This weekend was less about work, and more about play. Our family friend's children, Jack and Elizabeth, came home with us on the boat Friday night and had lots of fun running around on the beach Saturday morning with the dogs.
Jack and Elizabeth's parents came down later in the morning and we had a great time relaxing on the beach with them. But of course, work had to be done! Mike and I said goodbye to our guests in the afternoon, and we had a marathon weeding session in the backyard. These things are MONSTERS! I have never seen a weed root this big in my entire life:

We pulled close to 300 of these out of our backyard (it's only about 35'x4o'.) We are hoping that the grass will ACTUALLY have a chance to grow now.
Sunday was a productive day! This weekend's "Weird Thing Found in The Basement" were two old oars covered in nails, and an old fireman's tool that they use to poke through floors of burning buildings. They were shoved up in the rafters and hanging by little bits of string. Go figure.
We also ordered a double papasan today - yay! Our dining room/great room/whatever you want to call it was in desperate need of a piece of furniture that looked "beachy." Hopefully it holds up to two adults and two dogs (which, by the way, were in heaven the moment the papasan arrived.)
Tada:
