This afternoon we went out to the backyard to help my husband clear the weeds. During the winter and early spring, the backyard looks green and pretty. However, as soon as the weather turns warmer, the green is replaced by lots of tall, brown, weeds. So, he got out the weed whacker to clear away the overgrown and now not so pretty weeds.

In the process, we came upon hundreds of lady bugs. The kids and I tried to relocate them before he mowed down their homes. Obviously, this was very time consuming and he was only able to finish a 1/4 of the yard before dark. Still, we all had a lot of fun playing with the lady bugs.
