So I've experienced a few firsts this weekend. The weather has been gorgeous which isn't a first but it has been some time since we've had nice weather. Since the weather has been so nice Jacob and I have been out in the yard actually taking care of it. This is a first, now we mow the lawn and I attempt to kill weeds. I say attempt because yes I am sucessful at killing them but then I usually kill the grass around them as well. This is accomplished because I have either not diluted the weed killer by using it with the hose like I'm suppose to, or by buying weed killer that also kills grass. Needless to say when we bought weed killer this time Jacob is making sure I'm supervised when I use it. We also did some landscaping which is a first, we took out some shrubs that came with the house that we HATED and rearranged ones we already had AND got some new ones. I must say our yard looks beautiful front and back and I'm very excited.
We also had Stake Conference this weekend so for the Sunday morning meeting we were encouraged to walk to the Stake Center if it wasn't too far. It was about a 30 minute walk for us and it was wonderful, Savannah loves going for walks in the stroller and even slept most of the way home. So what was the "first" with this activity? I'll tell you, I was pooped on by a bird! Yes, its true I could still see the house when it happened. I thought someone's sprinkler had gotten my glasses wet until I took them off and saw what was on them. Oh yes and I got some on the side of my face too. I cleaned off my face and glasses and we continued out walk except I was terrified I would be hit again. That was a first I could have done without. Overall though its been a wonderful weekend and I really hope this nice weather continues.
