40 Bags in 40 Days Week #2

The Back Yard  

My oldest getting ready to mow down the jungle.
I hope she comes out alive!

Here are the reasons I let it get so bad...

 First, I hate bugs especially things that hop and fly 

for example grasshoppers and praying mantises. 

Just the thought gives me the chills.

Second, it has been rainy and cold outside.

Third I don't have the right equipment, lawn mowers and such, to keep it up.

So my husband borrowed my dad's mower and plowed down the weeds.

 We filled 4 huge trash bags full of clippings.

We also found a few random broken toys out there.

The girls moved all of the old pots to the trash. 

(I was helping but I saw a grasshopper and had to stop.)

I cleaned out all of the old paint and stain from the garage.

These will be going to a hazardous waste yard near by. I found it at Earth911.

I took all of these photos on my iphone with the Instagram app. It is a fun app that lets you add cool effects and then you can upload directly to Facebook, Twitter, emails, and a few other social media sites. You can also follow your friends and comment on their photos.

 Stay tuned for stuff from the bathrooms next week...
