up the tarp that covered the whole back yard. We knew this wasn't going to be a fun job! The good thing is that the tarp came up in patches which you can see from this picture:
After pulling up the tarp my wonderful father-in-law tilled the soil so that it was all ready for the grass seed.
The tilling evened out the backyard as well. You can also tell how much bigger our backyard will be when this is all grass! It'll be so nice when this is all yard and not a dirt pit! Thank you for your help dad! :)
On a side note, we found some pretty interesting things hiding under our tarp: a wire shelf, vinyl flooring, carpet, a jingle bell, a flip flop, Cheese Nips package, bird food bag, and a pen. I don't quite know what happened in this yard before we got here, but I do know that we found a bunch of weird stuff you shouldn't find in a yard!
We just scheduled for the dirt pit to be seeded at the end of September so hopefully by November we'll actually have a back yard instead of a back patch!
