Yard Work

We had 2 "landscaping" projects going yesterday.

This was our yard after the storm in July 2008.
We cut down the tree and tried to "kill" the stump.
It required cutting the stump down low,
then pouring this toxic mixture and covering it with a bag.

We tried to grow grass last year over the top,
but it didn't work.

So David is trying again this year.

We will see how it works...
let's keep our fingers crossed.

In the backyard, Alexis was busy with her own landscaping.

She gathered the rocks, and placed them
very strategically around the fire pit.

This was her favorite rock,
because it was cracked and she threw it hard
until it broke.

Her project was not quite done,
but she was happy with the work
that she had done thus far.
