Yeah, the weeds are gone!

This was my workout today during kids' nap time -- dig up all the weeds that have taken over the "addition" area behind our house. The last two years we haven't had time (or energy) to tackle it. But I've gotten so sick of looking at the weeds. It took a full 2 hours of backbreaking work. UGH. I've already taken the Advil. This is the addition area that the previous owners tried to add to the house, but the contractor ran off with their money. Eventually we want to finish it.

Here's before pic (or about 10 minutes into it when I realized I should take before and after pics):

And here's after pic, including the landscape fabric to keep future weeds away!
