We put the weed cloth down right away to try to kill off the grass before we pulled it up and we finally got around to digging up the backyard today. I wasn't feeling that great because I was still recovering from having another kidney stone so Devin dug up all of the grass and filled in low spots in the yard with it. I helped by pulling out leftover weeds and rocks. We got all of the weed block re-layed today and all of the plants planted. Now we need to pickup a truck full of gravel and some edging rock to finish it off. I think it looks much better with some plants in the back yard and I already have up a humming bird feeder which only the ants have visited so far; I need to put some more olive oil around the base.
