The Grass is greener on this side

Our backyard has gone from barren dirt farm to legitimate lawn. It hasn't been easy. Our earlier posts have shown just what horrible shape our backyard was in. Nothing but weeds and ancient Corona caps. Every time we'd go outside we'd find a some new and strange trinket like a beach ball or a small onion field as we worked. All the hard work has finally paid off and we now have a lawn to care for. So while we've created an extra chore for ourselves, we no longer have the ugliest backyard in the world.




Here are some pics to compare what we had to what our lawn looks like now.

Preview!

Well - we've been a little lax in our posting lately, but doing so has enabled us to have a lot to post about all at once! Here's a quick preview....over the weekend we had a wonderful Lena in town, bought an antique mahogany wardrobe and much, much more!

We'll post all of the details ASAP!

Hope everyone is having a good night....Atticus and I are still training for our half marathon - just got back from a run!
