PG Carnival
Shortly after we moved in, we got wind of a carnival. We all had lots of fun. Zach really enjoyed the roller coaster, and Liz loved the merry go round.... (kinda) :-) We even got suckered into paying five bucks for a little stuffed monkey!! Got to love carnivals!!
Update on our yard
So what have we done with our yard so far?
We learned that with all the rain we got this spring, our natural landscaping really took off...so the first thing we did, was rent a field mower. Little did we know that it was going to be a torrential downpour during our rental time. Oh well! At least it still worked. :-)
Next we learned that our fence had to be 48 feet back from the road. (Lame, but I'm over it) So, in order to have our fence at the same grade as the road, we needed a lot of dirt. Luckily, Devin and Julie had the hook up, so we've been able to get +30 truck loads of dirt for free!!! They even brought their front loader to push the dirt around for us.
Thank you!!!
It's been quite the adventure.

Recommendations Requested
Now that we officially have a house, and we're almost ready to move in. Our attention is moving to the outside of the house. We have ~1 acre of weeds. Any recommendations?
